My doctor wants me to take a magnesium and zinc supplement every day. They are pretty pricey so I’m wondering what brands I can compare her recommendations to on price. The magnesium she recommends is from Designs for Health and the zinc is Pure Encapsulations.
Do you have a supplement brand you like that is of good quality?
I’ve been getting my supplements from Puritan’s Pride for 40 years. I watch for their “Buy one, get two free” sales.
Unless you have access to a chemistry lab, it is impossible for any consumer to know the “quality” of any supplement brand. Unlike, for example, an antihistamine pill, a supplement has no discernible immediate effects like making you stop sneezing or stop itching.
I usually use Sundown brand because it is reasonably priced, I have heard no scandals concerning them, and have not contracted any illness that I can attribute to them.
Whatever brand you choose, be sure to check prices at Amazon and other online retailers. And when shopping in-store, never pay full price.
