I read snippets of poelpe hear who use it, as they mention the name in their post.

Does anyone know if this company is reputable?

I am being encouraged to give my son the DHA gummies form Natures Sunshine. The women does enrgy work, and doesn't sell the product. But, she has used it in her family, and once did sell. It's as if her training is only matched with Nature Sunshine Products because anything else I bring in there is hard for her to read.

I would be more suspicious if she sold it, but she has no more vested interest in it. She has given this product to her grandson. Of course I woory about heavy metals. Keebler......could really use your input too right about now.......ET, I mean Keebler-home.

Thanks As always-

According to this blog, they DO contain "natural flavors" which means they could contain just about anything the manufacturer wants to put in them, including MSG.

Overall, the Nature's Sunshine products are very good and I would certainly choose these gummies over the leading national brand if I had to "choose."

I doubt she would give it to her grandson if she felt is was bad.

If you really want to know if the product will work for your son, ask someone else (at a different practice) to energy test him to double check the results. Don't tell this person anything about the product, your concerns, nothing. I've done this with things I questioned simply to double check my results. Also, I would bring several products to check.

Thanks Tutu and Catgirl.

Would you choose Nature's Sunshine over Nordic Naturals Tutu?

I looked at that youtube video. I don't think I trust myself to do it.

IDK. I did look for someone here where I live catgirl, and it comes up dry, atleast on the computer. I could check the phone book though.

Been using their products for many years. My herbalist uses them. They are considered a very reputable company.
