- Heleneh,
Thanks for that great video clip.
In addition to always checking EVERY bottle of Rx we bring home, supplements should also be checked.
Of course the reputation and sources/providers of the "supplier to us" (in the best sense) matter
but even the best pharmacist, herbalist or vendor can be affected, it's up to us to work with them to check the safety seals - and get out the magnifying glass to inspect capsules - with every new bottle.
Sad? Sure. Wise? Certainly. Two sets of eyes "proof reading" are always better than one. -

It appears that their are people who fraudently make what appears to be a certain medication and put them in wrappers that minic many of the major drug company's medications. In the capsules they may put chalk or anything to fool the person who is buying the medication. It is hard for the person buying the medication, doctor, pharmacy to figure this out, unless a laboratory tests what is the in the pill.
