Man, my very own Discussion-level post! I'll start working on that. As for my list, I'm about 90% done with the first sweep, and then I'll go back through it and try to find better alternatives. One thing I've noticed so far is how outrageously high the dosages of some vitamins that makers generally sell! I knew it was above the FDA recommendations, but I didn't know that it was sometimes more than 3 orders of magnitude!
I heard that this is because your body won't absorb much of that dose in its synthetic, isolated, pressed-into-a-pill form, as they supposedly don't break down easily
Soon please! I am sad that I found out about this via Facebook rather than LW because I don't keep up fully with comments. But this is the best thing ever, thank you!
