My Absolutely Favorite Place to Buy Supplements and Personal Care Products

A Review of Iherb.Com

I used to peruse the vitamin aisles of Whole Foods and my local co-op, and would long for all of the supplements. I even cashiered at a chain health food store, and I must admit, I envied those who could easily shell out $100 on 4 bottles of supplements. I did the generic supplements at CVS, Walgreens and Walmart, and then I got smart about label reading: most of their stuff is nothing but fillers! Why plague my body with those? No wonder I kept taking those and never saw improvements in my health! I wanted to have superb skin, I wanted to have better digestion, I wanted my nails to stop breaking, I wanted my hair to look better, I wanted to feel better. But not at the price of contaminating myself with inferior products. So as my tastes got more refined (and of course, more costly), the prospect of meeting my supplemental needs seemed farther and farther away. How on earth could I afford what was at the stores?

Usually, I don't really espouse online shopping, because first of all, it's addicting, and secondly, who needs to spend more time on the internet? Between reading e-mails and surfing the web, to researching for papers, I think I spend about four hours easily per day in the morning, and then search for jobs and other things for another two hours at night. Six hours a day? Thank god I don't add to that with TV-watching. But still!
