Now excuse me if I sound a little naive, or maybe I'm still confusing which EmPower everyone's referring to (but I don't think so).
But what's the big deal? I read the list of ingredients, the potency, & how many capsules a day are to be taken. What's unusual about it?
None of the potencies are very high, none of the vitamins & minerals in it can't be found in foods, & no one ingredient is emphasized over another. Many don't even reach 100% of the RDA of such nutrients. A person could get all these vitamins & minerals in a healthy, well-balanced diet & they, too, would be in chelated form as it's found naturally.
So why is there such a hullabaloo about this supplement? And why is it supposedly better than eating a healthy diet? The formulation is no more superior over that of vitamins & minerals in foods. I'd like to hear from someone on why this is different, please.
