Ageless Xtra?...

Anyone heard of this stuff? As far as I can figure, it seems to be mega doses of vitamins, minerals and herbs. It's supposed to replace old damaged cells with new healthy ones. Is this bogus? Does it really work?

Jean,

I will sound negitive but......at this time I am starting to worry about products that are grown in 3rd world countries, they don't have to follow the same rules as the farmers in this country do, ie: pesticides, how the product is handled, fertilizer.

I don't trust anything made outside the U.S. either anymore. I won't even buy fruit out of season, or that is shipped from other countries...well, except bananas and mangos.

I was hearing that people should not buy anything that comes from China anymore, because they are not handled safely, and their safety standards are so low. Look at all the scares lately...toothpaste, pet food, all sorts of stuff...all from China. And Mexico had that spinach scare.

I think I'll just stick with Centrum silver and good old American stuff.

Anyway, if you take a multi vitamin and watch your diet, you should be healthy enough. The main thing is exercise. I cannot stress enough how much aerobic exercise helps your body. Cells need oxygen!

And think about this...new cells are made up of what you eat, so if you eat poorly, you will not be able to correct that with any amount of vitamins and supplements. The old adage "You are what you eat" is really true. Millions of cells die in our bodies every day. Are your new cells made of junk food, or of good, healthy food? Garbage in, garbage out...just like a computer.
