Hmmm kalau ada suplemen 'semulajadi' yang ada bahan2 di atas... Rasanya mungkin anda boleh fikir lagi sekali dan buatlah keputusan yang wajar...

Mungkin anda bertanya, macamana bahan2 ni boleh ada dalam suplemen2 tertentu? Ini kerana, tidak semua syarikat suplemen vitamin berdaftar dengan FDA.Oleh tu mereka menggunakan bahan2 yang diharamkan oleh FDA seperti dalam jadual di atas.

Shaklee adalah sebuah syarikat yang mengikuti peraturan FDA, oleh itu Shaklee tidak menggunakan bahan2 yang dilarang oleh FDA dan menggunakan label yang di-approve oleh FDA.


Jadi.. fikir2kan lah... Untuk kesihatan.. jangan ambil sebarangan suplemen...
