Do It Yourself (14 Jan 98) The local supermarket where I shop for groceries is in no way a "health food" store, but they now have a rack with assorted diet supplements, as an indicator of how popular "alternative" medications are getting. The only products in that category that I use are, occasionally, the relatively proven Vitamin C and Vitamin E. But a quick scan revealed the following, many of which are taken and praised by various listmembers.: B-12 Lysine B Complex NADH Beta Carotene Niacin Calcium Papaya Chromium Picolinate Potassium Gluconate Coenzyme Q 10 Primrose Oil Cranberry Pycnogenol DHEA Saw Palmetto Fish Oil Shark Cartilage Folic Acid Soya Lecithin Garlic St. John's Wort Gingko Biloba Vitamins (all kinds) Ginseng Zinc Glucosine Sulfate Complex I don't know what it all means, except there must be a lot of people out there who aren't fully satisfied with doctor- prescribed medication.
