from the Environmental Defense Ocean's Alive site list: safe fish and fish oil supplements. Very
informative and highly recommended.
Supplement "truth in labeling"
campaign
The
Organic Consumers Association(OCA), along with the Naturally Occurring Standards Group, is launching a new "truth in
labeling" campaign that will enable consumers to distinguish between those vitamins and supplements that are truly natural
or organic and those that simply claim to be. Currently there is concern that the FDA, in accordance with the wishes
of the pharmaceutical industry, who supply 90% of all dietary supplements, allows vitamin companies to label their products
as "natural" or "organic" even if these supplements are composed of 90% synthetic ingredients, including
genetically modified organisms. Click below for more information and
