I apologize in advance if this is an inappropriate place for the question or if it has been covered already in another thread, but I imagine the quality of distributors is a big issue for most of you. Are we getting our money's worth(as in, the product is actually what its supposed to be) and can we be sure of non-contamination?
In that vein, I am thinking of buying Acai powder and Pomegranate, P40p from Beyond A Century. The prices are great. In fact, they almost seem too good--they're damn cheap, compared to most competitors I've seen. So that begs the question:
How do people feel about BAC? Are they confident in quality and safety of their products? I don't see much in the way of independent testing of their items, so it makes me a little wary.
Looking at the issue of Acai powder and Pomegranate, I noticed, for instance, that Duke Nukem says he gets his Acai(unless he's changed suppliers) from BAC, but his Pomegranate from FruitFast. I am kind of curious as to why(if he's lurking around); the added extra shipping costs alone would be a deterence, not to mention the difference in prices. Now FruitFast doesn't seem to offer Acai, but BAC offers both--does that mean FruitFast is better than BAC and he's only going with BAC for Acai because FruitFast lacks Acai as a product?
Also, do folks have favored suppliers that maybe they could list? Good prices, good quality, high assurance of safety.
Once again, my apologies if this is in the wrong forum. I saw a forum dedicated to this topic in the nootropic section, but not for general health care supplements.
