4 MEDICATIONS AND SUPPLEMENTS YOU SHOULD NOT BUY AT DOLLAR TREE
Below, these are the products that you should not buy for Grant Harting:
1. Fish oil
- The brand bottle People’s Choice contains only 18 capsules and costs US$1.25, a normal price at the Dollar Tree store. According to the Mayo Clinic, it explains that fish oil is a dietary source of omega 3 fatty acids and that people take it, in addition, for its anti-inflammatory effects. Harting, however, considered a “scam” the supplement because only 1000 milligrams per serving, when the daily dose is 1 to 3 grams daily. “Serving size is two soft gels… There are only 18 softgels here. You should take two a day. It’s just nine days of therapy for US$1.25. Actually, that’s not a good deal.”.
2. Ginseng
- People take ginseng to increase overall energy and manage stress, depression and diabetes. Harting notes that the 30 500-milligram tablets per serving, which comes in the People’s Choice brand bottle, would only provide therapy for 15 days. “You probably might need 250 milligrams per day or 500 milligrams per day. It depends on what you are using it for. Although this is a bit misleading, it is not a scam. It’s a little harder to understand how much you’re taking”Harting said.
3. Test Booster
- Test Booster, from the brand Nature’s Science, promises to increase the user’s testosterone in a convenient way. The package is labeled as a dietary supplement and includes 12 capsules, but Harting says: “you should never buy it“, because he does not believe that the product is manufactured in the USA.”I had to look for the products and they don’t do anything. Is that a surprise to anyone?” he added.
4.Advil
- Advil is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, whose compound is Ibuprofen. When Harting saw a woman in the store picking up two boxes of Advil brand, he said: “In my opinion, all I want is to take the Dollar Tree brand”. For the specialist, generic medications contain the same active ingredients as the more expensive brand name ones, although the prices at the Dollar Tree are relatively low, they even buy their products to resell them on Amazon.
