"Hi, I'm Rachael Richardson, I'm a licensed nutritionist and registered dietitian with Nutrolution in South Beach Florida. In this clip we're going to talk about why you should take high quality supplements. So I recommend supplements all the time in my practice and one question I get a lot is I'll recommend a certain supplement such as let's say omega 3 fatty acids, fish oils. And my client will say, OK, well I'll just go to Walgreens and pick some up for $5.99 and they ask me if that's OK and of course I say no, that's absolutely not OK. You really need to differentiate between pharmaceutical grade supplements and over the counter supplements because there's a huge difference and you've heard the expression that you get what you pay for and its never been more true than in the case of supplements. So I do like to bring up omega 3 fatty acids and I've got actually a very high quality form right here, its actually made by Pharmax and Genestra, its called Super EFA Plus and one of the things about this, about omega 3's is that if you buy over the counter, you might be receiving all kinds of different toxic metals and PCBs in your oil that will then go into your body and cause different types of problems. So you really need to focus on high quality supplements and this has been Rachel with Nutrolution in South Beach, Florida."
