Lifeworks product - editor's choice

Vitamin D3
Green Health Watch Magazine recommends eating organic foods rahter than taking food supplements. Consequently, its mail order service, Lifeworks, only stocks supplements which cannot practically be obtained from foods.

We featured one of these, the bone food and anti-arthritis compound Osteo-trace in the last newsletter. The other is vitamin D3, which can only be obtained in sufficient quantities by exposing the skin to 20 minutes of sunshine a day between May and September in the UK.
