As with all e-mail and hard copy newsletters from all sources (Mercola, Whitaker, Wright, Douglass, Williams, Weill - ended his..., Rowan, West, etc.), read them carefully, but it's safer to hold them in your craw with a question mark and cross reference everything. Mercola like many others is "selling stuff" and when they're selling stuff I'm even more careful about trusting a one-source read. Don't get me wrong, Mercola has put out some good information. The Health Ranger, Mike Adams, at Natural News isn't selling anything and has an excellent e-newsletter. He also has a Biophotonic score of 80 - the highest I'm aware of. My Biophotonic score is only 66 - - and Mike puts out a lot of great health info. It's just that I like to see at least two (and usually more) sources saying the same thing - and then some proof. There are few supplement makers and many "names" get them from the same source. I've been taking multi-vitamins for about as long as Mercola has been alive and I've never been poisoned and I don't fear any toxic build-up. If you take a good source multi-vitamin - mineral, I don't think you're going to have any problems.
