    I was looking into trying out some fruit and veg supplements as I don't get enough of them into my diet and feel they would give more benefit than I am receiving atm,
    But anyway I was wondering does anyone have any experience with trying any off these or know people who have tried them? and what's peoples views on them?

    Yeah most people haven't heard of them and its hard to find information online about them that is why I said I would ask in case people have information about them

    I can see the marketing campaign now:

    fruit and veg supplements!
    for people who are too lazy to eat actual fruit or veg.

    we're being factious but really. just eat fruit and veg.

    What are you going to do with a veg supplement? I can understand a vitamin supplement as people may have a deficit of vitamins. but if you're having a vegetable deficit then eat some veg.

    Youre obviously looking at your health and trying to find a way to improve it. its not through supplements its through basic diet. Nothing fancy or complicated.

    Your gran will tell you. eat your meat and two veg at dinner time and youll grow up to be big and strong.

    Thanks for that ;)

    I Was only looking for opinions,
    But yeah I suppose there's just no way like the real way.

    most people who take supplements are already healthy enough, because they look after their health - good quality food, fruit and veg

    the health food supplement industry know this and market their product at these people who are already healthy, but are willing to spend cash to ensure that they are healthy
