Aldi are usually common names we know, just re-branded. They contract manufacture with well known companies, however...caution is required. There are many grades to supplements. Superior all the way to junk. Superior forms of supplements contain little or no excipients (binders/fillers like talc, carlcium carbonate, preservatives, colourings...all the stuff that makes it look, feel, taste and appeal to you). I can list off good and bad ones, but that would be considered slander![]()
Examples of poor quality ones may well include the Aldi brand. That's not to say they wouldn't use a good manufacturer, just that the quality of the products could well be the lower grade. So the first press olive leaf extract may go under their own brand (for example, Olive Leaf Australia), and the second or third press or even using the stems and leaves rather than the fruit may go into the inferior brand. I'm not suggesting Aldi do this, I'm just using it as an example. this goes with anything. Fish oil is PRIME example. There's fish oil, then there's fish cr&p. Pure fish oil, first pressed, using small fish, from the northern hemisphere that is in pure natural triglyceride form is VERY hard to find. There's only a couple on the market, and I can guarantee you would not find them in your bargain bin health food store/pharmacy/aldi![]()
you are wise to go to a health food store. Not only are you supporting a small business, but getting great advice and usually better quality products.
