What Are the Health Risks from Pesticides and Chemicals from Dietary Supplements?
by Larry Newman
Last month Kirkman® introduced its Ultra Tested™ products, which are laboratory tested for more than 950 contaminants. Included in what we test for are potentially harmful levels of heavy metals, pesticides, fungicides, herbicides, endocrine disruptors and chemicals.
No other nutritional supplement company in the world offer’s testing to this degree, but we believe this level of testing is necessary to ensure the safety of nutritional supplement products.

Delayed Grieving
by Leslie McCann
I spent five years defending my daughter’s needs to
professionals, to family members, to perfect strangers
and to my own husband. It was five years of pure
hell. See, for some reason, in our society if you don’t
have some sort of professionally labeled & drug-treatable
disorder, then there is nothing wrong with you.
Parents these days have children with all kinds
of problems: hyperactivity, food sensitivities that
lead to undesirable behaviors, sensory issues that lead
to undesirable behaviors, undiagnosed autism spectrum
Vitamin D

I recommend that all children have their Vit D levels checked
The doctor should order a 25OH Vit D3 level- the optimal level is between 60 and 80. Recent studies have shown benefits from Vit D in children with ASD Most children require at least 1000 iu of Vit D3 daily which is much less than is found in most supplements
