RECURSO: Examine.com | Independent Analysis on Supplements & Nutrition

Independent Analysis on Supplements & Nutrition | Examine.com


Citando:

"What is Examine.com? We were frustrated.
There was no place we could turn to in order to get unbiased information on supplements. Sure, there was Wikipedia, but it wasn’t getting deep into the science. Everyone else? Had an agenda. Supplement companies misrepresenting science. Media sensationalizing headlines. Companies and individuals pushing unneeded supplements and other products onto you.

That’s why Examine.com started in 2011. Fully independent from the start, we’ve never sold any supplements. Or done any coaching or consulting. Or any kind of advertising or sponsorship.
Our goal from day 1 has always been: read the research, make sense of it, and put it online. We’re an education company that looks at the research — nothing more, nothing less.

And that’s why we’re the trusted brand. We have an entire team, from medical doctors to researchers to professors to pharmacists. Collectively, we come to a consensus that you can trust.

That’s why we’re here. We do the hard work for you."
