My experience:
I tried some cheap versions at a discount store and was displeased with them, so I decided to try Swanson Vitamins (on-line website) because I was looking for good, inexpensive vitamins. I take a lot of vitamins due to an auto-immune thyroid disease and it can be quite costly to buy vitamins at the store of even off other on-line sites. I did a little research and found that they had great shipping prices, great quality of vitamins and supplements, and had a large array of items to choose from. Suffice to say, I was VERY pleased with my purchases and I feel they are high quality and for such a great deal! Delivery was super fast! And the packaging was great.
PROS: Just about everything you can think of! Great, quality of vitamins. They offer not just Swanson brand, but other brands as well. It isn't confusing to use the website like others are, it is easy to either look up exactly what you are looking for, or to LOOK it up by the symptoms. There is a great deal of information listed, also for what each and every supplement does. For instance if you look under for "blood sugar" a number of supplements will come up as a result and will specifically describe what each supplement does for blood sugar. The packaging is great. I think Swanson Brand vitamins are of excellent quality, in my opinion. I notice a difference between them and other cheaper brands. Don't let the prices fool you! You can order anything from minerals, supplements, herbs, coconut oil, almonds, Artificial sweeteners, etc. Save a trip to the drugstore! You will save tons of money! For instance, COQ10 is somewhat of an expensive supplement, yet on Swanson Vitamins, it is a lot cheaper than you would find in a store. I find the Virgin Coconut Oil to be 5$ less than even DISCOUNT vitamin stores! Your supplements are safely wrapped in bubble wrap and will not come broken or torn from delivery. Shipping is inexpensive, delivered to your door is not a bad idea. I used to buy from places like Drugstore on the internet, and found that to be costly. I cannot believe the array of vitamins they have even odd ones I am looking for. I usually will want a protein powder, some amino acids, Evening Primrose Oils (and I recommend this site for EPO oil), fish oils, Stevia, and Virgin Coconut Oil. What other site could you find all these things in one place?
A summary of what Swanson Vitamins offer:
Shipping: Fast and timely.
Costs: Discounted always, and sometimes even on more of a sale.
Shipping costs: $4.95, First-time customers can sign up and get a two-dollar shipping cost discount.
Quality and Cost: Bar none, the best quality and deals. I have bought very expensive supplements and these compare to the best. For example my B-Stress vitamins regularly were 15$ a bottle per month. The B-Stress vitamins on Swanson were comparable, with even better and more ingredients than I was looking for and for about half the price or less!
Health: When taking your health into consideration, it is best to get the BEST out there. Cheap imitations won't help you, in fact they may even harm your health. Do your research and make your decisions.
Information and their website: It is easy to navigate through the website and find what you are looking for. They have FULL ingredient lists. For instance, I am allergic to soy, so I will ALWAYS look for the ingredients to see if there is soy in them as a filler. I could get very ill if I found out there was soy in them. This makes it easy to do that. I find other sites out there do NOT have the ingredients listed. I find it to be a very convenient site. They have a search engine, as well looking up by product, brand, health issue, etc. They also have an FAQ section. They have a great deal of information on what each product does, which is very nice to have. For instance if you look up cinnamon as supplement, you will find that is a blood-sugar regulator. This is more information than most drugstore bottles or on-line sites will tell you.
Customer Service: This is great, they will get back to you in a timely manner and answer whatever question you need.
Cons: NONE!
If I could, I would work for this company! I am BIG on health and the quality of what we put into our bodies!
