DESCRIPTION: The majority of dietary supplement facilities tested were found noncompliant with good manufacturing practices guidelines.
We have shifted to a new look for our videos, pulling in motion graphics design specialists to help mix things up. This one was done by Julien Herman ( one of four teams of contractors we’re currently working with. Julien contributes from France and says he’s “happy to contribute to NutritionFacts.org and feels lucky to be part of the team.”
Tomorrow’s video will be created by a different designer. It’s up to you to tell us which you like better. In the comments please include your thoughts on the new look, and which format you like better.
In other words, which do you like better?
• Daniel’s style in Should Vitamin D Supplements Be Taken to Prevent Falls in the Elderly? (
• Tyler’s style in Benefits of Green Tea for Boosting Antiviral Immune Function (
• or Julien’s style in this one?
Please let me know!
And if you or someone you know is an expert in motion graphics software and would like to become team number five, please check out our Employment Opportunities ( page.
Isn’t the supplement thing cray-cray? This reminds me of the Black Raspberry Supplements Put to the Test ( video.
