vitacost brand?
I've seen quite a few here on GCM who shop at Vitacost. Would you recommend the Vitacost brand for something like Olive Leaf Extract?
I used to shop at Lucky Vitamin and loved it. But their website is not working properly so I need to find a new company, for now at least. Are there other similar companies to Vitacost and LuckyVitamin for supplements, soaps, etc? I'm not finding some of the brands I like at Vitacost, at least for olive leaf extract.

Re: vitacost brand?
I don't have a lot of experience with Vitacost brand. I have heard really good things about Herb Pharm, although I don't have personal experiences with them. I don't know if they'd have everything you're looking for but they do have olive leaf extract.

Re: vitacost brand?
I just ordered a VC brand item for the first time (it's en route now). I'm to see what others say.

Re: vitacost brand?
i think the vitacost brand is fair. It's better than what you'd get at most stores but nowhere near brands like Standard Process, Nutricology, or Allergy Research. And it depends on the product, too. Some products are more fragile and the way they're processed makes all the difference.
