Freeda Vitamins

Question:

A brief story...I finally got myself into Freeda's vitamin store this week. I told the gentleman behind the counter that I was on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet, and without looking up at me, he kind of grumbled, "Elaine Gottschall...great lady...helped thousands of people." Then he handed me a bottle of the B complex vitamins without Zinc and said, "This is what she wants you to take." I started asking about a multi-vitamin, claiming that I feel quite healthy and could maybe get the B vitamins in the multi-vitamin, and he wouldn't let me get it! "She has a regime and you should follow it" he barked at me. I managed to get him to sell me a small bottle Vitamin E, and he made me get the lowest potency. ("Always start low"). This store is amazing and I love the vitamins because you can easily crush them, cut them, chew them--and feel safe that there's nothing added that is illegal. If anyone comes to New York, you must check out Freeda's. Don't worry, he won't let you buy too much.

I will have to call him and tell him that I switched from without zinc to
with zinc and vitamin C. Isn't he a doll! You should meet his wife: she is as small as he is big. They recently, after knowing them 40 years had to use the diet for a member of the family and it worked. He is so grateful that I hope I can live up to their words.
