Default Hello from Vancouver, Canada!

Hi everyone,

I'm brand spanking new to this forum. Glad to be a part of the community. I look forward to all of our future discussions.

A bit about myself: I work within the nutritional supplements industry for various companies in Canada, focusing on Health Regulations (label claims, safety, efficacy) and on Quality Control (validation, QC testing, QA). I really enjoy this work as it's opened my eyes tremendously (used to be "pharma-all-the-way").

After seeing what I've seen and knowing what I know (and always learning), I want to hear what the community has to say, what concerns them, etc. Working with other companies, i've seen some really horrible products, quality control and business tactics (money driven, for example) and other companies that really care about their products. Interestingly, though, consumer perception would favour the money driven company and leave the smaller company out..I actually started a blog (mightygrasshopper.com) to dive into this stuff, create awareness about quality, safety and efficacy, and other lighter topics of course. Please take a moment to take a look and leave me feedback.

Anyway, enough of my blog! Well I look forward to hearing from all you...TOMORROW...bed time for me.

Hello, I am in St. Louis, Missouri. I think it's really wonderful that you are in Vancouver right now. How are you enjoying the Olympic Games? Are you happy with your country's performance in the games so far? You must really be having a blast.

I wish the Olympic Games could be held in St. Louis once more.
