A very happy Thanksgiving to all our customer friends! Enjoy the time with your family and loved ones.
Best wishes from everyone at Natural Health Formula
The unsung hero of our operation is William. If you have called in by phone - he rarely ever directly answers the phone. But he is always there looking over the store. Keeping a steady eye on everything.
To honor, Williams long and unfailing duty we have created a website Halo-Pets.com which carries a full line of William’s favorite tipple and treats. You see William is no ordinary dog - at least not in his books. As an equal, he demands equal status at the dinner table or at least the occasional crust. 
Halo Pets all natural food and herbal products are equivalent quality to human food products. William has a particular liking for the Liv-A-Little Chicken freeze dried treats. However, there is a problem…..
The Liv-A-Littles come in 2.5oz containers and William is a 90lb hound and mainly muscle.
None the less William is proud and happy to recommend Halo Purely for Pets to his other friends both cats and dogs. Travel over to Halo-Pet.com and see the picture of William hanging out there!
Jarrow are a high quality brand at value prices. 
Jarrow is a very popular brand with many avid and loyal customers. On MyHealthMyWorld we offer more than 200 brands. Sometimes you can "miss the tree for the woods" - we therefore thought that we would build a repository of Jarrow information and shopping experience that is focus just on the JARROW brand. We called this site JustJarrow.com. It is 100% Jarrow!
JustJarrow lists in excess of 300 Jarrow products. Explore and browse through the catalog. Or read in depth information about products from an extensive list of multi-page product specific leaflets lsiting scientific references and other supporting data.
If you are a Jarrow affectionado - www.JustJarrow.com maybe your favorite resource.
Summer may have cooled off - but we are cooking with activity. Sometime back we became accredited members of the Better Business Bureau and have been in good standing since. Last month our computer guys added ScanAlert accreditation to our list.
ScanAlert is the industry standard that helps assure you our customers, that our site has low vulnerability to hackers. We are proud to be awarded the certificate - but we would also like customers to know that we do not store any credit card information within our site. You can feel secure with us due to our professionalism.
Not very exciting news! (well at least not to anyone other than our computer guys). But we have some exciting news coming down the tube - or rather up the well………..
We recently made two upgrades to your site that we hope have assisted customers in navigating through our vast list of products and product information.
- The first is to add Google Custom search to each and every page. We have teamed with Google to use their context specific search to return relevant search terms within and specifc to the site, www.MyHealthMyWorld.com. Look for the search field in the amber box in the top right hand corner. We think it is a big improvement on prior search - let us know your opinion!
- For many of the major brands that we offer such as New Chapter, Jarrow, or Now Foods - we have 100s and 100s of products. We recently introduced a color coded alphabetical list to facilitate scrolling through the products. This seems to work really well according to feedback - at least we hope so.
Please let us know by phone or email what you think and any ideas for improvement that you have. Thanks!
In line with our emphasis on providing great on-line information, we have for some time been shipping product literature with most of our shipments.
One question that seems to be causing confusion is the storage conditions for PROBIOTIC products such as Dophilus and New Chapter brands. We store ALL probiotics in refrigerated storage to ensure maximum freshness and viability. This is NOT common practice on-line retailers.
We thought that PROBIOTICS as a class of products deserved some special attention and therefore we have created a web resource specific to this objective of informing and educating. You can see the fruits of our efforts at www.dophilus.com. Let us know what you think!
For sometime we have been promoting New Chapter. This month we are featuring Jarrow.
Jarrow is a well known supplier whose tag line:
Superior Nutrition and Formulation
Pretty much captures the company mission very well. We recent wrote a short article on Jarrow , you can read it here. Jarrow is celebrating its 30th birthday this year and we though t it fitting to do so by offering the lowest prices we have ever had on their products.
Enjoy it while it lasts!!
We recently obtained some very comprehensive information providing scientific data backing the use of many key active compounds used in natural health supplements. The information is directed towards the New Chapter brand but the information can be thought of as being more generic.
If you are an avid customer for New Chapter (I am myself), you will find the new site www.health1on1.com both informative and interesting!
After many months of discussion FDA Issues Dietary Supplements Final Rule has been issued (Friday 22 June 2007). This tightens the loop hole used by some lower quality manufacturers. Raising the quality bar to a minimally acceptable level without undue cost is strongly supported. For 80% of manufacturers this has no ramification as they already follow cGMP. Read more about it here:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration today announced a final rule establishing regulations to require current good manufacturing practices (cGMP) for dietary supplements. The rule ensures that dietary supplements are produced in a quality manner, do not contain contaminants or impurities, and are accurately labeled.
"This rule helps to ensure the quality of dietary supplements so that consumers can be confident that the products they purchase contain what is on the label," said Commissioner of Food and Drugs Andrew C. von Eschenbach, M.D. "In addition, as a result of recent amendments to the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, by the end of the year, industry will be required to report all serious dietary supplement related adverse events to FDA."
The regulations establish the cGMP needed to ensure quality throughout the manufacturing, packaging, labeling, and storing of dietary supplements. The final rule includes requirements for establishing quality control procedures, designing and constructing manufacturing plants, and testing ingredients and the finished product. It also includes requirements for recordkeeping and handling consumer product complaints.

David Seckman, executive director and CEO of the Natural Products Association said:
We’ve waited nearly 13 years for this important regulation and are anxious to thoroughly review it and let members know exactly what it will mean to them…. With recent concerns raised about the safety of food ingredients, implementation of this regulation will help to bolster consumer confidence and keep standards high throughout the industry.
MyHealthMyWorld and all at Natural Health Formula Co-op agree.
Our coop is continuing to expand, and we are very pleased to be able to announce an additional site that focuses upon hard to find natural wholefoods and other natural products. For sometime we had want to be able provide a wider range of specialized foods and herbal ingredients. To do this, we have launched www.NatureCoop.com, a website that is dedicated to mainly organic and natural food and supplements.
We will continue to provide the same vast range of quality brand products at MyHealthMyWorld.com. However, we felt that it would be better to create a new site identity rather than expect you to try and navigate through the same single site.
If you like www.MyHealthMyWorld.com, we hope you will love www.NatureCoop.com.
