Is it just me, or does it seem like EDS focuses more natural products?
Is seems like a lot of EDS products are organic? |

Hmmm, I don't get that sense. I feel like the majority of EDS is not into "natural" products. Though I will say that the interest in natural products and approaches has been growing here since I joined 3 years ago when very few would post on it, but it still feels like the minority. |

I haven't really been here that long, but it seems like there are people who prefer natural and people who prefer high science.
If I had to take a guess, I'd say the majority are just interested in whatever actually works. It doesn't really matter if it's synthetic or natural as long as it does what we want it to. |

I think you are right But yes, the natural camp has been growing! |

I completely agree. There prescence of organic lovers on EDS is very strong. |

I think people are generally wanting to live a "healthier" lifestyle. People are now more educated in the world we live in and want to take an approach to live a sustainable lifestyle. The whole "organic" idea appeals to many and this notion is growing (especially in the younger generation). For myself, I am careful in my product purchases mainly because of my love for animals. I really try to not buy products that test on animals and have found more natural/organic lines to have more of a cruelty free approach. |

I gather you're talking about the forum and not the spa?
I probably come off as someone who's pushing natural/organic products & diy, but I don't really keep track of what's natural and what's not. I just think if there's a simple, easy, inexpensive way to go, why not? And to me it's unnecessary to use something made up of a bunch of complicated ingredients and fillers, if I can just find the essential components, i.e. single ingredients, and use those. That way there's less chance of bad interactions, and less chance that it'll be discontinued or put out of easy reach one day.
Even using the few products I do, I've run into problems (with interactions). I'm relieved that I didn't have to eliminate all too much to get to the bottom of it. |
