Consumer information regarding Nutraceutical Sciences Institute...?
I am looking to purchase herbs/oils online and have run across a site that sells products made by Nutraceutical Sciences Institute. Does anyone know anything (good or bad) about this company other than what their website tells? Particularly about the way their herbs are gathered and prepared... Animal testing... Et cetera. Is there somewhere I could find this information?
Thanks!

The origins of the New Testament are pretty well known to history. The earliest parts were written by Saul of Tarsis, and describe a wholly "spiritual messiah" who was sacrificed during Passover and rose again, offering salvation in heaven for the political woes of the Hebrew people. None of the other details of his life were recorded at that time. Over the next several centuries as the Christian religion spread around the Mediterranean, a literature of "pseudepigraphia" arose in the Greek language. These are stories written "in the voice of" sacred religious figures of the past. Pseudepigraphia existed for non-Christian religions before Christianity, but as Christianity spread there were many stories about Jesus. They filled out the biography of Jesus, including parts of his life not in the Bible. Of course there was no publication or printing, so all of these manuscripts were unique, but widely read and copied with improvements. Once Christianity became the official religion of the Roman Empire, these manuscripts were collected and anthologized into the New Testament. Unused manuscripts were declared "heretical" and many of them (but not all) were destroyed. Some heretical and apocryphal manuscripts about Jesus survived. There are also a few examples of "pious forgery", where information about Jesus was inserted into copies of contemporaneous Roman texts (the Josephus forgery, for example).

It's operated and staffed by people who have a vested interest in selling those" remedies "
Since it's not run by an impartial group it's not a true science institute ,but a marketing center
