I just received a letter from the United Mitochondrial disease foundation to which I belong.
seems Vitaline, Epic4Health and Tishcon have teamed up "with UMDF to offer special supplement pricing for mito patients." they announced discounts of up to 60% (am unsure of what the "up to" translates to..)Epic4Health gets all its products directly from Tishcon, an FDA regulated facility. and Vitaline Formulas is the manufacturing company which provided the coq10 in the original study by Drs. Clifford Shults and Flint Behl in which the use of 1200 mgm/day resulted in a decrease in progression of symptoms in early PD patients. I know there are several individuals on this forum who belong to PD foundations--think one of these groups would be interested in obtaining a discount for PD patients? I do not belong to any PD groups at present, but would be more than willing to help those who do belong to plead our case for groups discounts on vitamins and supplements. madelyn

anyone familiar with this group "PWP"which offers "group discount" advantages?
http://www.pwpgroup.com/index.html Introduction pargraph: We began as a resource center for People With Parkinson's Disease. Then we grew to include other Neurological Diseases, Caregivers, Health Professionals and other interested Parties. We have now found many of the supplements we provide access to are sought out by individuals with other diseases such as HIV/Aids. Our buying group is now open to everyone it can be of service to. Our goal is to approach suppliers with the vision of all of us as a single buyer and receive volume discounts on medicines and supplements. There are no membership fees or monthly dues. Just by using the access we provide you are enjoying the discounts of the group and are supporting our efforts. The more of us that we represent, the more bargaining power we have. If this is your first visit you can start at About PWP Group.
