Hello,
Nutritional supplements are not well regulated to say what they have in them. What is claimed and what is actually in the pills is usually different. The claims of the nutritional supplements are not studied in clinical tests.
They are closely related to food products and as such do not give any advantage to a plain healthy diet. In this context I cannot reasonably claim either supplement is superior.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
