Nutrition Stocks on the Upswing - Fuse Science and Herbalife Showing Impressive Growth

I apologize if this has already been posted since it's old news from 7 days 6 hours 35 minutes ago - Marketwire via Comtex however I don't remember having seen it...

Despite coming under increased scrutiny, shares of companies focused on nutrition have been on an impressive run of late. TickerSpy's Nutrition Products Stocks Index (RXNTR) is up roughly 8.6 percent over the last month -- outperforming the S&P 500 by 4.2 percent. Five Star Equities examines investing opportunities in the Nutrition industry and provides investment research on Fuse Science Inc. (PINKSHEETS: DROP) and Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE: HLF).

The nutritional supplement sector is not without criticism. In late 2011, the British Daily Mail newspaper, in their report on two pieces of research, one published in the International Journal of Epidemiology, suggested that the vitamin and mineral supplements do next to nothing for one's health. A 2011 review titled, 'Trash the Vitamins: Convince Your Patients,' published in Archives of Internal Medicine, even suggested dietary supplements can actually promote a higher risk for death.

Dr. Carrie Ruxton from the Health Supplements Information Service told the Daily Mail that the "findings should be treated with extreme caution given the poor methodology and lack of reliable information about the health of participants, or the type of diets consumed."
