Natural vs. Synthetic Vitamins
Anti-science mentality is prevalent in modern society. This is evidenced most clearly in a complete distrust of chemicals synthesized in a laboratory. But does the activity of a molecule depend whatsoever on the pathway from which it formed? Let's see why not. General Chemistry Tutorials:
