How To Buy Supplements Online

Introduction

When looking to buy supplements online, you will want to take into account if the online store has reasonable prices, if their shipping is quick and most importantly, that you're getting what you paid for.  Some online supplement stores from over seas will promise you one product and will sneakily send you another, without you even noticing.  However, on the plus side, a lot of online supplement stores will offer you the same product for a fraction of the cost of what you'd pay for it at a walk in vitamin shop or store. 

Step 1

If you belong to a gym or even have friends who are into fitness and working out, you could simply ask around and see which website they buy supplements from.  Many people will not mind giving you their suggestion and opinions on which online sites they find trustworthy and reasonably priced.  You also can do some basic research online, on body building forums, weight loss forums and general health forums.  Many other people also have a hard time trying to figure out where to buy supplements, so you're bound to run into a couple people posting on forums with the same questions as you have.  

Step 2

Once you find a website that has a good reputation, you can go to the websites official web page.  You can check out what supplements they have for sale and determine if they have the supplements you need and/or want. There is usually a search feature on every website that allows you to buy supplements.  Use the search feature and type in the name of the supplement you're looking for.  Determine if the supplements are listed under a well known and established manufacturer brand.  If so, then they are usually almost always reputable.  

Step 3

You then will want to do some more research pertaining to the price of the supplement.  Open a new tab on your browser and go to your favorite search engine.  Type in the name of the supplement you're looking for and add the word 'buy' to the search engine query. You then should see a piled list of results.  Go ahead and browse through the results and see what other online supplement stores are offering the same product for.  If the supplement if you're seeking is cheaper through another online store, then go with that one, but also take into account their shipping charges.  If the original online store has the cheapest price, then continue on. 

Step 4

When you want to buy supplements online, you will usually need a credit card, checking account, debit card or pay pal account.  You will need these in order to pay for the supplements you want to buy, so have one of these handy.  Once you've decided which store you want to buy supplements from, go ahead and add the supplement to your 'basket' or 'cart' inside the online store.  Once you've added all the supplements you want to buy, you can then proceed to the check out process offered at the online store. 

Step 5

Once you're at the check out process.  You will be asked to enter your shipping and billing information on their secure forms.  Enter all your information, but make sure it is correct.  Once you proceed to the next page, you then will be asked to enter your payment method.  You then will need to enter your credit card number, debit card number, pay pal account or checking account along with other pertinent information that the site asks of you.  Always make sure the site you buy supplements from has a secure check out process, meaning your on a secure server and your financial information will not be shared with anyone other than the billing department of that particular site. Once you hit enter, you will have purchased the supplements.  Make sure you keep a record of your order number as well as your shipment number, once the items are shipped to you.
