The Truth About Nutrition Supplements...

With todays bad farming and supermarket practises, most fresh food lacks adequate minerals and vitamins. Food and Vitamin Supplements are now vital in a healthy diet!

Until 50 years ago nutrition supplements were unnecessary, fresh food contained adequate quantities of minerals and vitamins to supply our normal dietary requirements.

20 to 30 years ago, research indicated that food quality had seriously declined, but nutrition supplements were expensive and bought mainly by the wealthy.

Food grown and stored using todays farming and supermarket practices is seriously deficient in minerals and vitamins, but fortunately mineral and vitamin supplements are cheap enough to be a vital part of most everybody's diet.

The minerals our body requires are supplied largely from plants which have absorbed the minerals from the soil they were grown in. Todays large scale single field cropping means minerals have been removed from the soil and not replaced.

Todays farmers are interested in turning a profit and will put back into the soil the barest minimum of fertilizers and minerals so crop quality suffers.

To make matters worse, plants are reaped while they are unripe and treated with special chemicals (normally a gas) to keep them in the unripened state so they can be stored for longer periods. They are then treated with chemicals to make them ripen and placed on the shop shelves.

The end result is no matter how much fresh food you eat, you will not be able to consume enough to supply your normal daily vitamin and mineral requirements. Nutrition supplements in the form of Vitamin and mineral supplementation is now vital for a normal healthy diet.
