A firm
foundation for good health depends
on vitamins and minerals, which we
can get from our diet or from
dietary supplements. Here are two
main reasons why we should seriously
consider the second resource.
Food is missing many vital
nutrients. Food is different today
than it was 100 or even 50 years
ago. For one thing, the soil on
which much of our food is grown is
critically depleted of minerals.
Also consider that the feed given to
livestock raised on factory farms is
a far cry from the nutrient-rich
grass and grains they dined on in
years gone by. Fruits, vegetables,
and legumes are assaulted with
chemical pesticides and herbicides,
and this raw food is further
stripped of its nutrient content by
high heat and other production
methods used during the
manufacturing process. It seems that
for all the nutrients removed during
processing, an equal amount of
harmful substances like hydrogenated
fats and unbelievable amounts of
sodium are added. And honestly, the
majority of us seem to like it that
way.
The food we eat today simply does
not give us all of the vitamins and
minerals we need. Yet so many parts
of your metabolism depend on
vitamins, minerals, and essential
fats that you cannot have an optimal
metabolism without them.
A huge amount of Australians are
deficient in one or more essential
vitamins and minerals, and even more
Australians are deficient in the
essential omega-3 fatty acids. That
means almost everyone needs TWO
basic supplements to maintain good
healthy and an optimal metabolism.
For basic nutritional support,
consider taking:
1. A multivitamin and mineral
combination
2. An omega-3 fatty acid supplement
