| One of the primary reasons to supplement is to replace missing nutrients in our diet.
Supplementation is becoming more and more important because Food Nutrition is No Longer Adequate!
What Has Changed?
Modern growing techniques, preservatives, depleted soils as well as new cooking and refining processes have resulted in lower nutrition content in the foods you eat.
USDA tests showed spinach in 1948 with 158 milligrams of iron per 100 grams while the iron content of raw spinach today is only 2.7 milligrams per 100 grams. Processing, transport and storage further reduce nutrient content.
The refining process removes 70 to 75% of the minerals from our grains and then our cooking process destroys 20 to 50% of vitamins, some of the amino acids and all of the enzymes.

You can start replacing what is missing in your food by supplementing with whole food vitamins, high quality plant enzymes and chelated minerals.
