The
Real truth about supplements
Not
All Supplements are Created Equal.
There
are more supplements out there than I would care to count and
keep track of. So what is the biggest difference between all the
different supplements? In my world you can divide all supplements
into two categories:
1.
Whole Food Supplements
2. Chemically Manufactured Supplements
If
you follow along with the supplement news you will know that they
are always discovering a new vitamin, a new cofactor, a new mineral,
a new this or that. Now let me ask you a question, is it really
"new" or did man just discover it. Of course, man has just discovered
the importance of it.
Nature
is great. She provides everything we need in nature. Or said another
way, these new vitamins, minerals, cofactors and other newly discovered
essential minerals are already found in nature in whole foods.
Even if we don't know about them yet nature has always had them
in our food. So when whole food supplements are made they already
have and have always had all these newly discovered ingredients.
Now let me ask you a question. If we as humans just discovered
something, do you think the chemically manufactured supplements
have this newly discovered thing in it? NOPE! The only place to
get all the cofactors, minerals and essential nutrients before
we know about them is whole food supplements.
A
perfect example is Vitamin C. Everyone says vitamin c is the same
thing as ascorbic acid. That is like saying an egg shell is the
same things as an entire egg. They are completely different. Ascorbic
acid is only the "shell" around what is the rest of Vitamin C.
But when most people manufacture Vitamin C, they just manufacture
the shell or what is ascorbic acid. Whole foods have then entire
"inside" of every nutrient the whole foods supplements are supplying.
You
can get good vitamin and mineral sources, or you can get cheap,
not so good, imitation vitamins with parts missing. Which one
do you think will be better for you? Of course, the ones that
are whole, complete, and have everything your body needs to build
itself healthy and strong again.
This
means if you are going to take supplements, make sure you get
them from a good source. If the supplements are really cheap,
well, you usually get what you pay for. One of the best sources
I have ever found is a company called Standard Process. www.standardprocess.com
The only problem with them is you cannot buy them yourself. You
have to go through some doctor or other health care professional.
I get nothing to recommend these supplements to you, that is how
much I like them.
There
are other good lines of supplements as well. LifePak™ by Pharmanex
is also a great option. You can find out how to get these and
other supplements at my website www.bazuji.com.
