Why Healthy People Need a Vitamin Supplement
If you have enjoyed general good health, many people
assume that they do not require or see a need to take
a daily vitamin supplement. Why would one consider taking
a supplement, especially a very nutrient dense supplement
(like one derived from aloe vera and sea vegetables).
To answer this type of question we need to examine our
lives over the long term. Many of the most serious types
of illness, the ones that are debilitating such as cancer,
diabetes, and heart disease, do not occur overnight.
They are the result of long processes that occur over
years. What is frightening is that we don't recognize
the symptoms until the disease has progressed far enough
that we are too late for complete recovery.
Being healthy today is no guarantee to being healthy
tomorrow. As we age, our body processes change and our
risk to debilitating disease increases. It may be because
of the growing trend in alternative medicine that the
medical community and associated experts are beginning
to agree that disease prevention is the key to maintaining
optimal health. That bears repeating disease prevention
is the key to maintaining optimal health.
So how do we begin to prevent diseases from occurring
in our bodies? Most of us can agree that living someplace
where there are toxins in the ground we walk on, in
the air we breathe, in the water we drink or in the
foods we eat are not good for us. Prolonged contact
with toxins causes our bodies to deteriorate and eventually
become prone to sickness and disease. So what do we
do, we don't play at the trash dump, we require local
factories to minimize air pollution, we drink bottled
water, and we try to eat healthy every day.
But what happens if we find that the trash dump is
contaminating the ground water, or the local factory
is
polluting the air? We usually take immediate steps to
change the situation. But what about the foods we eat
every day?
In 1985, more than 20 years ago, an Earth Summit held
in Brazil by developed countries throughout the world
(including the US) determined that the soils we grow
our food in were significantly depleted in nutrients.
And this same summit identified the US as having as
much as 85% of its farming soils depleted of key nutrients.
We have seen the results. The Food and Drug Administration
has continually raised the amount of servings of many
foods, in part, to keep pace with soil depletion. To
put it in grocery terms, a serving of 5 pieces of broccoli
50 years ago now requires nearly 10 for the same nutritional
content. Two bananas now require almost 4. The list
goes on for nearly everything grown in our soils.
So what do we do? We supplement. We supplement with
something that includes Vitamins A, C, D, and the B-complex
vitamins, minerals such as calcium, cobalt, copper,
magnesium, and selenium, and the amino acids, fatty
acids and enzymes. How do we get all of this ,surprisingly
they are all included in a supplement
comprised of aloe vera and sea vegetables!
