That- I have never heard of, and who says that the food you eat is nutritious in the first place?
Despite an (allegedly)
healthy -
organic -
home cooked -
pesticide/herbicide free food intake, you can still get vitamin and mineral deficiencies........because-
1. the food has been grown on mineral depleted soil
(or what an animal eaten has been grown on mineral depleted soil)
2. your body's capacity to absorb them is impaired by prescription drugs
- even by something as apparantly harmless as antacid (Zantak)
Vitamins are useless without minerals
United Nations 1992 Earth Summit Report documents declining mineral values in farm and range soils over past 100 years:
North America 85% South America 76% Europe 72% Asia 76% Africa 74% Australia 55%
