Many of
products you see in market have also been sitting on a shelf for indefinite periods of time. Some products on shelf may be years old. I would strongly recommend staying away from such products. You need to learn how to read labels if you are to find a good supplement but as I have discovered there are not many in most stores.
Your body can only recognize and absorb substances that are natural and in whole food form. Fruits and vegetables contain nutrients in perfect ratios and proportions. Vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids, bioflavanoids and other bionutrients are in perfect balance in these foods. Your cells can only be nourished with perfect ratios and proportions of these natural whole foods. God knows best!
Most supplements contain isolated nutrients, synthetic nutrients, and inappropriately combined nutrients. You can not just take individual nutrients from many sources and then combine them into one supplement. This is how many of supplements on market are manufactured. This method of combining and manufacturing results in a product that is not useful or healthy to your cells.
Even if a supplement contains all natural ingredients, it may not be serving you well. Nature and whole foods have only perfect combination and proportions of nutrients. When you start pulling vitamins here and minerals there from many sources, you destroy these unique nutrient combinations and proportions that your cells require for proper assimilation and absorption.
As an analogy, let us take water for example. The molecular structure of water is H20. In this perfect structure you have a compound that is vital to life. Now, let us take H2 (Hydrogen) away from O (Oxygen) and you are left with 2 separate compounds. Hydrogen on its own can be very dangerous and highly explosive. Oxygen under certain circumstances can also be very dangerous and explosive.
Before separation of Hydrogen and Oxygen we had a substance that was very nourishing. After separation, we have two volatile compounds that are no longer nourishing to your cells as before.
As you can see from this simple example, you can not go in and start separating substances because you change not only molecular structure but also health benefits of a particular compound.
Whole Food Supplements
Creating a whole food supplement is a very complex process. There are many factors to take into consideration when manufacturing a nutrition product. There are not many companies in world that can create a whole food supplement that retains all natural components required for your cells. My “motto” is if you are going to spend money on nutritional supplements then buy ones that are in whole food form and benefit your health. Why would you want to waste your money on inferior products, synthetic compounds, toxic fillers and isolated nutrients? Just buy best and you will feel results!
So, are there any nutritional supplements that are good for you and provide benefits that are claimed? Well, through my personal experience and extensive research, there are not many products out there that can deliver nutrients in whole food form that is required by your cells.
There are some great products available at health food stores, however, you really need to know what you are looking for as far as ingredients and processing methods. It would be in your best interest to learn how to read labels and ingredients or find a qualified holistic health practitioner to help you.
