The Scam around Dietary Supplements
Written by John Hopkinson
App. 95% of all dietary supplements is chemically/synthetically generated and the "beneficial ingredients" are not absorbable because they are too big. Non-organic, synthetic minerals are 100-10.000 times bigger than organic, plant derived minerals. These non-organic minerals do cloak our system because the body cannot resorb them.
Chemically and synthetically generated dietary supplements provide incredible large amounts of daily value of minerals and vitamins but in a non-organic, non-ionic and non absorbable form. They cannot be absorbed by our body and are deposited in various parts of our body. These minerals are about 10.000 time larger that organic, ionic, water-soluble minerals which can be absorbed by your body. Now you understand why e.g. The British Medical journal stated that non-organic calcium supplements were associated with a 30 percent increased risk of having a heart attack.
Famous German magazine “Der Spiegel” reported in January about a scientific study with 230, 000subjects:”They also came to the conclusion that the increased intake of (chemically/synthetically generated) vitamin supplements significantly increased mortality, namely, vitami
A, beta carotene and vitami
E”
Dietary supplements are evaluated by their quantity of daily value: e.g. 200% of magnesium, 300% of vitami
C and so on. In nature these values are not existent because for instance a super healthy organic green salad contains only fractions of these amounts but its minerals/vitamins are completely re-sorbable. Why is that so? Because only plants have the magical power to transform non-organic stone minerals into organic therefore bio-available minerals.
Mother Nature is simply unbeatable. And trusting any company who sells chemical/synthetically generated minerals/vitamins with a big marketing budget could be pretty short-sighted because most of these products are on the market just since 1-15 years. Any customer who ingests these products is a "voluntary test person" who even pays lots of money for their test. And sometime unfortunately the test results are negative as the British Medical journal reported in case of the people who wanted to prevent Osteoporosis but end up with an increased risk of heart attack.
