Nutrition experts contend that all we need is what's typically found in a routine diet. Industry representatives, backed by a fascinating history, argue that foods don't contain enough, and we need supplements. Fortunately, many excellent studies have now resolved the issue.

We buy "natural" vitamins and take them all the time. In our food.

2   puhim   2013 Jul 20, 5:26am  

Yeah, go drink some Coca Cola and eat some McDonald's, because that's FOOD!

3   puhim   2013 Jul 20, 5:27am  

Food does not contain the vitamins you need, so whatever you do, do not supplement with Vitamins, you may become healthier!

Food has become chemical cardboard!

A routine diet of Chemical Cardboard GMO'd and chemically treated.

That's FOOD! Listen to your masters, like"NEW RENTER", Dow and Monsanto because they OWN YOU!

Both CHEMICAL COMPANIES who CLAIM to make FOOD!

This is not accurate. Most people benefit from additional Vitamin intake tailored to their specific needs. Most common deficiencies are D3 and B12.

Vatican City should not be a recognized nation-state and should not have the power to create laws. The only reason it is a sovereign state is because the Vatican cooperated with the Nazis and Mussolini and recognizing their legitimacy and even making hordes of money off them.

Why should we continue to reward a corrupt institution for cooperating with the Nazis and the fascists in WWII Italy? The country should be taken over, preferably with WWII Panzer tanks.

Care to reference even ONE peer reviewed article showing that vitamins extend life, or stop any actual disease? particularly when compared to a healthy diet? Of course not, because they don't exist and you are way too much of an idiot to actually research anything!

off your meds again? Idiot. Do you ever stop talking shit? Or do you you have verbal Diarrhea?

wrong thread Dan

12   puhim   2013 Jul 20, 6:54am  

Did you know food companies strip vitamins out of food then to add them back?

The added vitamins often do jack shit.

I am all for healthy food, however after seeing the blood results of many persons who are vitamin deficient from a so called healthy diets I urge you all to consider them.

Thanks for the evidence backing up your beliefs! I can see now that you are indeed a cracker jack researcher, who double checks every resource! A credit to your alma mater, and science generally!

Robert you claim we should all get those vaccines, drink the fluoride, eat the GMO.

Autism is 1-55 for males and childhood cancer is through the roof.

Does climate change cause Cancer Robert?

.........and Vitamins those are for fools right.

Foolish follower, I hope the people on forum can see how blatantly stupid you are..

Roberto, I'm sure you know this, but you might want to take vitamin b12.

20   FNWGMOBDVZXDNW   2013 Jul 20, 8:24am  

puhim you don't make any sense. Sarcasm is difficult to do well on the net, and you are failing.

No,no, he should eat Doritos' it contains the same nutrients as cardboard.

Probably not from the fresh (mostly organic) produce meats eggs and dairy which is the food we buy, except for the quaker corn crunch and trader joe organic peanut butter which are the only "processed" foods we regularly purchase. Grow some of our food, too.

Why don't you just post up some evidence and then you can argue your point?

And did you really say you were at medical school? Hard to believe.

24   B.A.C.A.H.   2013 Jul 20, 9:18am  

If someone was an employee at a teaching hospital, janitor security guard orderly or whatever, or even a patient at one, s/he was at a Medical School.

find it yourself or not, just go eat GMO and spray your food with Glysophate, it's all good.

Vitamins are bad. umkay!

What you think is real, is only your self delusion!

27   puhim   2013 Jul 20, 9:37am  

So idiots who don't think Vitamins do shit, should we tell your pregnant wives not to take prenatal Vitamins?

Idiots!

Feel that, that's your pride fucking with you!

Vitamin Supplements 100% work.

What the fuck do you think they feed Astronauts? Super Vitamins...that's what

Give yourself a blood test and check for yourself.

You don't need strangers telling you what is right and wrong, find out for yourselves.

You're not kidding! That's why we buy'em, and take'm - in the food we eat. Worked for almost all of our ancestors (yours too!).

Just wondering about the prenatals- would they be effective for all pregnant women or only those who are wives?

Sure, that was before the Agro business was taken over by Chemical manufacturers

Today's food is stripped of it's original vitamins and it's then added back, which does nothing.

Simply why America has the FATTEST POOR People outside of Mexico in the entire WORLD!! The food they eat contains zero NUTRITION!

It's nothing more than a bunch of chemicals that might as well be cardboard.

Today's food does not look anything like food from yesteryear starting from about 1995.

Claiming that food has not changed is delusional!

Our food will be unrecognizable in 100 years thanks to Monsanto and Dow

Go get a blood test first.

Then either bend over for the Dr. or do your own research.

Wow, I never knew that about milk being lactose intolerant. Thank you for your breath taking insight. And exactly who said vitamins were bad? The point is that a good diet doesn't need to be supplemented by a mountain of vitamin pills.
