"STOP Taking Multivitamins Until You Read This"
Did you know your multivitamin may be creating toxic
build up within your body? The deadly secret
multivitamin suppliers hope you never discover...
What if you discovered your multivitamin was punishing you instead of helping you?
Believe it or not, all multivitamins are not created equal. Some may, in fact, inflict enough punishment on you that they should probably be flushed down the toilet.
Radical?
Consider this… If your multivitamin is synthetic, how do you know it’s even doing you any good? Are you assuming that because you take a ‘multi’ you’re guaranteed better health than if you don’t – because it seems like the healthy thing to do?
Obviously if you take a multi, this is something you’ll want to check out.
Why You Should Avoid Synthetic Isolates Like the Plague…
In my opinion, if you shop for your supplements at discount stores you may be seriously shortchanging yourself because those products typically use cheap synthetic isolates.
Millions gorge themselves on synthetic vitamins, only to acquire and die from degenerative diseases.
You see, isolated vitamins are partial vitamins, combined with other chemicals. They’re a low-end alternative to whole, real complete food.
When you remove a part from the whole, you get ‘Synthetic,’ ‘Isolated,’ or ‘Fractionated’ pieces of the whole, but it’s simply not the same.
There are four problems with synthetic vitamins…
1. Nature intended for you to consume food in WHOLE form because all the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants
and enzymes are together in one package. They work synergistically to give your body the nutrition it
requires for optimal health.
2. Your body only absorbs a small percentage of an isolate form of vitamins and minerals – and it utilizes even
less. You get the best bioavailability in whole food form.
3. Synthetic vitamins often give you massive quantities of some nutrients (usually the most inexpensive ones)
and insufficient quantities of others, not balance.
4. You can experience side effects of synthetic isolates from the additives and the unnatural state of the
synthetic supplement.
You’ve heard me say it before… Fast food and a sedentary lifestyle can be a disaster for your health.
Don’t let your multivitamin add to the collateral damage.
In fact, you want to be sure it makes a real and significant contribution to your health, especially if you’ve already adopted healthy lifestyle practices.
After all, I’m quite sure you’re one of the nearly 100% of the human race who wants to feel on top of the world…. All the time.
Who in the World Doesn’t Want to
Feel Great All the Time?
One thing you can always do to optimize your health and feel great is to maximize your immune system’s capabilities.
Because face it – everybody wants to feel well all the time, don’t they?
There’s no better time to get started than right now then, is there? The beginning of 2010 – all those goals you set for a healthier new year…
Now is the time to start moving toward a healthier diet and lifestyle. Start today, by adding just one raw vegetable per day to your diet… a small, do-able step toward your better health.
Why Make These Changes Today?
Because today is the first day of the rest of your life! Why wait?
Ideally it is best to receive all your nutrition from high quality unprocessed foods. Unfortunately, if you’re like most people, you may find it impractical or impossible to eat right one hundred percent of the time.
Therefore, even when you take the steps of adding raw veggies to your diet and getting some exercise and vitamin D, you still might want to hedge your bets by supplementing with a quality multivitamin every day – just to be sure.
What Can a Multivitamin Do for You?
While I cannot endorse the practice of sloppy eating and a sedentary lifestyle while taking a supplement to cover for reckless lifestyle choices…
It is true that multivitamins do help promote your optimal health and strong immune system, providing support for defense against a growing number of health concerns*. At least some of them do. More on that in a moment…
Taking pro-active steps, including taking a multivitamin to help maintain and boost good health and wellness is still one of the best things you can do for yourself and your health*…
Especially if you’re already adhering to a smart lifestyle with a healthy diet, exercise, adequate sunshine and good sleep.
However, there are important issues for you to remember…
Higher Potency and Even More Nutrients for You
I received quite a bit of feedback that you wanted an even more comprehensive formula than my original Whole Food Multi. So I went back to the drawing board and worked with my team to come up with an extraordinarily powerful formula -- at a fantastic price.
Here's the stringent criteria I used to find you the best high-potency multi on the market:
• Must AVOID additives or synthetic nutrients -- I only considered natural and whole food-based
multivitamins.
• Must be produced by a highly reputable company with the highest quality control manufacturing practices
in place -- I focused on quality as a higher priority than quantity.
• Must go beyond RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) and RDI (Recommended Daily Intake)
guidelines -- In my opinion, RDA/RDI amounts define the lower limits of daily nutrient intake. I wanted the
best nutrient formula to promote your optimal nutrition
• Must include the added bonus of essential minerals -- Minerals add their unique layer of nutritional
support*. Many high-potency multivitamins with rich vitamin concentrations lack important minerals.
Before I jump into all the details of this exclusive multivitamin and its power-packed formula now available to you, you might be wondering...
Why Not Just Eat All-Natural Whole Foods?
Excellent question -- and one you deserve an answer to...
As you already know, I've been a proponent of eating whole foods for proper nutrition for years... and now -- eating the proper whole foods based on your Nutritional Type (NT).
So, in recommending a high-quality multivitamin, please remember that these nutritional supplements complementt the food you eat. They do not take the place of a healthful diet of unprocessed organic foods, which I believe is still the best physical factor for you to achieve optimal nutrition.
However, accessing and eating high quality foods regularly may be a personal challenge for you and your family. Your busy schedule may lead you to cook healthy whole food less than you know you should -- and eat "fast food" more.
Even if you do well with your diet choices, another factor involves the actual food supply itself.
Up to 50% of the Nutrient Value of Your Food May be
Lost from the Start
A number of carefully controlled studies have provided startling evidence that by the time the food reaches your table, serious nutrient content could already be lost.
Some estimates report the nutrient value lost at over 50%!
This is largely the result of conventional farming methods that rely heavily on chemical fertilizers and pesticides, which deplete the soil of nutrients... nutrients that must be absorbed by plants in order to be passed on to you.
And it does not necessarily end there.
In many cases, it's likely you unknowingly further deplete the nutrients in your food -- just by the way you prepare it. For most food, cooking it will seriously impair its nutritional value.
So, realizing that you cannot always obtain the whole unprocessed foods you need -- and knowing how easy it is for valuable nutrients to be destroyed -- you now know why I believe adding a good multivitamin to complement your diet is a sound move.
Why Settle For Inferior Quality?
There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of high-potency multivitamins on the market today... but there are only a few great ones out there. If you are convinced of the importance of using a multivitamin, than I would strongly encourage you to do your homework, and make sure a GREAT company produced it.
When I first started my investigation, I was absolutely shocked at the low quality demonstrated by so many companies. That's why I spent many long months of hard effort to research and identify what I believe is the absolute best supplement manufacturer in the U.S. today.
After much tedious and careful research, I was able to identify an outstanding supplement manufacturer -- one who allowed me to help formulate the best multivitamin possible for you.
The lab I chose has won outstanding awards on numerous occasions:
• One of the latest awards received by this lab was the 5-Star Gold Medal of Achievement for several of
its supplements. The independent research firm, NutriSearch Corporation, issued this top award to the lab in
its Comparative Guide to Nutritional Supplements
• Of the over 1500 products evaluated, only 4 laboratories received this top award..
