Overview: WHY WE NEED TO SUPPLEMENT
In the beginning there were healthy, whole foods and healthy lifestyles; people took responsibility for their own health. Now most of the world is dying from food-related illness. Half the world is dying from not enough food and the other half from too much nutrient-depleted, calorie-dense food. Times have changed and so has the way we need to look at food, nutrition and our health. Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer are now the biggest killers in developed countries. The current medical model that focuses on treating, rather than preventing, illness is simply not working. As individuals we need to take responsibility for improving our health.
For years, a so-called debate has raged over the relative importance of dietary supplements as a means of maintaining good health and safeguarding against disease. The debate has, unfortunately, not relied on good science but rather has been fuelled by a very small number of quasi-scientific studies
that have been fraught with controversy. Even the “unbiased” research findings have often been misrepresented by the medical industry and by popular media in attempts to create the next controversy. Such an excess of misinformation has led to a strongly divided public and professional opinion on the place of supplements in our diet.
