Food Vitamins and Minerals ARE Better! Most multi-vitamin formulas are primarily synthetic (e.g. petroleum-derived) vitamins plus crushed industrial rocks, yet even peer reviewed medical research has concluded that food vitamins are superior to synthetics [1]. Numerous scientific papers have concluded that Food vitamins and minerals are better than USP isolated ‘nutrients’ because they contain important enzymes, peptides and phytonutrients which are critical to the utilization of vitamins and minerals and are lacking in isolated USP nutrients [e.g. 1,2].

Vegetarian Food NutrientCompared to USP/Mineral Salt
Vitamin AMore complete, as scientists teach that vitamin A is not an isolate [3]
Vitamin B ComplexMore effective in maintaining good health and liver function [4,5]
Vitamin B-9More utilizable above 266mcg (Recommended Daily Intake is 400mcg) [6]
Vitamin COver 15.6 times antioxidant effect [7]
Vitamin DOver 10 times the antirachitic effect [8]
Vitamin EUp to 4.0 times the free radical scavenging strength [9]
Vitamin HUp to 100 times more biotin effect [10]
Vitamin KSafer for children [11]
Calcium7 times as effective in raising serum ionic calcium levels [12]
ChromiumUp to 25 times more bioavailable [13]
CopperContains substances that reduce potential toxicity [14,15]
IronNon-constipating, better absorbed [16]
MagnesiumBetter absorbed and retained [17]
ManganeseNot as likely to contribute to toxicity as mined forms [18,19]
PhosphorusLess likely to cause diarrhea or electrolyte disorders [20]
SeleniumNearly 2 times better retained [21]
VanadiumSafer and 50% more effective [22]
ZincBetter absorption, better form [23,24]

The Difference is More than Quantitative

Some have felt that if they take, for example, twice as much of a synthetic vitamin or industrial rock (called a mineral salt) than a Food vitamin or mineral, then it will be just as effective in the body. That is not true. An analogy might be appropriate here. Let’s say two people want to build a computer. One has 100% of all the parts (like in Food nutrients) and the other has 97% of all the parts, but the parts are a lot bigger (like in USP rocks), which computer will work correctly? The one with all the parts! Shouldn’t your body have all the nutritional parts it needs? USP vitamins and minerals are cheap (or not so cheap) industrial imitations of Food vitamins and minerals–they are not Food! Synthetic vitamins and rocks can have some positive nutritional effects (as well as unnatural residues), yet SYNTHETIC VITAMINS & OTHER ROCKS CANNOT REPLACE ALL THE FUNCTIONS OF FOOD VITAMINS & MINERALS! USP vitamins and minerals are not structurally the same, nor in most cases chemically the same, as Food nutrients. As the aim of supplementation is to provide nutrients which may be missing from the diet (for optimal health), it is logical that Food vitamins and minerals can accomplish this much better than synthetic vitamins or crushed industrial rocks.

The TRUTH About GLANDULARS In Nutritional Supplements

Some natural health products contain glandular ingredients and many doctors have used glandulars for years with great success.  Glandular organs, such as heart, aorta, and liver, have been a food source in the human diet for centuries. The consumption of glandulars is believed to provide nutritional support to the corresponding gland in the human body. Glandular organs contain food vitamins and minerals and were often used in the past to supply various nutrients.
