There are at least 4 serious arguments in favor of taking vitamins and mineral supplements.
- Soil depletion. Launched agriculture and climate change lead to a shortage of many minerals in the soil of fields and gardens. Accordingly, the fruits that fall on our table do not contain all the useful components.
- A long way to the table for health. During transportation, prolonged and / or improper storage of products, vitamins and minerals are destroyed. So in natural orange juice from the package may be more vitamin C than in freshly squeezed.
- Chemicals. About 5 thousand different chemical compounds are added to our food all the way from the seed to the plate.
- Poor diet. We rarely observe the health rule of "five fresh fruits / vegetables a day." Even in developed countries with affordable and varied food on the shelves, 68% of the adult population suffers from a lack of calcium, 75% - lack of magnesium, 68% of zinc and 58% of iron.
Bormashina, good-bye!
Previously, the fear of pain made the obligatory semi-annual visit to the dentist a difficult test for many. However, now this problem seems to have been solved. English physicians have proposed a method of treatment of caries, in which the affected tooth is exposed to ozone. Streptococcus, which promotes the decomposition of dental tissue, is destroyed in 10-40 seconds, and completely painless for the patient. The tooth is not damaged, but the enamel is restored. Now in England, according to this technology, there are already 6o clinics.
By drop of blood
Instead of arguing about the pros and cons of the health test on food intolerance, practical Britons made it convenient and affordable. The test on immunoglobulins, developed by the nutrition lab of York University (York Test) about 10 years ago, is occasionally passed down by ordinary citizens and show business stars, as well as by Queen Elizabeth herself. Using a convenient kit that is sold in pharmacies, you can take a drop of your own blood from the finger, which is necessary for analysis, and then send it to the laboratory. About 80% of patients note an improvement in well-being after a correction of the diet in accordance with the recommendations of York scientists. In this case, weight loss is not an end in itself, but only a pleasant "side effect", observed against the background of the release of the body from chronic diseases.
White bread is the cause of acne
Health experts hypothesized that the purified carbohydrates, which are present in the bread and cereals, trigger biochemical processes that promote the formation of acne. Dermatologists confirm that a diet low in carbohydrates reduces acne. An example is the inhabitants of Alaska and the islands of Papua New Guinea. Aborigines did not know what acne is, until they switched to the European diet.
