Book Description:
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.
