Re: Re: 3 chlorella tablets

[Guest guest]

Jim: you must be related to my husband! He laughs when I take my supplements,

which include 3 chlorella tablets. (The guy at the health food store calls them

" pond scum " ). But--when I miss my 3 chlorella tablets, I can tell. That's not

the case with some of the other supplements. So laugh away-it's good for you.

Whole foods are great and they should be the goal, but they are still

just food.  While they are compact,  two or three pills are never going

to be equal to a serving of asparagus or broccoli.  Also consider that

when you take a pill, you bypass the normal chewing and digestive

process.  Certainly, a great deal is lost there also.  I laugh when I

see my wife taking three chlorella tablets and thinking that it is doing

much for her health.

On the other hand,  I subscribed to Dr. Bruce Cambell's newsletter for a

few years and saw how he cured many grave conditions using mainly whole

food supplements.  There is a rational for using them; however, anything

can be taken to the extreme.

I would say that any green veggie from my garden is most likely equal to

about any food that you could find in nature.  It grows from composted

food scraps and humus soil that is full of earthworms...  what more is

there.

Jim

>It's a WHOLE FOOD!! I'm sorry I can't convey that to get people to

understand that. It can't be compared to >isolated/synthetic pills.

Whole Food - Fake Vitamin Pills - different.

product, the fact remains that the nutritional profile on the product

website she provided shows that the recommended four capsule dosage

contains almost negligible amounts of basic nutrients. People with

critical thinking skills aren't going to overlook that.

> Sure, whole foods are great; the bulk of my diet is fresh whole

foods. But, it would be really foolish to think that eating a scant one

or two grams of any of those whole foods is going to magically confer

super health benefits. So what if Carol's algae contains 20 amino acids;

four capsules still only contain less than one gram of protein, which is

a tiny fraction of any human's daily needs. A balanced diet containing a

variety of natural whole foods will provide vastly more basic nutrients

than four capsules of algae. It could be that there are other, unusual,

health-promoting substances in algae beyond just basic nutrients, but

promoting it on the virtue of its basic nutrients, when the recommended

dosage contains very little of them, is ridiculous.
