Excellent point, I agree completely. You don't find supplements in

nature. I eat fish for the oil (as well as for vit-D etc.), of course

in nature we don't find them convieniently packed in cans.

I don't think that many supplements are worth taking. Some

supplements, such as calcium-oxide, are forms that are not the ideal

for the body. Also some supplements, such as iron and iodine can be

potentially fatal if taken too much, whereas these nutrients have not

been shown to cause problems when derived from foods.

Some people cause an imbalance in other areas because they

supplement one mineral too much. Take a calcium supplement, throw off

magnesium. Magnesium supplements are going to throw something else

out of balance. Take Sodium, throw potassium off balance...

I get my nutrients from some kind of food. Granted some of the

foods are foods that some people prefer not to eat so they go for a

pill and assume that they are getting the nutrient, when in reality

they may not be.

I'm with you on that one. I try to take as few supplements as possible, but in

todays depleted soil and toxic growing practices one must adjust. However, I do

think humans are part of the natural mix of the planet and what we do good or

bad is as natural as anything else. How could it not be. It's a question of

navigating uncharted " waters " so to speak. I think, especially with this group,

that we'll explore just about anything to get better.
