Most of the food sold that has been processed has significantly less nutritional value than fresh fruits and vegetables, but even they have less nutritional value than the fruits and vegetables of 50-60 years ago. GMO foods are bred for their appearance and not necessarily for the nutritional value. In addition, people’s diets tend to be filled with a lot of non-nutritive foods that do not support one’s health. For example, people generally do not get sufficient Vitamin D, C, E, magnesium, Vit K2, Omega 3′s, or B vitamins in the diet. Also, many medications that people take interfere with the absorption of many key vitamins and minerals contributing to the increase risk of osteoporosis, heart disease , gastrointestinal bacterial imbalances, Alzheimer’s, hormonal imbalances (such as thyroid problems), and adrenal dysfunction. The FDA recommended dosage of vitamins in most over-the counter supplements is the bare minimum for prevention of a few illnesses, but does not deal with ideal levels of these key vitamins, minerals, and nutrients.
