We are what we eat. Today our food has more calories, more preservatives, more chemicals and less nutrients than ever. We eat a highly refined over processed diet that does not offer all of the vital substances, "vitamins", necessary to sustain quality life. Obesity, Hypertension, Diabetes and other chronic diseases are at epidemic levels. Just as a wall may be built with bricks our bodies are built with the foods we eat. Without proper nutrition disease will take over. Supplementing the American diet with good quality nutrients is a necessity for optimal health.
