If you are like most health-conscious Americans today, you have serious concerns about the quality of our food supply (Genetically Modified Organisms, preservatives, chemical additives, commercial processing), enough so, that you are taking a multiple vitamin and mineral supplement. Should't those supplemental nutrients be from FOOD?
Sadly, most supplement formulas sold today do not contain vitamins and minerals as found in foods. Even though the label often claims that the product is "natural", the ingredients are almost always USP synthetic vitamins and commercially mined and processed rocks. These rocks are altered using industrial chemicals, such as gluconic acid (which is used in cleaning compounds), to form isolated rock salts, and while rocks are a natural food for plants, they are not a natural food for humans.
Nature intended that plants would ingest rocks and in turn humans would eat the plants. Plants have the ability to change the chemical compounds found in rocks and to detoxify them. Plants ingest rocks, humans eat plants. This is called the "Food Chain".
Commercially processed rocks are used in the manufacturing of supplements because they are much cheaper to produce than the nutrients found in Food Research Food supplements.
