An editorial published in the Annals of Internal Medicine, a pro-pharma publication almost entirely funded by pharmaceuticals, reports a new study claiming Vitamins don’t work.
To make certain multivitamin failed to produce positive results, these studies are universally structured so that they are based on cheap, low-grade, synthetic vitamins and inorganic minerals. The vitamin E studied in this science review, for example, was synthetic, isolated vitamin E which already has a long history of being toxic for human consumption. Beta carotene, too, was studied as a synthetic chemical in isolation, not as a food-sourced nutrient like you might find in carrots or squash. All these studies really prove is that synthetic chemical vitamins are toxic to human health
What the report doesn’t tell you is that if pharmaceuticals were subjected to the same basic questions covered in this study — do multivitamins enhance cognitive function? Do they prevent heart disease? — pharmaceuticals would prove to be disastrous. They not only don’t work; they also might kill you in the process of not working.
In today’s distorted system of quack medicine, junk science and pro-pharma propaganda, medications never have to be proven effective to be promoted and hyped. There is no scientific evidence whatsoever, for example, that chemotherapy prevents the progression of cancer (chemo actually causes more cancer), or that statin drugs enhance lifespan. There is no evidence whatsoever that ADHD drugs create healthy children or that antidepressants cure depression. Yet all these drugs are heavily hyped by medical journal (i.e. “drug journals”) and the drive-by media without regard for their disastrous lack of efficacy and safety.
The bigger question in all this, however, is just how harmful synthetic drugs are to human health. If synthetic vitamins produce negative health outcomes, then synthetic drugs produce truly disastrous results. Many drugs can simply kill you outright.
Synthetic drugs — including PPIs, blood pressure medications, diabetes drugs, statin drugs, Alzheimer’s drugs, osteoporosis drugs and so on — are specifically designed to interfere with human physiology. Their entire intent is to “block” some chemical process in the body and thereby attempt to control symptoms of disease (without actually addressing the root cause of disease).
High-quality supplements and superfoods, on the other hand, are designed to prevent the causes of disease before they ever become symptomatic. They treat the root causes, in other words, rather than the mere symptoms. No drug actually reverses any disease. They merely mask symptoms while allowing the underlying causes of disease to worsen
The real con in all this: Modern reductionist medical science wants to push drugs as the new multivitamins, but to do that, they first have to discredit multivitamins. Once multivitamins have been destroyed, they can convince the public (with yet more quack science) that everybody needs a statin pill every day. Everyone needs to drink toxic fluoride to have healthy teeth. Everyone needs to be injected with mercury, aluminum and MSG in order to be immune to the flu.
This attack on multivitamins sets the stage for the unveiling of a new wave of “daily drug vitamins” the industry will push on everyone: adults, children, senior citizens and even unborn babies.
This questionable scientific study also insists that food can’t prevent disease – All food is worthless for medical purposes. Only patented pharmaceuticals can treat, cure or prevent any disease, they ridiculously claim.
That’s their worldview: Nutrition is bad, organic food is bad and herbs are bad. What’s good? Vaccines, GMOs, medications and chemotherapy. To these science quacks, everyone in America should stop consuming good nutrition and start popping more medications and lining up for vaccine injections. That’s the pathway to good health, didn’t you know?
You should never take cheap, synthetic multivitamins or supplements and completely avoid cheap minerals like calcium carbonate or magnesium oxide. EAT REAL FOOD – Whole food – Organic, non-GMO food.
Grow your own sprouts or garden if possible and if not, buy foods from CSAs or local farmers’ markets. Eating real food should always be your foundation for nutritional health.
If you want to take supplements, invest in high-end, quality supplements based on food concentrates or food extracts. Nutrients derived from real food tend to be far healthier than synthetic nutrients.
