I think I figured out to help fix heart failure. I deserve an attagirl.

4. Mineral supplementation can "prevent" many common diseases in the US.

I think what the mother consumes during pregnancy has a bigger affect on her fetus than genetics, but it's more than prenatal vitamins, we are all lacking in the many trace minerals that used to be in the soil and hence in our normal food supply. And we used to eat mostly plants rather than mostly packaged foods.

My amazement isn't so much that people don't know about supplementation but that we may well know it but don''t practice it. We take our health for granted until something threatens it . What's in the calories! Bingo!

If we concern ourselves more with what we ARE going to eat not with what we 'can't' eat, we'd be so much better off. Consuming something just for fun because you like the taste of it is fine if you already ate what's good for you, I find that I don't crave cr@p foods much if I am eating healthy.
