PEEING OUT YOUR VITAMINS?...TRY NBA!

Q. I believe that taking vitamins are a total waste of time and money. Because of their vitamin over-use Americans have the most expensive urine in the world. If I’m just going to pee it out, then why bother taking them at all?

A. I couldn't agree more! And in all honesty, most of us don’t need supplemental vitamins and minerals to maintain basic body functions. We’re not talking about…gaining health…as that is simply saying that you are one stage above being sick. I’m talking about achieving OPTIMUM HEALTH through daily supplementation. If your goal in life is just to subsist but not necessarily thrive then…you’re right…who needs vitamins! But because of detrimental lifestyle choices and environmental / ecological realities, it has been scientifically proven that we do need nutrient supplementation to gain this level of “optimum health”.

The key word you used was “over-use”. If we as vitamin consumers could only figure out exactly what our bodies needed then there would be no “over-use” or as you put it peeing out expensive urine. The problem is this; how do we know just WHAT and HOW MUCH of any one nutrient we really need to achieve optimum health?

Many health food stores now offer Nutritional Blood Analysis (NBA) programs. This is where a laboratory analysis crew comes into the store and for a small fee, takes a drop of your blood, puts it under a microscope and tells you exactly what you may or may not need. Of course from the stores point of view, these NBA programs sell supplements. From your perspective, it gives you a real time look at what you may be doing wrong or right nutritionally. This can be valuable information.
