Vital Nutrition

Due to over-farming and food processing, today’s foods are lacking in essential nutrients. Without these vital nutrients, our bodies don’t get what they need -- our bodies become "short-circuited." So what is missing?

Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs):
The most important missing nutrients are the Essential Fatty Acids -- “parent” omega 6 and “parent” omega 3. These “parent” EFAs are vital because every cell in your body needs them to function properly. EFAs play a direct roll in many of your body’s biochemical processes -- including incorporation into each of your 100 trillion cell's membranes!

EFA "derivatives" are made from the parents in much less quantities than most people realize. That is why fish oil is so harmful. The proper balance of these “parent” EFA oils is extremely important to your body’s delicate balance. There is not much real understanding of this in the world of nutrition or medicine. The fact is an improper balance can lead to illness, rather than improve how you feel.

Please read: The Scientific Calculation of the Optimum Omega 6/3 Ratio. You can download this special report for FREE from our Special Reports page (link at the top and bottom of this page). This special report will answer any questions you have about the proper EFA balance. It is termed by Dr. Sim, M.D. as "Possibly the most important calculation of your life," and valued at $49.95, but you can download it for FREE.

Truly-Chelated Minerals
Another vital set of nutrients missing in many of today’s foods are Minerals. Due to high costs, farmers can't afford to use organic fertilizers as Nature intended. Along with over-farming of the same land time-and-time again, the soil, and therefore our food, is lacking in sufficient quantities of essential minerals. Be wary of so-called "fortified" foods that contain added minerals. The minerals may be "in there" but there are no guidelines requiring food manufacturers to use a bio available (usable) form.

The bottom line: Even though the mineral is added to the product, very little of it may actually get used by the body. The proper form that a mineral needs to be in is one that the body recognizes, and is termed "truly-chelated." This term means that a protein is bonded to the mineral – they become one – the way minerals are in protein foods like meat, chicken, and fish. The cell "welcomes" the protein, and along with it, the mineral. Scientifically, you need to know that the popular colloidal minerals are too big to enter the cell. Just because it is "suspended" in liquid (the definition of a colloid), doesn't mean it can be utilized at the cellular level.


Protein
Another vital nutrient that we’re told to keep to a minimum is first-class animal-based protein. We’re (mis)led into believing that a serving of tofu is better for us than a steak. This is COMPLETELY and scientifically WRONG! No matter what you have been told, soy is food for a farm animal, like a pig. There is so little (50% at best) bio-available protein in tofu that you’d have to eat four-times the normal amount of tofu to get what an average size steak will give you.

Natural fats
Natural dietary fats like the fat on meats, cheese, butter and cream are not thought of as nutritious by popular opinion, but rather they are labeled"bad" by most “professionals” in the medical and nutritional fields. Fortunately, the understanding of these natural fats is slowly changing for the better. It has taken too long and millions of Americans have been harmed following the "expert's" incorrect advice. For the past 50 years or so, all dietary fats were lumped in together and given the “bad for you” label. Now finally the term “good fats” is beginning to circulate on the news and with nutritionists and doctors who keep up with current trends. There is still a real misunderstanding of saturated fats, but at least it’s becoming common knowledge that trans-fats are the real deadly fats and should be avoided as much as possible. Bottom line, natural dietary fats are nutrients that your body needs. I've published the truth over 8 years ago, but the deception continues. You need to know this. 

Vitamins
What about vitamins you ask? Vitamins aren’t missing from our foods the way minerals and EFAs are. Another important fact is that vitamins are still available in foods AND protein and natural fats contain plenty of them. Meat has plenty of vitamin C, but you aren't told of this fact. Bottom line is that when eating properly by making protein the foundation of your diet, rather than vegetables and grains, you get all the vitamins you need. It is not necessary to take a vitamin supplement, especially when following a low-carb lifestyle. Remember also that there is no guarantee how bio-available (usable by your body) most vitamins are. A lot of vitamin pills simply pass right through you, giving you no benefit at all. If you are eating a sufficient amount of animal-based protein, you are getting plenty of vitamins and don't need to take vitamin supplements. Also, animal-based protein provides you with all the iron you need, so taking additional iron is not necessary when eating properly.
