The Bible Prescription for Health and Longevity

Imagine, forty percent of the American public takes a multivitamin and there is no guidebook or study that evaluates these pills. Americans swallow vitamins pills by the millions, but do they do more harm than good as detractors claim?Vitamin pills are the best health insurance that one can buy. Being an advocate of dietary supplementation, too often I would receive phone calls from people that their health conditions weren't improving, in fact, were getting worse, after they began taking vitamins. I wondered why vitamin pills weren't always living up to their promise?Upon investigation, I found most multivitamins were poorly formulated. They were impotent, unbalanced and incomplete. Most brands either followed the ridiculous daily allowance (RDA) or attempted to lure consumers by providing more and more milligrams of vitamins and minerals. Some brands showcased certain nutrients but provided trivial doses.The fine print on multivitamin labels is often beyond consumer understanding. Vitamin pills buyers often pay for nutrients that are inferior, like inorganic selenium, synthetically made vitamin E, and poorly-absorbed forms of magnesium and vitamin B12.The list of requirements for a well-designed multivitamin began to develop. I came up with about 25 important markers to evaluate multivitamins. A rating form was developed so consumers could evaluate their own multivitamins. It's at the back of the book.If you are the type of consumer who wants to know you are doing the right thing when you take vitamin pills. If you want to check the references and studies before you buy a multi. If you want a multivitamin that delivers on its promise to promote health and longevity, then this book is worth the read.

The New Truth About Vitamins & Minerals

WHAT HAPPENED TO AMERICA?
We were slim, trim and fin in the 1950s and 60s, and bulging out of our clothes by the year 2000...
Americans didnt just spontaneously begin to overeat for no reason - food producers were to blame. Foods began to be engineered so Americans would eat more, and more, and more.
It doesn't take long to realize Americans are being bred for obesity, like domesticated animals in a feeding pen. For comparison, Western Europeans remain relatively lean.
And while diet books place the blame on sugar, calories and fat, the fortification of foods with a metallic mineral is more likely to account for the increasing waistlines of Americans...
This book explains how the diabetic epidemic was spawned by changes in American foods beginning in the early 1970s. Read what you can do to side step this plague of obesity by adding or removing dietary factors that increase or decrease weight. Down Sizing Your Body - How The Industrial Food Complex Breeds Fat Americans - And How to Replace The Missing Slimness Factor Removed From The American Diet - By Bill Sardi Bill Sardi is a health journalist and consumer advocate writing from San Dimas, California.
