Monday, March 16, 2009 Natural Biology reported back in 2005 the University of Texas study done over 30 years which stated minerals in today's produce was down an average of 30% plus. According to the new studies this has not improved and ironically it is even questionable if it is improving in organice produce. Today, more than ever, supplementing is critical. According to new research, produce in the U.S. not only tastes worse than it did in your grandparents' days, but also contains fewer nutrients. In fact, the average vegetable found in today's supermarket is anywhere from 5 percent to 40 percent lower in minerals such as magnesium, iron, calcium and zinc than those harvested just 50 years ago. > moreWednesday, March 11, 2009 Fishing for a Better Mood James S. Tonkin - Mood swings and psychological distress are all too familiar to many women going through peri-menopause, the time during which menstruation gradually ceases.

The study determined that many middle-aged and older Americans are not getting adequate nutrition. > moreThursday, March 5, 2009 Gretchen Peters, Foreign Correspondent DENVER // Forget the apple a day, or that glass of orange juice in the morning. A daily dose of sunshine may do more to keep the doctor away. And you might want to toss out your multi-vitamin tablets, too. A rash of new studies on vitamins and supplements is raising questions about long-held medical dogma for staying healthy – although scientists and doctors alike admit they are a long way from having a complete picture. A study published last week in Denver found that vitamin D, most commonly absorbed by the body through exposure to sunlight, appears to be a more powerful antidote to respiratory illnesses than vitamin C, long embraced as a critical foot soldier in the fight against the common cold. > moreMonday, March 2, 2009 EVEREST Earth & Sea Formula™ Supplement Facts150 Capsules Serving Size: 10 Capsules Servings: 15 servings per bottle Resveratrol 600mg*Co-Q10100mg*Organic Greens -soy lecithin, apple pectin, organic Hawaiian Spirulina, organic barley grass, brown rice bran, soy sprouts, acerola, grape seed extract, hydrilla, Nova Scotia dulse, Yaeyama chlorella, alfalfa, bee pollen, astragulus, FOS, probiotic culture, milk thistle, cranberry, papaya, pineapple, prune, red beet, tomato, red beet, ginko biloba, eleuthero root, bilberry extract, stevia leaf900mg* Green... > more |
