Why is taking supplements so important?

'If you live healthy, conscious and natural, you don't need supplements, do you?' It is a statement we often hear. Taking supplements is something that many people find objectionable. This is understandable, 'taking a pill' seems unnatural to many people. Why is it so important to take supplements anyway?

Our unnatural lifestyle

In order to stay healthy, we have to resort to supplements. It may not seem natural, but we have to realize that our lifestyle is also completely unnatural. The unnatural lifestyle of eating manufactured food and living in unnatural conditions with electronics, radiation and toxins can only be balanced by taking natural supplements. It has been scientifically proven that decades ago, a single piece of vegetables contained 98 types of minerals were and today only about 7 types. That means that per piece of vegetables, if we eat them at all, we are deficient in 91 types of minerals.

Constant contact with toxins

In addition, few people realize that we come into contact with more than 2,600 types of (chemical) 'foreign substances', or toxins, every day. Not only through chemical additives in our food and pesticides, but also through the air we breathe, cosmetics and personal care products, water we drink, etc. That is 2,600 times more than our ancestors ingested. Now, for every type of toxin that has to leave our body, we need a very healthy substance to which the toxic substance can be bound. That healthy substance is often a vitamin or mineral. Simply put, we get 90 times less good healthy substances and 2,600 more toxins. Our bodies' need for healthy substances is therefore higher than ever.

Consequences of a deficiency of healthy substances

Even with the healthiest organic food, we cannot eat that in 100 years. That is physically impossible. If we do not take in the healthy substances in another way, this can have adverse effects for us. Diseases of the heart and blood vessels, rheumatism, autoimmune diseases, old age diseases, etc. then arise because our body does not have enough healthy substances to neutralize all the toxins in our body. These toxins are stored in the tissues by our smart body, because it wants to store them in a relatively harmless place. This only works well for a limited time for the body before these substances cause damage to the tissues. Where exactly this manifests itself depends on your hereditary predisposition, which is why it manifests itself differently in everyone.

Use of natural and pure supplements

Fortunately, more and more people understand the importance of supplements, a positive development. Unfortunately, cheap supplements are then quickly reached for. The problem with that? These supplements themselves also contain chemical and unnatural additives. The whole point of taking supplements is thus nullified.

Good supplements consist entirely of natural substances and do not cause any side effects. If this were the case with a supplement, it would be taken off the market faster than the manufacturer could blink an eye. Chemically manufactured medicines are allowed to have serious side effects, while if someone gets a headache from a supplement, it is immediately taken off the market. By the way, you can rarely get side effects from natural supplements, at most a few detoxification symptoms. Something that is only a positive sign; the drug has the desired effect on your body.

By simply taking the right good substances, such as vitamins, minerals, herbs and other natural supplements, you bring back the healthy balance in your body. With this logic it is easy to understand that health is not a coincidence, but a choice that you make yourself. Through your lifestyle, the daily food that you take and the supplements that you use extra as an addition to your varied food. By thinking carefully about how important it is to take the right supplements, you can take responsibility for your own health.
