Formula 2 - Multivitamin Complex
Poor eating habits, stressful lifestyles and environmental pollutants can rob the body of vital nutrients and wreak havoc on our immune system. Treatment of things like fruit and vegetables to preserve them makes it very difficult to know if the food we are eating actually contains any good nutrition by the time it hits our plates. Take a potato for example, it loses 20% of its nutrition within 30 minutes of being taken from the ground. How many apples do you see in the supermarket with a nutritional information label attached to it telling you exactly what will be in it? Also, the way that we prepare our food drastically alters the nutrition that we will receive from it microwave broccoli and you will lose a massive 80% of its nutrition, even steaming it (the healthiest way to cook vegetables) means that you will lose 20% of the nutrition. Using a high quality multi-vitamin complex is highly recommended to ensure that you replenish the bodys nutritional resources and create a foundation to support long-term good health.
