Red Alert---Red Alert!!!
Are you Aware that Your food Supply has Changed?
You are Eating Fruit with No Vitamins!
Vegetables with No Minerals!
We first began to know that there was a problem back in 1936--71
years ago!
A group of Doctors introduced Document No. 264 to the floor of the
United States Senate. It was a dire warning that the mineral
content of the soil was eroding. Vegetables were losing their power
and people ere at risk. Unfortunately Congress did nothing.
Just look at the US Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) nutritional
values for fruits and vegetables today compared to 1975.
Apples: Vitamin A is down 41%
Sweet Peppers: Vitamin C is down 31%
Watercress: Iron is down 88%
Broccoli: Calcium and Vitamin A are down 50%
Cauliflower: Vitamin C is down 45% Vitamin B1 down 48%
Vitamin B2 is down 47%
Collards Greens: Vitamin A is down 45% Potassium down 60 %
and Magnesium is down 85%
According to USDA’s own numbers, the vitamin and mineral content has
dramatically plummeted in just the past 30 years!
Notice minerals like iron and magnesium have dropped by more that 80
%. That’s from commercial farming technology and powerful
fertilizers that practically sterilize the soil---leaving it with
little to no mineral content.
If the soil doesn’t have minerals, there’s no way for vegetables to
absorb them.---and that’s bad news for your health!
Magnesium regulates over 300 body functions---every day! Magnesium
is so critical, low levels in your blood can lead to diabetes, heart
disease, heart attack and high blood pressure.
But the story doesn’t end there. A report from the University of
Texas in Austin, also tracked the decline of nutrients in produce.
They reported findings at a recent meeting of the American
Association for the Advancement of Science in St. Louis.
They found significant drops in a wide range of produce across the
board, including a 20 % decline in vitamin C and a 38 % plunge in
vitamin B2.
What’s even worse, fruit and vegetable growers create “hybrids” for
the sake of making their produce “look better.” They actually create
new versions of all your favorites so they have more water, more
sugar, more pith the indigestible support tissue like the white
fibrous netting around an orange section)—and less of everything else.
Growers call this the “dilution effect.” For them, more water and
more pith helps their produce ship well, look good and weight a lot
more. But it virtually wipes out their vitamin and mineral content.
The plunge in nutrients in your produce over the last 30 to 50 years
is bad enough. But it is rapidly getting much worse. Genetic
hybrids are pushing nutrient values even lower.
A popular broccoli hybrid called “Marathon” is an alarming example.
By the USDA’s own admission, levels of calcium and magnesium in the
Marathon hybrid are 5 % lower than other hybrids. The hybrids
themselves are 50 % lower in calcium and magnesium than “normal”
broccoli. And the “normal” broccoli has less than half the calcium
and magnesium than broccoli did in 1975!
In less than 50 years, the mineral, vitamin and antioxidant value
native to fruits and vegetables has been virtually “destroyed”---
robbing you of the natural vital nutrients you need every day.
Do you suppose any of these statistics might be a contributing factor
to the way you feel on a daily basis----sluggish, tired, no energy,
apathetic, poor sleep patterns. And you thought it was all part of
the aging process.
So what’s a body to do??? How can You turn things around and get
back to a natural and healthier life style,
Begin by doing your on home work. A trip to the library with the
goal of checking out
some books on nutrition would be a great place to start!
Haven’t got time for that? Well I have an easy solution for you!
