Vitamins and Minerals for Health and Well-being

 

In an ideal world vitamin  and mineral supplements would not be necessary, however, since the world is a long way short of ideal, it is necessary to add vitamin  and mineral supplements to the diet. Although food may appear fresh when you look at the pristine presentations in your downtown supermarket, the vegetables and fruit you are looking at have been disconnected from their life source for weeks, and in some cases much longer. Discover the Benefits of Eating Organically Produced Food As a result, the vitamin content may be zero, and the mineral content may be a cause for concern, for if the produce has been grown on overworked depleted soils heavily dosed with superphosphates, it may not offer you much in the way of vitamins and minerals, so vitamin  and mineral supplements would  definitely be needed to replace the missing minerals and vitamins.

Unfortunately a number of countries are already using genetically modified seeds, and others appear to be following mindlessly along. No studies have been done to test the long term effects of the consumption of crops grown from GM seeds.

Many soils  are contaminated with heavy metals and pesticide residues, studies have shown that commercially grown broccoli often has a high cadmium content. Because of broccoli's ability to pull cadmium from the soil, it has been used in a process called phytomediation whereby farmers grow crops of broccoli to clean up contaminated soil. The cadmium contamination comes with the use of phosphate fertilizer, some sources of phosphate rock are very heavily contaminated with cadmium, and that is added to the soil to grow our vegetables! It's hard to believe that there is an allowable level of cadium residue to be present in our vegetables, just like the RDA for vitamins! 

Vitamin supplements are a necessity for we can no longer depend on supermarket vegetables to supply our vitamins and minerals. The post harvest practice of irradiating fruit and vegetables guarantees that your vegetables and fruit can live on the supermarket shelves for extended periods, and still look fresh, however, as for vitamins and minerals , it's extremely doubtful that a vitamin or mineral of any kind would survive the  effects of  high doses of ionizing radiation in the form of gamma rays from Cobalt-60, X-rays or electron beams.

RaduraThis is the logo which is supposed to be displayed on the produce you buy, unfortunately not all irradiated produce has this label, so there is no way for the consumer to know without it.  The rapidly expanding global market places increasing demands on the local grower to compete with much cheaper produce  from overseas, so quality of produce is sacrificed for quantity, and vitamins and minerals become a distant dream.

 You may have often heard about how many servings of fresh fruit and vegetables per day you should be consuming, but if the vegetables have been grown from irradiated seeds, sprayed with pesticides during their growing stage ,then irradiated after harvesting, are they really good for us? Where are the vitamins and minerals for our health and wellness?    Read more:  Discover the Benefits of Eating Organically Produced Food
