Every single function and chemical process in the body needs specific essential nutrients that include minerals, vitamins, amino acids and essential fatty acids to carry out their intended purpose.
These necessary nutrients are consumed on a regular basis for optimum health and function because the body cannot make or synthesize essential nutrients, when any one of them is missing for any length of time, malfunction and disease can develop.
Even back in 1936, as described in the U.S. Senate document 264; it was known that soils were depleted, and that most people did not get the proper nutrients in their diet to stay well. In 2023 essential nutrition countermeasures are required to offset another 87 years of soil depletion, industrialization, and food manipulation.
Since the foods we eat today are so devoid of these nutritional elements, we must supplement with them every day.
