"IF" Archive in supplements.

Friends,

This was printed, in it's entirity, in the 75 page Client Handbook we gave to each new patient at our Centre in KY:

"IF our nation's soil was virgin--which is is not;

IF our ancestors were perfect--they were not;

IF you could teach people to eat to satisfy the body's needs and not their perverted appetities--which we cannot;

IF we could all own our own cow or goat; raise our own meat and poultry--which we cannot;

IF our foods were not harvested green and immature--but they are;

If storage did not produce deficiencies of vitamins--but it does;

IF we lived in a 'stress-free' world--which we do not;

IF chemical fertilizers were not used in our soil--but they are;

If refinement, procesing, enrichment & synthetic substitution were not a reality--but they are;

IF the animals were not force-fed and hormone-fed to increase their weight and make an earlier market day--which they are;

IF the animals we eat were fed a perfect diet--which they are not;

IF insecticides did not penetrate every cell of our food--but they do;

IF most of our grains were not refined into dried cereals--which they are;

IF our white sugar possessed anything more nutritive than sand--which it does not;

IF our modern white flour was all used for wallpaper paste instead of bakery goods--which it is not:

IF our foods were not overcooked--but they are;

IF our deep-fry fats were not found in almost every restaurant--but they are;

IF man would live by the laws of nature--which he will not;

IF our environment (water, air, food, etc.) was not severely polluted--which it is;

THEN, WE WOULDN'T NEED TO TAKE VITAMIN AND MINERAL SUPPLEMENTS!"

Comments? At the time this was written, the AMA's official position was still that vitamin/mineral supplements were only making expensive urine. Of course now, 20 years later, the AMA's official position is that vitamin/mineral supplements are a good idea for everyone. Anyone ever heard of CODEX?
