Antioxidants: Food for Thought

Antioxidant, it’s become a buzzword. But with or without the buzz, all antioxidants are definitely NOT created equal.

According to renowned researcher and Naturopath, Dr. Robert Thiel, although many people take isolated nutrients as antioxidant supplements, they may not be getting the benefits they hope for.

That’s because nearly 99% of all nutritional supplements on the market including those labeled antioxidants are synthetic vitamins or industrially processed rock ‘nutrients’ and they will:

1. Never be a truly complete nutrient source.
2. Never replace all the functions of food/herbal vitamins and minerals.
3. Always be unnatural substances to the body.
4. Always strain the body by requiring that it detoxify or somehow dispose of their unnatural structures/chemicals.
5. Never be utilized, absorbed, and retained the same as food/herbal nutrients.
6. Not be able to prevent advanced protein glycation end-product formation the same as food/herbal nutrients.
7. NEVER BE ABLE TO HAVE THE PROVEN ANTIOXIDANT EFFECTS THE SAME AS FOOD NUTRIENTS.
8. Always be industrial products.
9. Always be composed of petroleum-derivatives, hydrogenated sugars, and/or industrially-processed rocks.
10. Never build optimal health the same as food nutrients.

Natural whole food supplements from Food Research provide real antioxidant nutrients. The Herbal Antioxidant , the Vitamin-Mineral supplement and several other formulas contain superior antioxidant foods.
