However, in order for these nutrients to
provide the necessary benefits in our bodies, they need to come in the
most bioavailable, whole food (see Vitamins), and amino acid chelated
(see Minerals) form. Vitamins should be taken straight from foods
in their whole form, not in their partial form or made in a lab. For
example, vitamin C taken in its synthetic form, Ascorbic Acid, has
actually been shown to thicken arterial walls, contributing to heart
disease. 8
Additionally, minerals have been proven to be the most bioavailable and
most readily absorbed by the body in the amino acid chelated
form. This form leaves no waste or toxins in the body, such as
calcium citrate or carbonate, which can cause additional stress. Other
supplements may claim to lower cholesterol and reduce heart disease
because they contain these nutrients, but many are actually damaging to
your health if they do not come in the proper form.
The Greatest Vitamin in the World was created
to nutritionally support your body. In addition to taking our whole
food based vitamin, please feed your body less processed foods and more
raw fruits and vegetables. The difference could be amazing! The Greatest
Vitamin in the World is excited to educate people about the
critical importance of health and proper nutrition. Do not allow
yourself to be among the millions who will ignore the most important
asset they have, their health.
