NATURAL vs. SYNTHETIC

One of the most hazardous deceptions that has been perpetrated on the (gullible) public at large is that "the body doesn’t know the difference between synthetic vitamins or crystalline-pure fractions of vitamins". This belief was coined on .......... Madison Avenue where truth is spelled M-O-N-E-Y. At best, synthetic or pure vitamin fractions can function in the human body as only a drug or pharmaceutical agent, certainly not as a physiological supporting nutrient. Counterfeit supplements can seriously impair the most important part of body functions by contributing to biochemical imbalance.

Natural complexes differ from synthetic or crystalline vitamins in many ways and the following are a few of those differences:

• They are colloidal, protein in nature and usually exist as enzyme or coenzyme.
• The crystalline vitamin cannot be separated from its protein portion without destroying its biological activity.
• The natural complex carries trace mineral activators, without which the enzyme fails as a biochemical catalyst.
• Crystalline vitamins taken into the body must recombine (if possible) with their natural required components before they can function as a vitamin. Prior to reassemble most, if not all, of the crystalline component is lost through the kidney.

To better understand this process you might ask what is a vitamin?

It is a complex of nature that consists of enzymes, coenzymes, antioxidants and trace mineral activators that make it all work.

Enzymes being protein, they contain amino acids and trace minerals. Every mineral and every amino acid needed by living cells may be found in a natural aggregate of vitamin concentrates.

These enzyme activators, destroyed by heat, steam sterilization and pasteurization, include manganese, cobalt, molybdenum, zinc, selenium, vanadium and lithium which are effective ONLY in the proper organic natural state.

Synthetic vitamins are reverses, mirror images of natural vitamins. ......."its odd geometry would prevent it from being metabolized by the body". However keep in mind that synthetic vitamins are not vitamins at all but synthesized FRACTIONS of a vitamin complex, a duplicate of just a portion or the biologically active and physiologically precise nutritional complex. There is no possible way that a fraction of a vitamin should be called a vitamin. The analogy here is essentially the same as an automobile salesman handing you the wheel from a car and telling you the wheel is an automobile.

Report after report has been written since 1941 about the disastrous side effects of synthetic vitamins and minerals.

One such report was from Dr. Agnes Fay Morgan (Ph.D.) a food research scientist at the University of California, the report evidenced that animals on a synthetic vitamin enriched diets dropped dead long before the animals on an un-enriched diet became disabled.

Another report made in Scandinavia on two groups of Silver Foxes states that the first group of foxes was fed synthetic B with their rations, and the following characteristics were noted (1) they did not grow (2) the quality of their fur deteriorated and (3) they died prematurely. The second group of Silver Foxes was given natural sources of B complex with their rations, and the differences were (1) they grew normally (2) they presented excellent quality fur and (3) they exceeded their expected, usual lifespan.

Since World War II, the American people have had a daily ration of a genetic poison in most of the bread, flour products, cereals, and other food items that are forced, by law, to enrich with the only cost-feasible enricher, synthetic vitamins.

Ask yourself, if the body does not know the difference between artificial vitamins and natural vitamin complexes, why are artificial vitamins recovered in the urine?
