[@Hankyjane]

Veggies have so much pesticides. Even organic is often NOT so organic.

[@centralfloridagmrs]

In fact the chemical structure of a synthesized compound is exactly the same as the natural compound it is supposed to supplement. Also all vitamins, whether they are delivered via a supplement or fortified in food-synthetic or natural- are made in a lab. Natural vitamins, meanwhile are sourced from plants, fruits, animals, and minerals, and then refined and processed in a lab. To be worthy of the label “natural” a vitamin supplement need contain only 10% plant or fruit derived ingredients. The other 90% could very well be synthetic.

I worked for a Salk researcher 20 years ago who was analyzing by HPLC the antioxidants in people’s blood. First he instructed his group to take no vitamins for a month and we got a baseline. Then they took the specific brand of commercial multivitamin for a month and we retested them. The results were rather shocking. Less the 5% increase was average but was worse is a significant percentage of people actually LOST antioxidants, they were worse off. We tested food based vitamins and the results were much better and no one had a decrease in antioxidant potential. However I will say, liquid vitamins did better than pills. All our studies involved about 50 people so this wasn’t a huge sample size. Older people has less absorption than younger. We took a dietary survey of all participants and those with better diets had far more benefits from good quality vitamins than those who had poor diets. I learned that you can’t have vitamins as a stop gap for a crappy diet, more as an enhancement of a good one. This research changed my perspective and I tossed out all my grocery store vitamins. I only use concentrated superfoods and key targets like minerals and D3K2.

I’ve been following Mark Hyman for years & even took the liberty of splashing out a bit of hard earned cash, on a few of his books. I’ve studied human physiology/health/diet/nutrition for over 20 years & thought I had gained an excellent knowledge but Hyman opened my eyes to much of the stuff that we just done see in textbooks or hear from western medicine practitioners. My knowledge has 1-2 gaps & I know very little about the differences between synthetic & natural compound or their names & despite my searching, I’ve found very little information that shows us how to determine between the less expensive & potentially harmful synthetic compounds & the more beneficial natural ones. Many of these compounds come in multiple forms & I’d love to know which is good & what to avoid..a simple table with compounds down the LHS & GOOD/BAD, SYNTHETIC/NATURAL headers at the top is all I need but I can’t seem to find anything like this..any links would be hugely appreciated

​@@woodstockxx Not sure I can be much help other than to say read The Plant Paradox. It is a really nice compliment to FOOD- what the heck... by Dr. Hyman. Be wary of labels claiming health and even claims of organic this or that cannot be trusted- it's mostly just marketing speak. In general, as you know, get your nutrients from high quality foods. Also, check out Dr. Gundry's YES/NO list. In brief, he highly recommends little to no fruit (Fructose) sans some un-ripened bananas, mangos and papayas- in season. He says to eliminate all Whole Grains and to limit or remove Lectins to avoid leaky gut. Gut health is where it's at. His book takes a different approach than most. His focus is more on what to AVOID eating vs. just what superfoods to eat...though he covers both in great detail. He is an MD out of Yale so he is quite credible. He is not big on taking supplements. He has reversed and healed many diseases in his thousands of patients.

The first thing we should do before we purchase any vitamins is to find the source of their suppliers...if from China, a big NO NO😬😷

For those of us that can't eat much food, I don't know how else we should get our vitamins. Because not using supplements and not eating much got me very sick. So I have to continue what I've been doing but I'll definitely be switching to your brand. I've spent hundreds of dollars on supplements so that's annoying that they're not that great for me ☹️

How often can one take synthetic vitamins if not daily?

[@johnnylawrence7232]

how do i know if i am really getting natural vitamins ? What about vitamin D ? aside from the sun, a vitamin D table ty would have to be synthetic right ?

[@kodowdus]

I would say so. Moreover, the "natural" form of "vitamin D" (which is technically not a vitamin at all, since it is synthesized *cutaneously* under "natural" circumstances) is cholecalciferol (AKA "vitamin D3"). The "vitamin D3" added to milk and other products may be chemically identical to "natural" vitamin D, but the "vitamin D2" (AKA ergocalciferol) that is added to milk "replacements" such as almond milk and soy milk is a cholecalciferol analog derived from plant sources (synthetic cholecalciferol itself is commonly derived from substances found on the wool of sheep) that has been seen in studies of the effect of "vitamin D" on lung infections in children to have somewhat different properties from cholecalciferol.

[@gaylemeredith4156]

The brand Pharma Botanica uses whole botanicals containing vitamins antioxidants minerals and the plant DNA. I take Bones & Teeth and the plants in this are a natural source of Calcium Phosphorus Vitamin K and Vitamin C. I live in Australia and quite a few of the plants are from overseas so the products aren't always available. It would be great if Dr Berg's products were readily available in Australia.

Mass confusion. So fat soluble vitamins are very very bad as said in the video that includes vitamin D3 as well, but also many videos where "its impossible to get vitamin D from the food so if we going to take from supplements, to take them with the food". So what to listen, who to listen for right information? Random info all over the channel and youtube as well.

[@kodowdus]

The "natural" form of "vitamin D" (known scientifically as cholecalciferol or "vitamin D3") is technically not a vitamin at all, since it is a prehormone that is synthesized *cutaneously* under "natural" circumstances. Moreover, while the synthetic "vitamin D3" added to milk and other products may be chemically identical to "natural" vitamin D, the "vitamin D2" (AKA ergocalciferol) that is added to milk "replacements" such as almond milk and soy milk is a cholecalciferol analog derived from plant sources (synthetic cholecalciferol itself is commonly derived from substances found on the wool of sheep) that has been seen in studies of the effect of "vitamin D" on lung infections in children to have somewhat different properties from cholecalciferol.

The multivitamin you mention contains spinach, broccoli and beet. These contain high levels of oxalate and must be cooked to reduce this anti-nutrient. Is oxalate extracted before using these foods in your vitamin supplement? I've read that the amounts of oxalate in spinach and beet are so high that even cooking still leaves them with significant amounts. So I decided to permanently exclude them from my diet. The more I learn, the more I want to just eat my own combination of whole, nutritious foods (and dehydrate some to make my own convenient vitamin-rich powders).

[@MOAB-UT]

Good point. SOY is high too- not as much as spinach though. Broccoli is not very high in oxalates but has other great things going for it. Nothing is perfect. What do you like to eat that you consider your top 10 health foods?

[@rain1956]

@@MOAB-UT I have to confess that, right now, my list is still in progress. The foods I'm presently eating that are most likely to stay in my "top 10" list are bone broth, wild stinging nettles, dried seaweed, wild salmon, and milk kefir (made with grass fed milk - I wish it was raw, but that's illegal here). Liver and other wild edibles will be next. I ate some liver a few years ago. I get so grossed out with handling it when it's raw, and spending hours trying to cut out all the tough ducts (or whatever they are), which maybe isn't necessary. I'm going to buy a food processor so I can just dump it in there instead. I hide it in recipes to get past the taste. I recently discovered Dr Berg's videos - there are so many I still want to watch. They (as well as the comment sections) are really helpful and inspirational for me.

[@MOAB-UT]

@@rain1956 Great list. I eat nuts, mostly Almonds and Walnuts. I add some green (only) banana to my almonds, a pinch of sea salt and it's great almond milk- great in coffee too. I recently started adding liver to my dogs homemade food. He's happy and healthy! I need to add bone broth- any good brands that are also organic? No Dairy. No Whole Grains. Limited Lectins. Plenty of Wild Salmon, Garlic (raw), Onions and Broccoli. Recently started making Miso Soup- add all kinds of good stuff like mushrooms and capers, garlic- yum. Very easy to make- 5-10 minutes.

[@edlauren9434]

I just saw a video on KZbin about synthetic vitamins. First, the RDA value is/was calculated based on use of synthetic vitamins. Second, the RDA is/was calculated using an animal model (mice). Thus, we basically have NO IDEA how much vitamins is enough or good for a human organism. We don’t really know how much of natural gas. synthetic is necessary… For example, people on carnivore diet don’t develop scurvy… even knowing that they don’t get vit. C with their food… I know that I know nothing! :)
