I got into an argument with some likely-malnourished guy today about how vitamin supplements are borderline-necessary to keep yourself healthy these days. He told me the title quote.
He then sent me this study--don't worry, it's archived--and I naturally started looking for who FUNDED the study.
Well, blow me down, it was the Canadian government. Nope, can't say anything that endangers the gravy train of government grants, no sir!
Obviously, that was all I needed to dismiss it. Truck Fudeau. He took that as surrender. Truck him too.
But whatever, I thought I'd vent some steam a little, because remember: 97% of all scientists agree with who writes the checks.
Meanwhile the Zelenko Protocol, which is mostly vitamins, has kept me flu free for two years now and regular colds don't last as long as they used to when they do happen.
Our body takes what it needs and lets the rest pass through.
This is not true for all vitamins - I forget which ones as I don't do high-dose supplementation but it's definitely not true as a blanket statement.
Fat soluble do not Water soluble do FYI
I’m sorry, I’m not a biologist.
Yeah, there's several comments here to this effect so nothing personal, just in case people are taking comments here as the end-all/be-all....
