    There is nothing better than a healthy balanced diet for our body but the need of supplements can't be overlooked taking into consideration the prevailing lifestyle issue, food cultivation processing and storage methods, environmental influences which alter the bioavailability of nutrients. Even the digestion, absorption and assimilation can't be standardized. So the importance of supplements can't be ignored until we reach a stage where we have perfect earth and body conditions to offer optimum health to all and that seems to be far from reality. Until then, don't ignore supplements.

    The question at 8:00 was not answered, and the documentarian shocked me because he did not challenge an obvious dodge. Therefore, I am stopping watching this video and likely will not finish it. The background music is not the only thing to suggest that this film is more situation-comedy than serious scientific assessment.

    Nutrition has always been dependent on the soils foods are grown in.
    Not all soils are equal.
    For example, Australia is a very old continent with very mineral depleted soils.
    Where i live the natural soil is low in selenium and phosphorus just to start with. No amount of composting will fix all of this.
    The nutrients need to be added before planting in order for the vegetation to be properly nutritious.

    At the end of the day, supplements and vitamins make a lot of money for a lot of people. I went my whole life never taking any and did hard manual labor full time for work. Being active and getting sunlight, not spending your hours sitting and staring at a screen seem to be the best way to feel healthy.

    So many professional still does not really answer the question.
    what you need to do is, get a blood test, see what you are lacking and consult a doctor about it.
    if you are lacking of certain vitamin then take more from natural resources.
    if daily activity restrict you from getting, then take a pill that supplement it.
    there's certain vitamin that you need to be mindful of like A and E, especially if you are pregnant then you should see a doctor really.
    for Vitamin D you need to take Vitamin K as well.
    and most important exercise and avoid junk food.
    If you seldom exercise you can supplement it with drinking wine moderately.
    Mindful of your BMI and if you are older it is better to be SLIGHTLY overweight.

    Left the video the moment that man said he drinks a glass of orange juice every morning. Such outdated information. He might be getting diabetes with that. Fibre is meant to be consumed with fruit or else insulin spikes happen. Also food is low in nutrients nowadays as the soils aren't as rich as they used to be. So I will carry on taking the supplements that help me feel better.
