Well the fact is, most people aren’t eating right (esp in the US!). And diet is not the whole story (as I mentioned above – there’s air/water supply, pharmaceuticals that deplete things – birth control is a great example, mental and physical stress, alcohol, cigarettes, etc.). For example, I recently found out that my hormones are out of whack. I don’t want to take synthetic hormones as I believe they can cause more harm than good in my case (being so sensitive). I take a supplement called DIM which is derived from cruciferous vegetables. I’d have to eat pounds and pounds of broccoli and cauliflower every day to get the same amount of DIM from my diet. It’s not really possible or reasonable for me to do that.
