Too many people these days have a vitamin fetish. Do you know where humans got vitamins for the past five million years, up until about a century ago? They got them in their food. We still get them in our food, and our food almost always contains enough vitamins for the needs of our body. When we take more vitamins, beyond the needs of our body, do you know what happens to them? You probably think the body make use of them. No, it does not. The body pisses them out into the toilet. That's right, you put them into your mouth, and your body puts them into the toilet, because it doesn't need them, and what it doesn't need, it doesn't use.
Nope most of todays food (unless organically cultivated / home grown) is over fertilized, heavily processed with chemical/ synthetic additives, preservatives, flavorings and colours, and wholly nutrient deficient. You don't know what you're talking about ....
Before agriculture they got them from eating animals that were grazing on much more nutritionally dense vegetation than is around today. Between agriculture and pre WWII it was still mostly local produce and meat and was more nutritionally dense than is available today. Then Factory agriculture and slaughter became the predominant supplier and food started to become less nutritionally dense as the world's population more than quadrupled in the last 75 years.
We are what our food eats and our food isn't eating natural food. It's eating Gmo corn and that shit ain't good.
No, food does not contain enough vitamins for your body and not even close to enough vitamin D.
Humans live longer now and they are much taller and stronger because of adequate nutrition, so shut up, grandpa.
What a dumbass. lol
I guess you can follow that belief and see where it leads. I agree with what you are saying if you are growing your own food and raising your own livestock AND you know how to make sure your crops have proper mineral balances. If the above is not the case you 100% need supplementation. The whole agricultural process has been coopted so as to produce mineral deficient trash food.
