According to the
Centers for Disease Control (CDC), much of the illness, disability, and death associated with chronic disease such as
diabetes, cancer, heart disease, stroke, arthritis, and others are avoidable, or even reversible, through known prevention measures including vitamin supplementation. Furthermore, a recent study examining the potential economic benefits of vitamin supplementation concluded that there are substantiated cost reductions associated with the use of vitamin supplements, based on preventative nutrition. Sadly many people spend more on their morning coffee than on ensuring their long term health.
But what if you take a vitamin which meets 100% of the
RDA, is that good enough? Sadly no, The RDAs have certainly played an important role in public health. Most assuredly, they provide amounts that will prevent you from getting scurvy, pellagra, rickets or beriberi. However, in the general population, these vitamin-related diseases are of little concern. Products based solely on RDA amounts are fine for their intended purpose (i.e. providing minimal amounts of important vitamins and minerals), but the RDA of vitamins and minerals is not always enough to help prevent certain degenerative diseases or to provide protection from oxidative damage.
What does this mean for you? Basically, that there can be substantial cost reductions associated with vitamin supplements based on the principle of preventative nutrition. Many of the degenerative diseases mentioned above will have been developing in your body for decades before you are diagnosed with the disease.
