We should stop supplementing for the sake of supplementing, and we should start supplementing for deficiency. Very often we are nutrient deficient. We're not as diseased or as pathological as we think we are. We are missing vital nutrients that is causing the body to behave abnormally and leading to the expression of disease. I always use the analogy that we pull crude oil out of the ground. But you cannot put crude oil into your gas tank. You see, crude oil has to be converted. It has to be refined into gasoline or for the car to use that fuel source. Human beings are no different. We put all kinds of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, proteins, carbohydrates, fats of all kinds into the body. And then we assume that the body can take those and turn them into the usable form. And if it can't, then what happens is it leads to a deficiency. It is this deficiency that very often leads to the expression of some of the most common ailments that we are suffering from in mankind.
