Hi Anna,

Thanks for your comment. These points you make are all very valid. However, we do recommend supplements for everyday use to combat our poor soil quality as per the recommended supplements in the article. We will also use supplements if they have been proven to be useful in treating certain conditions. The key point of the article is to state that foundational factors need to be addressed as well and will have a greater impact on someone’s health and quality of life.

You make a good point that supplementation is not often necessary if you adhere to a natural, whole foods diet. But, how many of us spend the $, time, and energy on making sure we’re getting enough of these foods to meet our nutrients quotas? Not many, I’d bet. Also, what about the quality of these foods, even organic foods. Leaching from soil is a very real issue – in other words, that organic lettuce you’re eating is not the same your Grandma grew.
