Key Points
- Modern food production has increased accessibility and convenience but has led to diets dominated by ultra-processed foods, contributing to nutrient deficiencies.
- Due to soil depletion and modern agricultural practices, even healthy diets often fail to provide essential vitamins and minerals, making supplementation a necessity.
- Mainstream medicine often overlooks nutrient deficiencies in favor of pharmaceuticals, but addressing these deficiencies through comprehensive testing and targeted supplementation can prevent chronic diseases and optimize health.
