All Natural Health Supplements for Humans

All natural health supplements should come from sources natural to humans. Right?

If they're supposed to be natural solutions for dietary deficiencies in human beings, shouldn’t all natural health supplements come from human food?

After all, fish eat fish food. Dogs eat dog food. Cats eat cat food. Cows eat grass. And dung beetles eat dung. And that’s the way it’s always been. Wouldn't it be safest for humans to supplement their diet with human food supplements?

But the supplement industry is trying to change the natural order of things. Almost all natural health supplements today are made from NON-human food sources.

What's happening to our supplements?

Pycnogenol is a good example. It comes from pine bark. Even bugs don't eat pine bark. Why should you? Next there's dunaliella salina. This is a pond scum algae that no mammal eats. If they know better, shouldn't we avoid it too?

Then there's flaxseed oil. Flax is historically used to make cloth. It's also better known as linseed oil, used in paints and as a furniture polish. Flaxseed is not traditionally a human food and is considered inedible by the USDA.

The list goes on and on. There’s coral calcium, grape seed extract and weird nontraditional fruits like gac, acai, noni, gogi and mangosteen.

Now when was the last time you saw any of these strange ingredients at a salad bar? Or had any one of them for dinner?

When is natural really natural?

Carrots and whole grains are natural and healthy for humans to eat. That's been proven. So why are so many supplement manufacturers using weird ingredients in their products, with NO safe, long-term, non-toxic history of use?

The answer is simple. There's no other market for this junk. So, since nobody else wants it, it's cheap and plentiful. But scientists don't really know the long-term detrimental effects of these non-human foods. Do you want to be a guinea pig?

For example, let's take dunalliela salina, which is used as a carotenoid. It grows in stagnant polluted water and no living creature eats it. Its use in food supplements is NOT based on nutrition. It’s based on profit margins and hype marketing.

“Natural” and “whole food” are powerful marketing terms. And most marketers have no problem making up stories, stretching the truth and misusing these words to promote their "unnatural" products. Especially if it increases their profit margin.
