Nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids) are the foundation of a healthy body. A common mistake people make when trying to lose weight is counting calories but ignoring the nutrients IN those calories. Our soils have become depleted over the last 40 years and a plant only gets its nutrients from the soil thus poor soils mean poor nutrient value in our food supply.

Recommended Daily Allowances are the amount of essential nutrients our bodies need each day. It is becoming difficult to meet these RDA requirements. For example, did you know it takes 10 bananas to reach your potassium RDA levels for one day? Potassium is one of the most important minerals to help the cells maintain their electrical energy, regulate blood sugars, and controls heart rate. Cravings for breads, chocolate, and salt all stem from nutrient deficiencies. Supplying the correct nutrient for the deficiency will often eliminate cravings within 3 days.
