Whole Food v Synthetic Supplements

Whole Food v Synthetic Supplements

We know eating whole foods is better for you than refined foods, therefore it should be easy to understand why the same notion applies to our supplements. There are two forms of supplements - isolated and whole food. Isolated (or synthetic) supplements give you isolated or fractionated pieces of the whole. It removes all the extra nutrients they naturally come with which play an important role in how these vitamins are used and recognised in your body. Taking isolated vitamins exposes our bodies to high doses of some vitamins, but not enough of others. This imbalance can cause health problems because our body is forced to use the extra nutrients stored to facilitate absorption. Whole food supplements are made from concentrated, complex whole foods containing all the necessary nutrients required for facilitation. Eden Healthfoods' whole food nutritional supplements use the highest quality raw ingredients available to ensure they actually work.
