The Futility of Taking Supplements

A lot of people are taking supplements to help build their immune system, but they are still getting sick. How come??

The immune system is only as strong as the weakest link in your body. That means, for example, that you can be taking all the Echinacea or colloidal silver or mangosteen juice in the world or getting a flu shot for that matter, but you won’t have a strong immune system if your colon is filled with stagnant fecal matter which is slowly poisoning your body. Or if your diet is filled with foods that keep your digestive system working full time to digest, leaving little energy to combat any viruses/infections you come into contact with.

So many of us are after a quick fix to our problems, and taking supplements seems like a good, quick way to increase our health. However, rather than take expensive supplements that aren’t helping you, you are much better off eliminating the toxins in your system, and eating a better diet to boost your immune system to its maximum efficiency.

Due to the seasonal availability of fruits and vegetables, and my lifestyle, I do take supplements - spirulina or chlorella. This is just in case I have missed out on something, not as a replacement.
