Two-thirds of U.S. adults do not take a multivitamin-mineral.  Why not?  Many simply don’t think multivitamin minerals work well enough to make a difference.  But new research suggests that multivitamin-minerals are highly effective-and can have an impact on our ongoing health and well-being.

– What does the new research tell us about the effectiveness of multivitamin-minerals?
– Don’t I get enough nutrition from the food I eat?
 – Can getting optimal nutrition have an impact on my health care costs?

Omega-3 Fats Raise Prostrate Cancer

This is appeared soon after I shared the benefits of supplementing your diet with    Omega-3 supplements.  As in many such scares, there are flaws in the study.

At Mercola.com you will find:

Absurd Study Claims Omega-3 Fats Raise Prostate Cancer Risk                   http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2013/07/31/omega-3-fats.aspx

At Monte Kline’s Pacific Health Center site you will find:

It will be easy to find other sites showing the flaws in the study should you need to do more homework.  Do keep in mind – quality supplements are critical.  Steam distilled and purified Omega-3’s are not inexpensive, so that should help you pass up a bargain that is not going to do what you are hoping for it to do. Shop with a company you trust.
