Why Supplements are Necessary: The Acid Rain and NPK Effect

Mitolife Radio

I often see health educators talk down on the need for supplements, going as far as to say they are a waste of money or toxic. While these can be true for lower quality brands that put profit above quality, it is not always true. Nutritional supplements save lives and they're necessary in today's world. In this solo show I break down exactly why supplements are required. People will often defend supplements by only going as far as saying the soils are depleted, but will not go into details, especially about salt based NPK fertilizer and the catastrophic effects of acid rain on the soil. Iyr produce is not what it used to be, even if its certified organic or purchased from your local farmers market. Enjoy this deep dive where I talk about biosolids and how "forever chemicals" have gotten into our produce and meat, the devastating effects of acid rain on fungal mycorrhizae in soil, how metals compete for beneficial minerals, and the supplements that I recommend to stay in balance.
