Synthetic Vitamins – Most Vitamins Are Synthetic – Dr. Berg
Are you taking the wrong type of vitamin? Most people are.
so I’m going to do a short video on vitamins uh there’s one distinction between synthetic vitamins and Whole Food concentrates that I really really want to make because so many people are taking the wrong ones annoyingly when you get a vitamin that’s prescribed by a doctor that you have to get from a pharmacy then you know for a fact it’s synthetic and that includes all those prenatals now what are synthetic vitamins there are man-made vitamins made from petroleum colar and they synthesize them to sort of make them the same as natural molecules but what what’s missing is that in nature nothing comes in these fraction oid individual parts of vitamins in nature you always have the whole complex of vitamins um and not in high amounts in very small amounts so even though you have high potency vitamins that are synthetic the reason why your urine is so yellow is because you’re just peeing it out because it’s almost toxic to your body the only benefit of itic vitamins is a shortterm use maybe doing a detox but that’s it you never want to take them long term now I’m not even saying focus on natural vitamins I’m saying focus on Whole Food concentrates and you have to look on the label and read the ingredients where does it come from if you cannot pronounce the chemical then we know it’s made from synthetics so let’s just take Vitamin C complex in nature vitamin C comes with with multiple parts we have have a scorc acid that’s the antioxidant portion and that’s so funny because antioxidants really are the inactive part of the vitamin C complex they’re not the active part they don’t really they’re like the eggshell to the eggs they’re like the banana pill to the banana um they’re there to protect the guts of that um vitamin but most people think that this is the active portion and they take it in high amounts and think they’re getting some benefits um let me just tell you the the only benefit you would get if you were had a cold or something with the acidic nature the acidifying nature of ascorbic acid because when you make the body more acid when you’re sick it tends to increase help the immune system fight The Sing Off better but you’d be better off taking apple cider vinegar not ascorbic acid because when you take high amounts of synthetic vitamins it tends to deplete the other Associated parts that normally come with that vitamin complex and that’s why too much scopic acid you end up with bleeding gums spider veins that’s the side effect um why because you’re going to be creating deficiencies of vitamin P vitamin P are all the bioflavonoids they’re routin they’re they’re the ones that help um the arteries the strengthen the the gums and the teeth the capillaries without vitamin P you’ll get varicose veins and spider veins vitamin J now you say well wait a second I never heard of vitamin J well what’s the first vitamin that was ever discovered take a while guess it’s not vitamin C it’s vitamin A then comes B then C then D then e then f and g and it goes right down through all the way up to I think um J and H and even have vitamin U so those are vitamins that are just they were discovered in that order so vitamin J is the anti- pneumonia vitamin it helps you breathe it helps um with oxygen carrying capacity especially when you go up a flight of stairs so if you go up stairs and you can’t breathe it could mean that you need more vitamin J or you have problems breathing copper in in vitamins you always have a mineral as part of the connecting part so all vitamins have as their base some mineral with vitamin C it’s copper copper is not just like a metallic a rock like you would have like a copper penny it’s it’s in an enzyme form so it’s really easy to digest and the enzyme the name of it is called tyrosinase which basically is um one of the key u minerals to help you build up collagen in your joints and your arteries and things like that and so then we have K that’s a um it it helps you clot so it helps prevent bleeding and there’s certain drugs that are blocking vitamin K like um um like the rat poison catin which people take to prevent strokes and things like that so you can’t they can’t really consume much of vitamin K vegetables but the point is that what you want to do is you want to look for vitamins that come in their whole complex um Parts not as a synthetic you want to avoid the synthetics and because the synthetic vitamin C is made from corn starch which by the way has no vitamin C and sulfuric acid those two things it’s kind of weird that you’re getting vitamin C without without a raw material that comes from vitamin C or has vitamin C in it but that’s how they make it it’s cornstarch and sulfuric acid what’s the bottom line only ever consume food or a whole food concentrates and you’ll stay out of trouble
