That's all good, but I don't subscribe so much to supplements, vitamins, etc. They seem like a racket too. I believe well-balanced diet, in the absence of metabolic problems, provides all nutrients needed. Excesses will simply be eliminated, or worse, cause health injury.

I don’t disagree with you but Ryan Cole said vitamin D3 levels are extremely important and a supplement is needed if you live in a northern part or the planet.

Unless you grow your own organic food, and buy meat from regenerative farmers, you're going to be deficient in something. Soils nowadays are not much more than dirt, they've had so much taken and nothing given back thanks to industrial monocropping agriculture.

"Excesses will simply be eliminated, or worse, cause health injury."

Yeah, I take supplements once in a while (I generally cook all my own food and even make my own condiments). That's why they are called "supplements". Taking that stuff every day isn't a good idea in most cases.
