Phytonutrients in the News

Dr. Mark Goldstein, MD writes a compelling article for the Naples, FL News about the value of phytonutrients and the many health benefits derived from a phytonutrient rich diet. Be aware, it is not just the natural “fruits and nuts” of the world discussing the value of a plant rich diet. The “regular” medical establishment is sounding the horn as well.Heart disease and cancer are the top killers in the USA according to Dr. Goldstein. He writes with honesty and concern. The bottom line is, with all of our medical advancements, why have we not been able to make a dent in heart disease and cancer survival rates?

He postulates it is simply because of our diet. Drugs and prescription pills are simply not an effective way to make up for a poor diet that is low in fruits and vegetables. Our diet promotes cancer he says. It is a matter of what we eat and what we don’t eat. We eat tons of fast food, sugary products, cheap cereals, and processed red meats which do nothing but promote the disease process and accelerate it that much faster and further.

As a nation, we do not even touch the tip of the iceberg with regards to appropriate whole food consumption on an individual basis. Dr. Goldstein contends that whole fruits and vegetables carry all the vitamins, minerals and enzymes required by the body in nature’s perfect balance.

He also warns against synthetic vitamin supplements……. using synthetic folic acid as an example. Folic acid is not the same nutrient as the naturally occurring folate that occurs in fruits and vegetables. He contends that synthetic folate and other synthetic vitamins may actually accelerate cancer growth. If you want folate in your diet, simply eat your fruits and vegetables.
