Back in 1980, I answered a newspaper advert to sell 'colour-coded cosmetics'.
I had no idea what that meant but it sounded a lot more interesting than
my day job. I discovered that, alongside the lipsticks, blushers and
eyeshadows for 'warm' and 'cool' skin tones, was a massive range of nutritional
producs, most of which I had never heard of.
However, I plunged in and soon found that my health improved significantly
by taking a simple mix of vitamins and minerals on a daily basis and,
over the next twenty years or so, I went on several courses to find out
more about how it all works. I don't claim to be an expert in any way,
but I do know that I feel much more alert and alive when I take my supplements,
and feel ruddy awful when I don't!
People tell me that you can get all your vitamin requirements from the
food you eat but I disagree with this. Cooking usually removes most of
the goodness, many of us eat the most hideous concoctions from the supermarket
that are laced with nasty preservatives, and please don't preach to me
about the vitamin content of various fruits or vegetables. I spent 5
months on a kibbutz in Israel and picked oranges when they were still
green. These were then shipped around the world (which can take anything
up to three weeks). They would then be injected or sprayed on the dockside
or in the warehouse with some ghastly substance to make them turn orange.
Full of vitamin C? I don't think so. Unless you've picked the darned
thing yourself, I wouldn't trust anything.
But the proof is in the pudding and I suggest that you try it for yourself
- only you will be able to tell the difference.
