Dangers of Isolated Supplements

Consider these recent studies on using isolated supplements:

1. Early infant multivitamin supplementation is associated with increased risk for food allergy and asthma. (PEDIATRICS, Vol. 114, No. 1, July, 2004, pp. 27-32)
2. Most women take hormone replacement therapy, or HRT, for the immediate symptomatic relief… We already knew the impact of HRT on breast cancer, colon cancer, blood clots and stroke. (Maj. John L. Frattarelli, M.D., Chief Reproductive Endocrinology Infertility Service, Tripler Army Medical Center, “HRT: Should Women Continue?”, Medical Minute,
   Oct, 2002)
3. There is now strong evidence that antioxidant supplements—vitamins A, C and E and beta carotene—are not effective in protecting against gastrointestinal cancer. On the contrary, there may be a small increase in mortality from these tumors among people taking antioxidants compared with a placebo. (Goran Bjelakovic, professor, internal medicine, University of Nis, Serbia and Montenegro; Eric Jacobs, Ph.D., senior epidemiologist, American Cancer Society, New York City; Oct. 2, 2004, The Lancet)
4. Patients in the Vitamin E group (daily doses of 400IU) had no significant difference in cancer incidence, cancer deaths, and major cardiovascular events but higher rates of heart failure and hospitalizations for heart failure. (Effects of Long-term Vitamin E Supplementation on Cardiovascular Events and Cancer, March 16, 2005, JAMA. 2005;293:1338-1347)
5. Taking Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid only got rid of the symptoms of scurvy. When supplementation stopped the disease returned.

We believe Nature is a better formulator than a scientist. BioSuperfood only contains Nature's formulated ingredients of algae and Spirulina and no extracts or synthetic nutrients.
