Humans are tough, long-lasting creatures. current lifetime in the developed countries is climbing above 80 years! As scientific and medical knowledge advances, we’ve come to realize that there are both short term factors and also intermediate to long-term components that have an effect on Our health and wellbeing.
For example, there is a generally accepted minimum daily Vitamin C intake necessary to prevent scurvy. Once we thought that this minimum amount was all that anyone needed. Subsequent scientific studies showed us that increased Vitamin C intake had significant health and well-being benefits.
If you don’t get any Vitamin C, you will contract scurvy in a few months. But the goal in nutrition is not just to avoid obvious short-term vitamin-deficiancy diseases. It is to promote optimum health, energy levels and well being. For that we need many times the scurvy-prevention level of Vitamin C intake.
There are still longer cycles of nutrient deprivation and lifestyles involving many different nutrients, phytochemicals, antioxidants, etc. These deprivations can lead to diabetes, circulatory problems, heart disease and maybe alzheimer’s disease and others.
On the dark side there are pollutants, toxins, carcinogens and other substances, both known and as-yet-unknown, that have cumulative life-shortening effects on everyone.
All this pushes us to avoid artificial drug solutions and move toward more natural cures.
Understanding this now allows to effectively treat fibroids symptoms and make highly effective psoriasis shampoo. This rapidly evolving understanding of things now helps us to live longer, better, happier lives.
Science marches on, bringing new understandings and suggesting brand new possibilities every day. As research workers continue to unravel the secrets of how our body chemistry really works, down to the molecular level, our perspective and our capabilities to further improve and extend human life are constantly improving.
