  1. +oyinbo peppe: "Vitamin levels in food these days are so low that it would take impossible amounts of food to eat every day to make up for the deficiency. " ==What is your source for that information?

  2. +RadiantSkin: "But the medical industry is not that saintly either." ==Probably true. It takes billions of dollars to develop a new drug. If the drug fails, the company loses and the stock value drops. I recommend removing Pharma companies from the stock market. They should be in the hands of the government and protected from market influences (businessman). "there have been some awful pharmaceutical blunders, like opioids and dozens of other meds." ==They aren't perfect, obviously. The human body is complicated and it is hard to get some human guinea pigs. If you have any good suggestions, let them know. "Vitamins and supplements are intended to prevent medical intervention" ==You don't need them if you get your vitamins from your food. "wooed by pharmaceuticals" ==Some people treat medicine as a business. That is the problem. It does not belong in the stock market. It should not be treated like a business. Just like NASA is protected from the stock market, the same should go for all scientific research.
