Where to begin?

Core message: "We are dying of malnutrition" (lack of essential nutrients)

Essential Nutrients:

• Water
• Enzymes
• Fiber
• Vitamins/Minerals
• Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs)
• Probiotics (beneficial bacteria)
• Antioxidants

Definition of an Essential Nutrient:

• Essential to live, thrive and be healthy
• Body cannot produce it
• Essential to get it from food or a supplement
• If one doesn't get enough, he will develop a deficiency disorder.
• If a person gets none of an essential nutrient, he will die of a serious disease (i.e.. rickets, scurvy, dehydration).
