My Personal
Vitamin, Mineral, and Supplement Program
by Kent R. Rieske
News You Can Use
Vitamins, minerals, and supplements
are to be taken to provide an optimum level of nutrition for health preservation
and the cure and prevention of diseases. This program is intended to optimize nutrition
rather than simply meet the minimum daily requirements. In many cases the amounts
taken are many times the minimum daily value (DV) or recommended daily
allowance (RDA).
The major responsibility for our
diet recommendation rests on the shoulders of the United States Department of
Agriculture (USDA) and the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA).
The USDA has published the official diet in the form of an icon called the USDA
MyPlate Food Guide. The USFDA has published the official USFDA
Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for carbohydrate, protein, and fat.
However, therein lies a big flaw. Neither the Food Guide Pyramid nor the RDA is
based on scientific facts. If you follow the Food Guide Pyramid as your daily
nutritional guide, you will encounter many related degenerative diseases like
diabetes, heart disease, cancer, bowel disease, autoimmune diseases, and many
more. The USDA Food Guide Pyramid and FDA Recommended Daily Allowances are solely
responsible for the current high incidence of adult onset Type II diabetes which
has tripled in the last 30 years. Type II diabetes is becoming common among
teenagers, who were once thought to be excluded from this "age related"
disease. USDA
- Dietary Guidelines for Americans, 2010.
The
USFDA Nutritional Guidelines Are Not Scientific.
Many people think the Atkins’
low-carbohydrate diet is lacking essential nutrients because it doesn't match the
results of the Food Guide Pyramid. Their reference is the US Food & Drug
Administration (USFDA) Nutritional Guide for Daily Values (DV) as shown on all
nutrition labels. The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) Food Guide Pyramid
was developed by vegetarians with an agenda. Nathan Pritikin and Senator
George McGovern were the perpetrators. There is no science behind the Food
Guide Pyramid. It was a scam from the beginning -- a make-believe nutritional
plan to limit the consumption of animal products. The results has been rampant
heart disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, intestinal diseases, and a
medical handbook full of other ailments. The USFDA Nutritional Guide is based
on the Food Guide Pyramid. This is easy to prove. Simply go to a food count
book or http://www.fitday.com
and enter a 2000-calorie diet exactly according to the pyramid. The results
will show every nutritional requirement to be perfectly achieved. It’s all a
scam. There is no hard science behind the establishment of the USFDA daily
nutritional requirements.
Vitamin and mineral food count books
cannot be trusted to give the correct amounts of vitamins and minerals contained
in various foods. Meat is typically ignored as a recommended vitamin or mineral
source in favor of fruit and vegetables. In truth, red meat, fowl, fish, and seafood are packed with vitamins minerals, essential fatty acids, and
essential amino acids. Vitamin B12 is only found in meat. When explorers
discovered the North American Indians and Eskimos, they found them to be in excellent health
even though their diet consisting almost entirely of meat. Nutritionists of the day
and modern nutritionists cannot concede the fact that these people did not
suffer from scurvy because
of a deficiency of vitamin C as expected. The explorers found that fresh meat
and pemmican not only prevented scurvy but it cured scurvy in those already
suffering from the disease. The Indians and Eskimos lived in
excellent health on an all-meat diet. The Eskimos that lived in Northern
Canada on the Mackenzie River delta ate a diet almost entirely of salmon,
caribou, and seal. The North American Plains Indians lived primarily on pemmican, a mixture of lean buffalo meat, dried,
shredded, or pounded fine and mixed with melted fat. The fat was half internal
hard fat and half external soft back fat.
The content was 70% fat on a calorie basis, contrary to the erroneous statements
made in numerous books that the basis for the Indians' diet was lean meat. These writers came to
this hasty conclusion because buffalo flesh is more lean than beef. The Indians
added 50% fat on a volume basis to make the pemmican. The Hudson Bay Company and
North West Company (fur trappers
and traders) purchased pemmican from the Indians by the ton to supply the fur
trappers. The United States Government later moved the Indians to reservations
where the Government provided them with grain, flour, and sugar as food instead of
meat. The
high-carbohydrate diet supplied by the Government destroyed the health
of the Indians causing an epidemic of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer that
continues to this day.
Vitamin and supplement pills are distributed
weekly into 21 small paper cups.
The stacks of cups are for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The pills are shown on the saucer only to give an indication of the amount
taken.
Thyroid Tests and Pharmaceuticals
Those with proper training who wish to
monitor and treat their own blood thyroid can do so. A
person in the United States can obtain blood tests without a doctor's
prescription from the following website. HealthCheckUSA
affiliates have
nearly 10,000 centers strategically located in all 50 states. Many of these
laboratories are used by doctors to conduct health screenings for their
patients. Because HealthCheckUSA helps hundred of thousands of health-conscious
consumers throughout the USA, they can offer health screenings at some of the most
affordable prices in the nation. You simply
order your tests online and take the order to your nearest testing center.
Those who wish to order their own
synthetic thyroid can do so by ordering generic Synthroid (Levothyroxine) at any
of the following websites:
"Generic for Synthroid
(Levothyroxine) is used to treat hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone). This
medicine helps reduce the symptoms of low thyroid hormone such as sensitivity
to cold, weight gain, dry skin, and lack of energy. Levothyroxine is also used
to treat or prevent goiter (enlarged thyroid gland) caused by hormone
imbalances, surgery, cancer, or radiation treatment. Besides, this medication
is prescribed for thyroiditis, thyroid cancer, and thyroid nodules."
Bile Acid Factors. Those who
have had their gall bladders removed may have difficulties in the digestion of fats.
Bile acid factors (bile salts) can be taken as a supplement with each meal to
provide the bile acids necessary for the proper digestion of dietary fats. In
the small intestine, bile acids emulsify fats to aid their absorption. Bile acid
deficiency causes fat malabsorption and fatty stools (steatorrhea), indicated by
diarrhea and floating stools. Bile
Acid Factors.
Notes and Comments
Note 1 - KAL Magnesium Glycinate 400 is the
highly absorption form of magnesium chelated with amino acids that can be taken
at twice the dosage as other brands without causing intestinal distress. Do not
substitute other brands. It is especially helpful for reducing blood pressure and eliminating arrhythmias.
Note 2 - The low-carbohydrate diet
includes generous quantities of hard cheeses that are a major source of
calcium. Therefore, a calcium supplement is not recommended because it deplete
magnesium, a very important mineral that is deficient in most people.
Note 3 - The colloidal minerals
contain 20 mg of iron per serving. This amount per day is excessive for males
and postmenopausal women who should only take half this amount.
Note 4 - L-Taurine amino acid is very
important for proper heart function and cardiovascular health. Read Dr. Atkins'
Vita-Nutrient Solutions book for details.
This is the best book for
determining the correct vitamin and mineral dosage for therapeutic (disease
curing) effect, excessive dosage amounts and normal recommendations. Dr.
Atkins' Vita-Nutrient Solution discussing the vital function of vitamins
and nutritional supplements and then provides a list of diseases and
complaints that the supplements can help cure or alleviate.
Note 5 - DHEA can and does cause
hypertension (high blood pressure). DHEA prevents the formation
of autoimmune antibodies. People with autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid
arthritis, lupus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and dozens of other
diseases should consider taking DHEA. However, DHEA has been shown to increase the growth rate
of existing prostate cancers. Therefore, middle-age and older men should limit the daily dose to
one 5 mg tablet. Younger persons do not need to supplement with DHEA.
Note 6 - P5P, is the active form of Vitamin B6, is
necessary for many amino acid reactions to take place.
Note 7 - Enzymes can cause sluggish bowels
and should be avoided if constipation occurs.
Note 8 - People with acid reflux (GERD)
actually have a low level of stomach acid as proven in tests. Start with one
tablet per meal and increase slowly to as many as four per meal, if necessary. Betaine HCL
is needed for the proper digestion of protein and the absorption of vitamins and
minerals. Do not give Betaine HCL to children or young adults because they generally have
normal stomach acid.
Note 10 - The three most nutritionally
important omega-3 fatty acids are alpha-linolenic fatty acid (ALA), eicosapentaenoic
acid (EPA), and docosahexaenoic fatty acid (DHA). Alpha-linolenic
fatty acid is one of two fatty acids traditionally classified as
"essential." The other fatty acid traditionally viewed as essential is
an omega-6 fat called linoleic acid. These fatty acids have traditionally been
classified as “essential” because the body is unable to manufacture them on
its own and because they play a fundamental role in several physiological
functions. As a result, we must be sure our diet contains sufficient amounts of
both alpha-linolenic acid and linoleic acid. Cod liver oil is the best source.
Note 11 - Germanium Sesquioxide (Ge-132)
listed here is the non toxic form of germanium that has been shown to have
anti-cancer, anti-tumor properties.
Note 12 - Animal-rights
wackos have propagated the lies about vitamin A and D toxicity from cod liver
oil in hopes that people will avoid taking it because it is an animal product.
Other unknowledgeable people pass the false information on and on and on until
nearly everyone accepts it. One teaspoon of Carlson's Lemon Flavored Cod
Liver Oil has about 20% RDA of vitamin A and 100% RDA of vitamin D or 400 IU.
This website author has taken 2 tablespoons (6 teaspoons) per day for several
years with only healthy benefits. This gives just a little more than the RDA of
vitamin A and six times the level of vitamin D. However, you would have to
take 30 tablespoons per day for 6 months to reach the slightest level of
toxicity of vitamin D. Polar bear liver can have such a high level of
vitamin D that it killed early explorers in just one meal. So, don't eat any
polar bear liver....LOL. A "global warming"
brainwashing scare was presented on the Internet and TV on December 1, 2006, in which polar bears
looked forlorn as if trapped on the floating piece of ice. This brainwashing story is run several times a year on the Internet and TV.
Actually, the bears are simply looking suspiciously at the humans nearby who are
taking pictures. The story is nonsense and
brainwashing. The bears can swim for 100 miles in open sea just for the fun
of it, and they know
where they are going. The ice along
Northern Canada and Alaska has always melted at the shoreline in summer. That is
why explorers tried to search for the Northwest Passage, a route that was ice
free around Northern Canada. The passage is rarely fully open, but an icebreaker
has made the trip from Greenland to Alaska. The Franklin party comprised of
two ships tried to find the passage in 1825. They knew they would be trapped
in the ice all winter and prepared for it by bringing guns, food, and lime juice
for vitamin C. They all died anyway from scurvy, a disease caused by vitamin C
deficiency. The men on the trapped ships could see the nearby Eskimos waving as they went
about their daily routine hunting seals, raising babies, taking care of
old people, and feeding their dogs. The Eskimos had no guns and ate a 100% meat diet.
Professional nutritionists brainwash the public by claiming that meat has no vitamin C.
Actually, the Eskimos' 100% meat diet prevented scurvy and could cure scurvy in
those who suffer from it as proven by arctic explorer Vilhjalmur Stefansson.
Note 13 -
Copper is vital for healthy arteries. Copper deficiency is
widespread and leads to many serious diseases including cerebral
aneurysms (rupture causing a stroke), abdominal aorta aneurysms (rupture causing
instant death from internal bleeding), nerve damage, birth defects, cerebral palsy, and mental
deterioration. Do not take high doses of zinc because it depletes copper.
Note 14 - L-Tryptophan
and P5P. Emotions and mood swings, such as excitement, anxiety, and
depression can have very negative effects on the body, including high blood
pressure, high heart pulse rate, poor digestion, constipation or diarrhea. The
combination of these supplements is a major breakthrough in digestive
health. It works by calming the digestive system, hormones, and all
autoimmune diseases. The combination of NSI L-Tryptophan (an essential
amino acid) and vitamin P5P (pyridoxal-5-phosphate, a form of vitamin B6)
promotes healing of the digestive system. P5P is needed to convert L-tryptophan
to serotonin. The serotonin calms digestion and the immune system. Serotonin
promotes sound sleep and can be the cure for insomnia, an awesome side benefit.
Serotonin is a neurotransmitter involved in the regulation of mood. Take one
500mg L-tryptophan capsule and one 50mg P5P capsule with dinner. Do not
substitute 5-hydroxy-L-tryptophan (5-HTP) for the pure pharmaceutical
L-tryptophan recommended here. The body does not react to them in the same way. Do
not substitute vitamin B6 for the P5P. It is not the same. These two supplements
may not be available at your local vitamin store. Click the links above to buy
them via mail order on the Internet or telephone. Do not skip this important
new alternative treatment for all autoimmune diseases.
Note 15 - Pregnenolone.
Pregnenolone is the precursor to all of the adrenal hormones, and we lose many
benefits as it decreases as we get older. Supplementation is highly recommended
for middle age and the elderly. Do not take if your are pregnant or nursing a
baby. It improves memory and brain function. It improves sleep. The adrenal
hormones are essential for health and energy. Supplementation is essential for
those with "adrenal burnout.". Read more on the following web pages.
Note 15 - Vitamin C
- Limit vitamin C when taking blood thinners such as Plavix® and
Coumadin®.
Note 16 - U. S. Center for Disease Control (CDC) Is a Dangerous Organization
The CDC said that the radiation exploding and leaking from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant posed no health problems for citizens living in the United States (liar, liar, pants on fire; your nose is as long as a telephone wire).
At the time of the Japanese earthquake, tsunami, and Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant meltdown I warned against eating any North Pacific fish or seafood. Dead fish and dead seal pups are now being washed up on beaches in California.
I also advised that people everywhere take extra iodine in the form of kelp. One good source for iodine is Solgar North Atlantic Kelp 200mcg. Take two per day at breakfast and dinner. Do not take any kelp unless it is labeled as coming from the Atlantic Ocean, Icelandic, or Norwegian. Excess iodine fills the thyroid gland to prevent the uptake of cancer-causing radioactive
iodine 131. Taking kelp will prevent thyroid problems and cancer.
Also, people on a low-carbohydrate and salt-free diet can develop goiter from an iodine deficiency. I personally know of one person who did. Table salt should be avoided as much as possible by everyone because it contains iodine by law and the iodine could contain radioactive iodine 131.
"Vitamin D 1000 μg
(40,000 IU)/day produces toxicity within 1 to 4 mo in infants; as little as 50
to 75 μg (2000 to 3000 IU)/day, if taken for
years, can produce toxicity. In adults, taking 2500 μg
(100,000 IU)/day for several months can produce toxicity."
TEST: Any health advisor, professional
nutritionist, or medical doctor who discourages taking cod liver oil by warning
of vitamin A or D toxicity is a wacko. An adult would have to take 30
tablespoons per day for six months to reach any level of vitamin D toxicity. If
you believe the vitamin A or D toxicity stories, you have been brainwashed.
Most vitamins, minerals, and supplements are produced in bulk by major chemical companies worldwide. Smaller companies obtain these vitamins, minerals, and supplements in bulk for blending, mixing, packaging, and retail or wholesale sales. We see BASF advertise on TV, "We don't make products that you buy, we make them better."
"This is not news for BASF, which has been experiencing such pressures for some time – compounded by competition from Chinese vitamin suppliers."
Everything else is made in China. Why not vitamins?
"In 2005 BASF initiated a restructuring programme in an effort to improve margins for the division. The most significant measure so far has been the closure of the plant in Grenaa, Denmark, which has helped reduce fixed costs in vitamin C and means that BASF's primary source is now Asia."
"Dow offers technologies, services, and ingredient materials appropriate for branded ethical pharmaceuticals, generic drugs, over-the-counter pharmaceuticals, vitamins, and supplements."
We don't see these DOW vitamins and supplements on the shelves in health food stores.
Retailers that claim their vitamins, minerals, and supplements are unique and
special are generally marketing products using fraudulent scam tactics.
Colloidal minerals are another good example. These minerals come from humic shale mined in Utah. Humic shale is the result of vegetable and plant matter being compressed for thousands of years but not being mineralized into fossils or coal. Plants hold minerals in a colloidal state (very small clusters), not in the bulk metallic state. The shale is ground to fine powder and soaked in water to extract the colloidal minerals. It is then sold in bulk to numerous packaging and resale vitamin companies. NOW claims that they remove undesirable heavy metals from the colloidal minerals.
Examples of unhealthy minerals are "sea salt" and "coral calcium." These are "natural" minerals. As such, the manufacturer does not need to list all of the ingredients. These sea products can contain heavy metals such as lead, mercury, and arsenic. The companies may hesitate to sell products with large amounts of heavy metals, but these natural products are not pure. "Natural" can indicate the product is unhealthy. Buyers are duped and brainwashed into thinking "natural" is always better.
Do not take flax seed oil because it
is high in unhealthy omega-6 fatty acids.
Do not take "whole food
vitamins" because they are basically concentrated fruit juice, herbal
extracts, vegetable juice, grain extracts, yeast, and fake homeopathic elements
that are very high in carbohydrates and cellulose.
Do not take barley grass, wheat
grass, alfalfa grass, oat grass, herbal greens, or greens supplements because they are extracts from
grasses, grains, seeds, nuts, legumes, herbs, vegetables, and sea
vegetables that are high in carbohydrates and cellulose. Humans are not herbivores.
Vitamin
Storage Tubs
The vitamin, mineral, and
supplement bottles are handled and stored in two plastic tubs each measuring
22" x 16" x 5" high. The tub on the left contains the active bottles
that have been opened and used. The tub on the right contains the overflow
quantities when several bottles of a single item are purchased. Supplements
kept in the refrigerator are not shown.
Antioxidants
Antioxidants are nutrients that
possess the capacity to chemically react with and neutralize harmful molecules
such as free radicals. Free radicals are molecules or atoms that can chemically
bond to and damage DNA, proteins, and cells. Free radicals are generated by
infection, tobacco smoke, air pollutants, ultraviolet light, radiation,
environmental toxins, excessive exercise, and excessive food processing. In
today's world, they are everywhere. A balanced approach to antioxidant
supplementation is to take several different types of antioxidants. The major antioxidants are
vitamin C, vitamin E, selenium, and astaxanthin.
Links to Vitamin
Toxicity Resources
Vitamin A and D are not nearly the overdose risk as claimed.
Vitamin K3 synthetic can be toxic, but Vitamins K1 and K2 listed above are not.
Synthetic vitamin E has been proven to be unhealthy. Take natural mixed
tocopherols.
