4:13 This links to the anti-acne drug, Roaccutane, or Accutane, which is essentially is a very high does of vitamin A (not identical but both become the same chemical when processed by the digestive system). This has side effects such as serious birth defects (pregnancy is severely warned against for women taking the drug - to the point of advising that more than one contraceptive being used simultaneously), temporary liver damage (alcohol is strictly forbidden while you are on the drug), and depression including suicide.
@D R Wow, that has not happened to me, though I am pretty salt an pepper being 51y.o. I hadn't thought about joint pain, I certainly am prone to that. I had a six-month course of roaccutane 35 years ago.
When I was 19, I blindly trusted doctors and wholeheartedly agreed when a dermatologist suggested Accutane. My skin wasn't even that bad, and the Accutane didn't really even help that much. I can't remember how long I was on it, but no more than six months. I can't believe I willingly took something with so many potentially awful side-effects. In my early thirties, I learned more about holistic health and stopped wearing make-up on my skin, really cleaned-up my diet, and for a few months took a liver supplement that a naturopath had suggested. The results were astounding - my skin glowed. People I knew would actually come up to me and touch my face. It was crazy! I find it sad that such dangerous medications are pushed on the public, when perhaps all that might be needed is a better diet, healthier habits, and an occasional supplement.
@@deborahblackvideoediting8697 That is very nice of you. It is a very small deal compared to what some have suffered. I do worse to myself being overweight. When we keep on hearing about the mass shootings in USA, the war in Ukraine, the multi-national famine it is exacerbating and the chronic misery of the average person living in poverty world wide, I know I am very very lucky to have such small problems.
So the essential question is, what is a nutrient-deficient diet? There is no discussion here of the reduction in micronutrient density in fruit and vegetables, due to selective breeding for traits such as appearance, and shelf life in particular, which produces food less likely to rot - i.e. less likely to support a population of microbes. If a microbe doesn't want to eat your food, it probably isn't going to sustain you very well either. Another thing not discussed is the preparation of fruit and veg. Water soluble vitamins - the Bs and C - are dissolved into the water by cooking even for a short time. So if you throw the water away, you are also throwing away the vitamins. Vitamins A, D, E and K are fat soluble, and are more likely to remain after cooking. Finally, the preservatives (i.e. anti-microbial chemicals) that is put on our fresh produce must be devastating to our gut micro biome, therefore giving us poor nutrient absorption. All of these factors influence the nutrient-deficiency of the modern diet. I am a 50 year old white man, therefore ridiculously privileged, upper middle class. I have a rich diet with lots of fruit and veg (most of the time - I have my vices), some of which I grow myself, and all of good quality due to my nation's excellence at agriculture and horticulture. But if I stop taking my daily 500mg vitamin C supplement in particular, within a week chronic skin problems like eczema and athlete's foot flare up on my body, and eventually even yeast infection, and get worse until I start taking the supplement again. This is despite the fact I grow a lot of my fruit myself, (and as a horticultural professional they are well-fed trees with a wide range of nutrients) and usually eat it raw. I also will get a cold, which does not usually happen to me, despite being a teacher. Other than fruit I have a low-carb diet as well, and most of it based on complex carbs. So I have a good to very good diet. I feel that to avoid the need for micronutrient supplements my diet would have to be exceptional - which is the essence of my point - most people, even in wealthy nations and sectors of society DO have a nutrient-deficiency, which is not easy to fix by altering diet alone.
I have eczema, I will try to take more vitamin c. I never thought to supplement on it specifically because they say that you already reach 100% if you eat fruits and vegetables (which I do). Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you very much for this vital information. I took omega 3 while pregnant with my son and he came out looking relaxed, very healthy n peaceful baby boy in 2007. Unlike the babies who did not take omega 3 ! Then I gave a baby I had prematurely at 37 weeks Omega 3 after she was born and she grew healthy very quickly and put on weight. Now am 48 years and I resumed taking multivitamin supplements after I had gone on a dry fasting and my body lacked enough vitamins, my teeth n bones were making sounds.
Interesting! The implications for reducing crime snd violence in society is huge. The study of vitamins in prisons suggests that by providing children and adolescents with the proper food and vitamins , prison populations would decrease and save many from a life in prison while saving taxpayer dollars across the board. Wow! Of course the US will never use this information for society’s benefit, it would take money out of a lot of already heavily lined pockets.
People pay ridiculous prices for their vitamins just because they are advertised by whatever celebrity/so called professional. Basic multi-vitamin/mineral pill that has 100% of daily recommended amounts here in northern europe costs like few euro cents per day if you just buy a non branded version.
All vitamin supplements are available online from reputable suppliers and are extremely reasonably priced. That's why big pharma isn't interested in selling them as the porofit is negligible compared to the vast profits from pharmaceuticals, all with lists of dangerous side effects.
The video has too many typos and errors as to render it unreliable information. It contradicts publications I've read in authoritative databases like the NIH, pubmed and ncbi.
Yeah the typos are quite embarrassing for the BBC but the data is very ''one sided'' - as in, _some_ data do suggest what's said in the video, but without links to the sources... It isn't a great way to share information. Nutrition Science is very particular as there are TONS of factors to take into account and the studies related to nutrition are often filled with bias
Moderation is the key. The amount of dosage,, and # pills per day. Last but least for how long? Instead taking daily, try every other day might help as well. Buy vitamins from a certified company.
For your 2 dangers example would have been better to define what "high amount" meant, if they were given 800%of the daily recommendation most supplements are well below
To my understanding you can supplement, but the form and quality of the supplement you take is very important and good quality that your body can absorb it, whether you're taking vitamins and minerals selectively or not. Some vitamin supplements are a waste of money, especially some of the ones sold in drug stores.
I experienced noticeable deterioration in short-term memory after recovering from covid, and taking omega-3 supplements appears to improve the situation
This program starts by saying that supplements don’t work and then goes on to highlight “the exceptions” as if these situations could be isolated in some way. Furthermore they then pick out the one (well-known and often quoted) study that showed an exacerbation first cancer. Ignoring the many thousands of studies that have shown tremendous benefits of supplementation where specific supplements were targeted for specific issues.
Nonsense. D3 needs to be taken daily, and once the level in serum has reached an efficient level of approx 150nmols/L 5,000 IUs daily is enough to keep the level where it needs to be. D deficiency is why so many get flu every year in 'the flu season', I haven't had flu or a 'common' cold for twenty years. I didn't suffer anything from Covid or the vaccines.
@@jimbojimbo6873 not sure what the base is but I can attest to the fact that after I tested deficient for vitamins b12 and d, my doctor prescribed me supplements to be taken twice a week. 🤷🏽♀
2:25 an example of over-simplification to the point of nonsense. ALL parts of all living things are made of nutrients. "Nutrients" is just a technical term for food. Protein, carbohydrates and fat (and I argue - plant fibre) are macronutrients, vitamins and minerals are micronutrients.
Astonished that this report made no mention of the known link between Vitamin D deficiency and outcomes for those who get Covid.. and the distinct possibility of. link between high levels of vitamin D levels and protection against infection... how can this be omitted in a report about the pros and cons of supplements in 2022?
Take them for three months..then stop for a month. If you don’t notice a difference in metabolism, mood, and skin, you’re on the perfect diet- should also write a book about it. But you probably will, as I did. Just know your deficiencies. One thing to note, not all brands and ingredients are equal.
A great diet is the best thing you can do for yourself, however many people are sick including many with good diets .. our soils are depleted of nutrients plus all the pesticides.. hence why we need supplements
Please provide the scientific study on cancer relative to supplement safety. I read many studys and have not found anything you refererenced. Science rules; not your words here.
the 1 needed to pay intentions when buying/chosing OTC supplements is the back label mentioned --> ingredients. some added maltodextrine 🤦, titanium dioxide 🤦, hydrogenated oils 🤦, artificial colors 🤦 (need to check some number of it), talc/magnesium silicate 😱, carrageenan 😱🤯 & etc..
Some supplements can not be replaced by meals. Like Nad+ supplement. I feel incredible heath benefit from it and I can not eat a ton of broccoli for it.
Ah I forgot to add a very important bit - taking vitamins that you don't need or overdosing on VMS (Vitamins, Minerals, Supplements) that you do need can be every bit as bad as having a deficiency. Adults and children tend to overdose on things that taste good (like chewy vitamins) and both men and women overdose on supplements for weight gain, hair retention, complexion, etc. Overdosing turns vitamins into toxins. I was involved in the sale of VMS and other health products. Again the video is superb, good work BBC with my license fee!
"reduce the risk of x" doesn't actually mean anything with vitamins, though. These synthetic vitamins are either being absorbed and utilized in the body or they're not.
What synthetic vitamins? They are natural, not synthetic, usually obtained from plants or animal byproducts. Vitamin D for instance is made from lanolin retrieved from washing lambs' wool. Mushrooms are a good food source, they make D in the skin from exposure to sunlight as do humans, but other mammals, with hair blocking the UVB get it from plants oir meat dependiong on their diet. Dogs for instance need fresh uncooked meat, which is why those fed on machine processed kibble usually die young from cancers.
@@petersimmons3654 99% of vitamins and minerals in the store are synthetic and just cause toxicity to the body , food based vitamins or just eat real food
@@petersimmons3654 vitamin C is made in a synthetic lab and many other dont think these are natural unless you get a high quality one but no one has those
Good overall advice, however it would be even better to talk about the wide spread deficiencies and presence of toxic elements. Vitamin D3 + K2 , Zinc, Iodine can be found in food but usually not enough in common western diets. Vitamins are also needed depending on the way of life and habits, if you are black or work at night or obese (or all 3), vitamin D is missing, etc. As some toxins are inevitable, it is also good to help organs do their cleaning job. There are not only the fructose without fiber and ethanol that are toxic, there are also things like glyphosate and PFAS, PFOS, etc. Some Fish like salmon can help fight heavy metals (even when those contain some), also increase gut biodiversity by eating various food, cheese crust, etc. A lot of modern behaviours and things that are sold in supermarket lead to type II diabete, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, etc. The most important is to check blood levels, and do individualised suggestions.
Exactly! Blood test should been taken and people got into OPTIMAL levels (like in pregnancy). I recently got blood results back where I was only low on Iron, B12 and Folic acids (not anemic!). I have been suffering from severe fatigue. I suggested to my doctor that perhaps I could try to correct those levels under his care. 3 months later, my fatigue is much better and some of my long-term symptoms have disappeared!!! The problem is that *I needed to suggest it to my doctor* instead of him noticing it. It's because their training. Or more like the lack of it.
Variety of foods generally suffice. If they were picky or only eat limited selection they're at greater risk of vitamin deficiency. Vitamins are used to aid vitamin deficiency rather than improving ___??? I don't even have a clue why people take them for.
Most people in the UK don't get enough Vitamin D. Very few normal foods contain Vitamin D. We mostly rely on our bodies produce it internally. But for that to happen, we need sunlight, which we don't get enough of either. Anyway, it seems not all vitamins are from food!
@@GT-tj1qg I'm sure it must be true for other countries that are closer to poles. Vitamin D is definitely understandable during close to winter seasons but, others not quite even in general sense.
Vitamin supplements ofcourse would reduce violence. When your body has what it needs it increases your mental wellbeing too. It really does effect how the brain functions, For anyone who doesn't believe me you can just try vitamins for yourself or drastically changing your diet, Even thought patterns change.
I agree! Whenever I start to feel myself slipping into a depression, I take some omega 3, Vitamin D, and Vitamin C. In a short period of time, they really improve my mood!
@@ravecsucks6192 - Well, it's pretty good. I started (clean) keto in January, and so I eat no sugar or processed foods. I eat good quality proteins and fats, and about 3-4 cups of veggies a day. (I'm slowly increasing that number.) I've just always felt better with a vitamin C supplement, even though I usually get plenty in my diet.
I remember reading a meta study that found that roughly 25% percent of studies found vitamins to have marginal health benefit, 25% had no health benefits, and 50% had an increase risk of cancer. That really killed my daily vitamin intake... killed it like cancer.

Vitamins and supplements are not the same though. Although all vitamins, are technically supplements, not all supplements are vitamins. For example; curcumin is a supplement (in that it's often sold isolated) as a supplement. At this point there's no debate about its efficacy, as its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, as well as selective hypotensive effects have been studied in vivo and in vitro, and while a minor percent of studies found it to be of a low or moderate efficacy, non was could objectively claim it was innert. Vitamins, save perhaps for Vit D. (which really is a hormone but I digress) in supraphysiologic concentrations are always either ineffective or even hazardous, like in the example with the Retinol. The beta-carotene, however, while somewhat less bioavailable is perfectly safe, and save for the carotenemia, no adverse effects were recorded, even in when extremely large amounts were taken for prolonged periods. So we can't generalize by lumping vitamins and supplements together, considering not even all vitamin forms act the same.
I want to see a study of profits raised by all kind of advisers. Because all these studies leads to consulting with adviser. Confused? Consult with your doctor.
A good quality omega three is fantastic. Skin, hair, eyes really works when hou are of a mature age. Vitamin d and A from cod liver oil keeps flu bugs away. And B1, thiamine for me is a must…relaxes muscles, clears up eyesight, Not all vitamins are alike. Quality varies greatly.
I must say this video exceeded my expectations. The advice and nuances are 100% on the money. Preventative care is the next big thing as opposed to crisis management. We are able to accurately model not just what people need today (i.e. deficiencies) but also what populations and individuals will need in future to prevent chronic illness. Lucrative or benevolent you can decide but big money has gone into it
I had vitamin deficiencies all my life despite being very health conscious with my diet, but I have been getting fully healthy blood test restuls only after I became vegan and again mostly with healthy diet. My health approach to food I consume did not change, only meat and dairy and fish removed. The result - my GP was also amazed how vegan diet took away my chronic vitamin deficiencies. So, please stop sharing wrong information about vegans needing more vitamin, mineral supplements, not at all, if they are eating healthy same as any diet, they are better off in result with vegan diet.

Few years go u BBC said must take vitamin now they said no !
So the essential question is, what is a nutrient-deficient diet? There is no discussion here of the reduction in micronutrient density in fruit and vegetables, due to selective breeding for traits such as appearance, and shelf life in particular, which produces food less likely to rot - i.e. less likely to support a population of microbes. If a microbe doesn't want to eat your food, it probably isn't going to sustain you very well either.
Another thing not discussed is the preparation of fruit and veg. Water soluble vitamins - the Bs and C - are dissolved into the water by cooking even for a short time. So if you throw the water away, you are also throwing away the vitamins. Vitamins A, D, E and K are fat soluble, and are more likely to remain after cooking.
Finally, the preservatives (i.e. anti-microbial chemicals) that is put on our fresh produce must be devastating to our gut micro biome, therefore giving us poor nutrient absorption.
All of these factors influence the nutrient-deficiency of the modern diet.
I am a 50 year old white man, therefore ridiculously privileged, upper middle class. I have a rich diet with lots of fruit and veg (most of the time - I have my vices), some of which I grow myself, and all of good quality due to my nation's excellence at agriculture and horticulture. But if I stop taking my daily 500mg vitamin C supplement in particular, within a week chronic skin problems like eczema and athlete's foot flare up on my body, and eventually even yeast infection, and get worse until I start taking the supplement again. This is despite the fact I grow a lot of my fruit myself, (and as a horticultural professional they are well-fed trees with a wide range of nutrients) and usually eat it raw. I also will get a cold, which does not usually happen to me, despite being a teacher. Other than fruit I have a low-carb diet as well, and most of it based on complex carbs. So I have a good to very good diet. I feel that to avoid the need for micronutrient supplements my diet would have to be exceptional - which is the essence of my point - most people, even in wealthy nations and sectors of society DO have a nutrient-deficiency, which is not easy to fix by altering diet alone.
I have eczema, I will try to take more vitamin c. I never thought to supplement on it specifically because they say that you already reach 100% if you eat fruits and vegetables (which I do). Thank you for sharing your story.
Thank you very much for this vital information. I took omega 3 while pregnant with my son and he came out looking relaxed, very healthy n peaceful baby boy in 2007. Unlike the babies who did not take omega 3 ! Then I gave a baby I had prematurely at 37 weeks Omega 3 after she was born and she grew healthy very quickly and put on weight. Now am 48 years and I resumed taking multivitamin supplements after I had gone on a dry fasting and my body lacked enough vitamins, my teeth n bones were making sounds.
Interesting! The implications for reducing crime snd violence in society is huge. The study of vitamins in prisons suggests that by providing children and adolescents with the proper food and vitamins , prison populations would decrease and save many from a life in prison while saving taxpayer dollars across the board. Wow!
Of course the US will never use this information for society’s benefit, it would take money out of a lot of already heavily lined pockets.
People pay ridiculous prices for their vitamins just because they are advertised by whatever celebrity/so called professional. Basic multi-vitamin/mineral pill that has 100% of daily recommended amounts here in northern europe costs like few euro cents per day if you just buy a non branded version.
All vitamin supplements are available online from reputable suppliers and are extremely reasonably priced. That's why big pharma isn't interested in selling them as the porofit is negligible compared to the vast profits from pharmaceuticals, all with lists of dangerous side effects.
The video has too many typos and errors as to render it unreliable information. It contradicts publications I've read in authoritative databases like the NIH, pubmed and ncbi.
Yeah the typos are quite embarrassing for the BBC but the data is very ''one sided'' - as in, _some_ data do suggest what's said in the video, but without links to the sources... It isn't a great way to share information. Nutrition Science is very particular as there are TONS of factors to take into account and the studies related to nutrition are often filled with bias

Thank you again for this! My phone must have spoken with you because me and my daughter have been talking about multivitamin supplements.
Actually since starting vitamin c 1000 mg every winter I avoided having colds
And vitamin B complex helps me a lot for my anxiety
Moderation is the key. The amount of dosage,, and # pills per day. Last but least for how long? Instead taking daily, try every other day might help as well. Buy vitamins from a certified company.
u're correct on 'moderation'. for me, i took fat vitamins (A, D, E & K), but not daily because its stored a bit longer than water soluble supplements
For your 2 dangers example would have been better to define what "high amount" meant, if they were given 800%of the daily recommendation most supplements are well below
Precisely. Some clarification would have been helpful.
Yes but some people unwittingly take multivitamins and specific ones on a daily basis and they probably are taking far too much.
To my understanding you can supplement, but the form and quality of the supplement you take is very important and good quality that your body can absorb it, whether you're taking vitamins and minerals selectively or not. Some vitamin supplements are a waste of money, especially some of the ones sold in drug stores.
vitamins for low SE areas to reduce crime? could be one of the most cost effective measures ever
I experienced noticeable deterioration in short-term memory after recovering from covid, and taking omega-3 supplements appears to improve the situation
Important topic
If I want the truth about something, the BBC is the last place I would look for it.
This program starts by saying that supplements don’t work and then goes on to highlight “the exceptions” as if these situations could be isolated in some way. Furthermore they then pick out the one (well-known and often quoted) study that showed an exacerbation first cancer. Ignoring the many thousands of studies that have shown tremendous benefits of supplementation where specific supplements were targeted for specific issues.
To get the most out of your supplements only take them twice a week, not everyday. That's the sweet spot for getting benefits out of them.
Based on what
Nonsense. D3 needs to be taken daily, and once the level in serum has reached an efficient level of approx 150nmols/L 5,000 IUs daily is enough to keep the level where it needs to be. D deficiency is why so many get flu every year in 'the flu season', I haven't had flu or a 'common' cold for twenty years. I didn't suffer anything from Covid or the vaccines.
@@jimbojimbo6873 not sure what the base is but I can attest to the fact that after I tested deficient for vitamins b12 and d, my doctor prescribed me supplements to be taken twice a week. 🤷🏽♀
2:25 an example of over-simplification to the point of nonsense. ALL parts of all living things are made of nutrients. "Nutrients" is just a technical term for food. Protein, carbohydrates and fat (and I argue - plant fibre) are macronutrients, vitamins and minerals are micronutrients.
"But of course, we need to wait for more research."
Astonished that this report made no mention of the known link between Vitamin D deficiency and outcomes for those who get Covid.. and the distinct possibility of. link between high levels of vitamin D levels and protection against infection... how can this be omitted in a report about the pros and cons of supplements in 2022?
Yes. The max safe level is 4000 IU a day if vit D levels are not checked. Deficient vitamin D levels have to get checked as 4000 IU won't cut it.
Take them for three months..then stop for a month. If you don’t notice a difference in metabolism, mood, and skin, you’re on the perfect diet- should also write a book about it. But you probably will, as I did.
Just know your deficiencies.
One thing to note, not all brands and ingredients are equal.
A great diet is the best thing you can do for yourself, however many people are sick including many with good diets .. our soils are depleted of nutrients plus all the pesticides.. hence why we need supplements
Please provide the scientific study on cancer relative to supplement safety. I read many studys and have not found anything you refererenced. Science rules; not your words here.
Supplements should be taken wisely.

Some supplements can not be replaced by meals. Like Nad+ supplement. I feel incredible heath benefit from it and I can not eat a ton of broccoli for it.
Fish oil, B12, zinc
i only take a 500mg vitamin C whenever i was having a serious runny nose problem
Ah I forgot to add a very important bit - taking vitamins that you don't need or overdosing on VMS (Vitamins, Minerals, Supplements) that you do need can be every bit as bad as having a deficiency. Adults and children tend to overdose on things that taste good (like chewy vitamins) and both men and women overdose on supplements for weight gain, hair retention, complexion, etc. Overdosing turns vitamins into toxins. I was involved in the sale of VMS and other health products. Again the video is superb, good work BBC with my license fee!
Adding lentals to pasta sauce sounds like a great idea! Thanks! The rest of the vid was a banger also.
Great video, very balanced.
Be careful not to take over 100% a day, especially of the fat soluble vitamins, unless you have a problem absorbing them.
Getting a big load of any nutrient at once is never beneficial to the body, just eat real food.
I k ow I feel better when I take them regularly and consistently. Vit d, mag, fish oil
I know I take them regularly and feel no benefit whatsoever 😉
@Vicki it is called placebo effect!
I do feel better after taking magnesium and omega 3, there is scientific evidence.
"reduce the risk of x" doesn't actually mean anything with vitamins, though. These synthetic vitamins are either being absorbed and utilized in the body or they're not.
What synthetic vitamins? They are natural, not synthetic, usually obtained from plants or animal byproducts. Vitamin D for instance is made from lanolin retrieved from washing lambs' wool. Mushrooms are a good food source, they make D in the skin from exposure to sunlight as do humans, but other mammals, with hair blocking the UVB get it from plants oir meat dependiong on their diet. Dogs for instance need fresh uncooked meat, which is why those fed on machine processed kibble usually die young from cancers.
@@petersimmons3654 99% of vitamins and minerals in the store are synthetic and just cause toxicity to the body , food based vitamins or just eat real food
@@petersimmons3654 vitamin C is made in a synthetic lab and many other dont think these are natural unless you get a high quality one but no one has those

I only take vitamin d with magnesium, iron with vitamin c & b12 because every time I take a blood test I'm very low on vitamin d and i have anemia
"Take care of your body. It's the only place you have to live in." - Jim Rohn
Good overall advice, however it would be even better to talk about the wide spread deficiencies and presence of toxic elements. Vitamin D3 + K2 , Zinc, Iodine can be found in food but usually not enough in common western diets. Vitamins are also needed depending on the way of life and habits, if you are black or work at night or obese (or all 3), vitamin D is missing, etc. As some toxins are inevitable, it is also good to help organs do their cleaning job. There are not only the fructose without fiber and ethanol that are toxic, there are also things like glyphosate and PFAS, PFOS, etc. Some Fish like salmon can help fight heavy metals (even when those contain some), also increase gut biodiversity by eating various food, cheese crust, etc. A lot of modern behaviours and things that are sold in supermarket lead to type II diabete, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, etc. The most important is to check blood levels, and do individualised suggestions.
Exactly! Blood test should been taken and people got into OPTIMAL levels (like in pregnancy).
I recently got blood results back where I was only low on Iron, B12 and Folic acids (not anemic!). I have been suffering from severe fatigue. I suggested to my doctor that perhaps I could try to correct those levels under his care. 3 months later, my fatigue is much better and some of my long-term symptoms have disappeared!!!
The problem is that *I needed to suggest it to my doctor* instead of him noticing it. It's because their training. Or more like the lack of it.
Variety of foods generally suffice.
If they were picky or only eat limited selection they're at greater risk of vitamin deficiency.
Vitamins are used to aid vitamin deficiency rather than improving ___??? I don't even have a clue why people take them for.
Most people in the UK don't get enough Vitamin D. Very few normal foods contain Vitamin D. We mostly rely on our bodies produce it internally. But for that to happen, we need sunlight, which we don't get enough of either. Anyway, it seems not all vitamins are from food!
@@GT-tj1qg I'm sure it must be true for other countries that are closer to poles. Vitamin D is definitely understandable during close to winter seasons but, others not quite even in general sense.
Thank you for sharing.
Vitamin supplements ofcourse would reduce violence. When your body has what it needs it increases your mental wellbeing too. It really does effect how the brain functions, For anyone who doesn't believe me you can just try vitamins for yourself or drastically changing your diet, Even thought patterns change.
I agree! Whenever I start to feel myself slipping into a depression, I take some omega 3, Vitamin D, and Vitamin C. In a short period of time, they really improve my mood!
@@deborahblackvideoediting8697 you supplement vitamin C? What on earth does your diet look like that this is something even remotely necessary?
@@ravecsucks6192 - Well, it's pretty good. I started (clean) keto in January, and so I eat no sugar or processed foods. I eat good quality proteins and fats, and about 3-4 cups of veggies a day. (I'm slowly increasing that number.) I've just always felt better with a vitamin C supplement, even though I usually get plenty in my diet.
I remember reading a meta study that found that roughly 25% percent of studies found vitamins to have marginal health benefit, 25% had no health benefits, and 50% had an increase risk of cancer. That really killed my daily vitamin intake... killed it like cancer.

Vitamins and supplements are not the same though. Although all vitamins, are technically supplements, not all supplements are vitamins. For example; curcumin is a supplement (in that it's often sold isolated) as a supplement. At this point there's no debate about its efficacy, as its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, as well as selective hypotensive effects have been studied in vivo and in vitro, and while a minor percent of studies found it to be of a low or moderate efficacy, non was could objectively claim it was innert.
Vitamins, save perhaps for Vit D. (which really is a hormone but I digress) in supraphysiologic concentrations are always either ineffective or even hazardous, like in the example with the Retinol. The beta-carotene, however, while somewhat less bioavailable is perfectly safe, and save for the carotenemia, no adverse effects were recorded, even in when extremely large amounts were taken for prolonged periods.
So we can't generalize by lumping vitamins and supplements together, considering not even all vitamin forms act the same.

Alright bro
All this is meaningless without any form of studies to back it up. Some of the claims seem a bit far fetched as others have also noted.
I had vitamin deficiencies all my life despite being very health conscious with my diet, but I have been getting fully healthy blood test restuls only after I became vegan and again mostly with healthy diet. My health approach to food I consume did not change, only meat and dairy and fish removed. The result - my GP was also amazed how vegan diet took away my chronic vitamin deficiencies. So, please stop sharing wrong information about vegans needing more vitamin, mineral supplements, not at all, if they are eating healthy same as any diet, they are better off in result with vegan diet.
Any study demonstrating that adding lentils to your diet is beneficial? What about lectins and other chemicals that can irritate the bowel?
