Natural Vitamins vs. Synthetic Vitamins

Two types of vitamins exist on the market toward: nature-made vitamins and man-made vitamins.

The man-made vitamins are produced in a factory somewhere. They are cheap to make, often are 1/10th the cost of nature-made vitamins, and thus are found in most of the multi-vitamin products you find on the shelves of stores.

Unlike natural vitamins, synthetic vitamins come in a different structure. Man can't quite mimic the molecular structure of natural vitamins, so these man-made vitamins aren't as easily recognized by the body. In fact, many times their structure is too distorted for the body to even use. Like a man dying of dehydration on an oceanic island, the cells cannot use the vitamins around them.

Natural Vitamins

Nature-made vitamins, on the other hand, are easily utilized by the body. The body has had thousands of years to adapt to their molecular structure. And when vitamins come from whole foods, these vitamins aren't fractured, distorted, or distilled; they are in pure form. Throughout the evolutionary process, the body became skilled and effectively and efficiently utilizing these vitamins. It also got used to using the other nutrients that the whole food provides.

Thus, the body often wants the iron, calcium, or potassium to help utilize the vitamin a, c, or d that's found in your whole-food vitamins. Thus, it's great to give your body the ENTIRE food. Thus, the best natural multi-vitamins (http://mortersupplements.com/superv1.html is a good one) are the ones that come from whole food sources.

A few companies make these whole-food, natural multi-vitamins (http://mortersupplements.com/superv1.html). MorterSupplements.com is one such company, and others exist on the web. Expect to pay between $20 and $50 for a 30 day supply. And make sure the vitamins come from a whole food source. Your body will thank you. And so will your pocketbook, because whole food multivitamins are the most efficient source for vitamin utilization.
