The deficiency of nutrients in the American diet is uncontested. Even if one believes they are eating a healthy diet, the hidden chemicals, GMOs, and pesticides in our food chain is disconcerting. Add to that the relevance of soil depletion over the decades, acid rain and contaminated water, air and soil. It just becomes way too difficult to tell yourself that you can attain all the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients you need in the American food market alone. If your physician tells you that supplementation in a waste of money- they are simply misinformed- it wasn’t taught in medical school. The main nutrients that are most deplete in our everyday diet include magnesium, zinc, B-complex (especially vitamins B3, B6 and B12), probiotics, and essential amino acids. This lack of nutrients leads to more negative ions in the body and less positive ions. This ion imbalance leads to the formation of calcium stones and accumulation of excess calcium deposits in our circulatory system, kidneys, joints – another direct correlation to FMS.

I don’t know the science behind it, but my guess is that the anti-fungal properties play a role in the success in busting through plaque psoriasis. As far as the bergamot, I knew that it was a terrific stress reliever and felt that the added boost would be beneficial.
