[q] Deficiencies

[a] - A problem today because the food we've been consuming for the last four/five generations has been stripped of its vital nutrients.

- The body does not have the necessary catalysts of enzymes and minerals it needs to digest food properly.

- A diet high in refined carbohydrates will also be deficient in vitamins, minerals, and enzymes - those elements that keep the glands and organs in good repair.

- Because of the severity of our deficiencies, we must supplement even if we are eating a perfect diet.
