Synthetic vitamins significantly inferior to their performance alive. What these benefits? And how to use them in full force during the summer? Responsible Ph.D. in Biology, a leading researcher in the Department of Medicine All-Russia Institute of Medicinal and Aromatic Plants - You, as I understand it, the enemy of vitamins in pills, tablets, ampoules. Why? - I am not an opponent of synthetic vitamins as such. But living vitamins are more effective. To date, 200 known forms of carotene, lycopene in tomatoes, cryptoxanthin in the yellow corn and others. In the same synthetic drugs mainly introduce a beta-carotene, which is known to be found in carrots. But the body needs all forms. Beta-carotene is responsible for sharp vision, while other forms of help to slow the signs of aging, improve skin condition, have an anti-cancer effects. In addition to natural sources of vitamins combined with trace elements and substances needed by the body. In the same synthetic vitamins are no components that are essential for the body to vitamin absorption. The organism could donate them from their own stocks and to promote assimilation, but he himself is already experiencing a deficit. And without these components, synthetic vitamins do not represent great value. - But other experts say: to get out alive vitamins necessary number of trace elements, have, roughly speaking, to eat polvedra kilo of apples or blueberries. And it will agree, rather difficult. After all, easier to buy a pack of vitamins for a month and drink them every day. - Right, synthetic vitamins replace quantity but not quality. Because the effectiveness of vitamins is determined not so much the dose received by the body, how many of their biological fitness. Delivery of the cell only vitamin complex without all the accompanying entourage can be useful. But cells lacking substance needed for the effective assimilation of vitamins and minerals. According to the research, first conducted by the German physician Eugen Heun in 1951, and then continued by doctors from the United States and Canada - Walker and Pope, it is better to drink a glass of fresh-squeezed apple juice than, figuratively speaking, the use of five packages of vitamins and iron. Suppose you get an apple from the iron in small doses, but will be sure that the vitamins will go to those who need them and the cells will be effectively processed by the body. As well as blueberries, you can not eat a kilogram, but only a spoon, but your body will get a full vitamin, albeit in small doses. I advise you to regularly visit markets, shops selling fresh fruit, vegetables and greens. They can just eat, but you can squeeze juices - this is how you want. - And if people are out to get all the necessary living vitamins, will have pounds of apples, drink fresh-squeezed juices liters, can occur, let's say, an overdose? - Live vitamins are easily digested. Well, summer - this is the good time in order to help the body to get enough vitamins. Do not miss it.
