Reliv Is Not Natural - Dangers of Synthetic Vitamins

I think the comments from this former Reliv Distributor are very important something that we should all consider. Many people believe or are led to believe that the Reliv Products are completely natural but sadly this is not true. If you take a look at any one of their products you will see a very long list of ingredients and most of them are different chemicals. I would assume that most of them are harmless but some of them can be and are very harmful.

Read this article below;

When I was in Reliv, I used to tell people that we didn't have synthetics in the products until I received this information below from the company:

"Reliv follows the FDA guidelines and manufacturing practices, but the products are not classified as foods found in grocery stores. Reliv's products are not whole foods. The source of the nutrients in the products is from foodstuffs and synthetics as Reliv' uses both synthetic and natural vitamins and minerals.

"We use no ingredients, which are considered unacceptable by the FDA. We purchase them in powdered form from leading food ingredient companies and formulate them into finished products."

I also remember Carl Hastings telling us at conference that our bodies don't know the difference between synthetic and natural which is what I told countless people who didn't want to use synthetics. I finally gave up and found a company that has natural ingredients, such we find in Life Force products and other nutritional companies.

Quote from http://www.munising.com/vitamins.html "...The synthetic vitamin producers and sellers all claim that synthetic vitamins have the same molecular structure as the Natural whole plant, and are therefore the same or at least have the same effect. They never tell you that the polarity of the synthetic is opposite to the Natural and has the opposite effect. Synthetic vitamins always refract light, the opposite of the Natural Organic vitamin complexes. This suggests that you do not get protection from synthetic vitamins. In fact, the studies above show an actual loss of protection."

For myself, I choose to feed my body the best I can to prevent cancers and immune diseases. And when cancer does strike, we need to fight it with natural, organic food. Synthetic? That's one of the reasons I left Reliv and joined Life Force.

Then when I learned that we need to feed our cells first, it made sense. Get the cells talking and repairing years of stuffing ourselves with mega amounts of vitamin and mineral supplements that we think are being absorbed but our trillions of cells hardly recognize the nutrients. Think micro so the cells communicate! Here's more about it. http://www.attractgoodhealth.com/body_balance.html
