Let's talk about the five reasons why you should avoid synthetic vitamins.

0:19.9

Now what you need to know is this, there's a huge difference between synthetic vitamins

0:26.9

and natural vitamins. They're not the same. Some people say they're the same. A molecule

0:32.6

is a molecule. It's not. It's a different orientation. In nature, vitamins come also

0:39.6

in complexes, like become with trace minerals and cofactors and enzymes and associated factors

0:47.0

and vitamins. And also when you actually just buy natural vitamins, it could come as an individual

0:54.1

part of a complex. And that's a lot better than a synthetic. But there's always exceptions.

0:59.9

For example, there is a time and a place for synthetic vitamins. A short-term detoxification

1:05.4

program, totally fine necessary because you're using vitamins for a different purpose to help push

1:11.8

out toxins. So that's actually essential. But not as a maintenance. You don't want to do synthetic

whatever, realize that they're always using synthetic vitamins in these studies. They're not using

1:49.4

food concentrates, whole food concentrates at all. The other exception for synthetic vitamins would

1:56.2

be this synthetic version of B1, bent foe to me, okay? This is a fat-civil vitamin B1,

2:06.0

which doesn't appear to have any side effects. But it's great to penetrate the fat layer

2:12.1

in your brain, the fat layer around your nervous system, the myelin sheet, to help things like

2:17.1

peripheral neuropathy without any toxicity. And some of the water-civil vitamins are not toxic,

2:23.3

they just kind of run out to the body. So I'm not saying that all synthetic vitamins are toxic,

2:27.9

but some of them are especially the ones that are fat-civil. The next point is that when you take
