1. The proper balance of vitamins is important to proper functioning and utilization.
Scientific research has proven that an excess of an isolated vitamin can produce the same symptoms as a deficiency of a vitamin. For example, high doses of isolated regular "natural" Free-State B vitamins have been shown to cause depletion of the other B vitamins.

FoodState ™ vitamins are in the balance found in foods.

2. Nutrient synergy is a phenomenon created when vitamins and phyto-nutrients combine to deliver a stronger vitamin function.
For example, for bioflavonoids to work properly, they must be taken with vitamin C. Recent studies show that bioflavonoids also may be a factor in preventing cancer and many other diseases. FoodState ™ vitamins naturally contain these phyto-nutrients, regular "natural" Free-State vitamins do not.

3. Vitamins are Coenzymes.
Vitamins do not work unless they are attached to their protein (enzyme) components. FoodState ™ vitamins contain these protein components, regular "natural" Free-State vitamins do not. A vitamin consists of not only the organic nutrients identified as the vitamin, but also enzymes, coenzymes, antioxidants, and trace element activators. Since enzymes are proteins, they must contain amino acids and trace minerals. "In fact, every mineral needed by living cells is commonly found in a natural assemblage of vitamin concentrates..." Vitamins are only effective when in the proper organic (organized) state.

4. FoodState ™ vitamins are live whole foods containing enzymes.
FoodState ™ vitamins are live whole foods containing enzymes. Heat, steam sterilization, refining of foods destroys enzymes and enzyme activators. Regular "natural" Free-State supplements are produced utilizing procedures that use these refining processes. They are not whole vitamins rather they are limited Free-State fractions. The crystalline or chemically pure regular "natural" Free-State vitamin, when separated from its protein (enzyme) component, has it’s biological activity and function destroyed.

5. To function as a vitamin, regular "natural" chemically pure Free-State vitamins must steal or borrow from the body’s naturally occurring components of that vitamin complex.
This process could "use up" the body’s reserves of those natural factors, leading to a deficiency of those components. TheseVital Food Factors are naturally an integral part of the vitamin complex. Being necessary to the specific vitamin’s form and function, a lack of these Vital Food Factors creates a deficiency of that vitamin. Additionally, most of the regular "natural" crystalline vitamin is lost through excretion in the urine. None of these problems exist with FoodState ™ vitamins all of the Vital Food Factors are naturally present, thus sparing the body’s reserves.

6. A single fraction of food, such as the "natural" chemically pure, crystalline vitamin
- whether taken from a natural complex or synthesized in a factory - cannot be an operable vitamin. Refined "white sugar" cannot be considered a substitute for fruit. It is poor nutritional practice to feed single factor of a natural food complex as a substitute for the entire complex, whether it is vitamins, carbohydrates, proteins, or fats.

7. Living things can only prosper and attain optimal health by ingesting nutrient rich whole foods.
Chemically pure, "natural", refined, fractionated, and Free-State vitamins are inert materials, non-perishable, and devoid of proteins (enzymes). Natural foods contain live substances. "It is now clear that even in that most materialistic science and physics, the limits of reductionism (isolation of "natural" sub-stances) have been reached. To explore the nature of science further, it is necessary to expand parameters to embrace the whole of any system (or nutritional supplement). The whole is always more than the sum of its parts. Analyzing or reducing something (vitamins) to its constituent can only tell us so much, to find out more, these parts needs to be seen in a broader picture that includes function and relationship."

FoodState ™ nutrients with their complete range of vital food factors are functional wholefoods.

The most crucial aspects of vitamin and mineral supplementation is the Protein Chaperones found only in FoodState ™ nutrients.
