this is Antony Reed.

Welcome to Brain Spanking News

In this episode we're going to be talking about Whole Foods "Vitamin C Complex"

Why it's a scam and why synthetic vitamin C is as natural as your birthday-suit

Then stick around because I'm going to show you how to get the most nutrient-dense vegetables

And their not from your produce section

Thanks for joining me here at Brain Spanking News

I'm Antony Reed and today, I'm probably going to be ticking off some

People here on the Inter-Webs with some good 'ol fashioned health science

So you may have come across videos or articles, as I have

Claiming that ascorbic acid is not "real" vitamin C

And claiming the only way that you can get actual vitamin C is through a

Whole foods vitamin C complex

And it just so happens that those articles and those videos

Usually point you to someone who's selling that product

They say that in nature, what we know as vitamin C, ascorbic acid, is just a container

Holding a whole bunch of other goodies inside of a plant

They claim that ascorbic acid, due to its acidity, may have some benefit

But unless it's packed with these other goodies

it doesn't really have much of a health benefit

Albert Szent-Györgyi, discoverer of vitamin C

And Nobel prize winner for doing so said

What he discovered was ascorbic acid, and nothing else

In fact, the vitamin C deficiency disease, scurvy, can only be cured by ascorbic acid,

and nothing else

In this whole vitamin C complex

And while it may be true that plants use ascobic acid

As a way to keep goodies inside their cells

To do, maybe what the plants need to do

Is this really the only place in nature that we find vitamin C?

What they don't tell you, is that, aside from humans, guinea pigs

Most primates and a few species of fruit bats

All other animals, including spiders, elephants, worms

Birds, fish... create their own vitamin C in their livers

How do they do this if they don't have the vitamin C complex?

And what form of vitamin C do they create?

A whole foods complex?

No, it's simply ascorbic acid...

Vitamin C

Now you may think, fine... so we don't need a vitamin C complex

But isn't there some difference between a natural form of vitamin C found in nature

And something created synthetically in a lab

Now of course it's a great idea to get as many of your vitamins

And minerals as you can from good, whole, unprocessed foods

But whether or not vitamin C is made in a goat's liver or in a lab

As long as it 's the same chemical structure it is the same thing

The molecular structure for vitamin C is C6-H8-O6

Now as long as those atoms are in the right amount, in the right place, and the right

number

It's vitamin C

If you want to learn more on how high-dose vitamin C can truly change your life

Check out the description below I've added a bunch of links just for you

Now, as promised here's a health hack to show you how you can get the most

Nutrient-dense vegetables for you and your family

Whenever possible, buy your veggies from the freezer section

Rather than the produce section

The reason is, the veggies that are in your produce section

Were picked 2 to 4 weeks prior to being delivered to your grocery store

And it's during this period, the ripening period, when the vegetables

Soak up the most nutrients from the plant

Therefore, regular vegetables are much less

Nutrient-dense then their fellow frozen counterparts

Primarily because, their frozen cousins are actually picked at pique ripeness

And flash-frozen so that it keeps all the goodness inside

Well that about wraps it up for the day
