Food Supplements pros and cons

There is no evidence that any food supplement can produce better health than the food combining diet based on a wide range of natural ingredients. If you are following the food combining diet and are deficient in any area, then check the minerals and vitamins list for foods that are particularly high in that nutrient. If you do need supplements, you should only be taking them under proper medical supervision.

Many food supplements are dangerous if the recommended dose is exceeded, and are particularly dangerous for small children.

We have just recently started the Zone diet by Dr. Barry Sears.

It recommends we cut out ALL starches in our diet and replace it with protien, fruit (carbs),vegetables (carbs) and good fatty oils. Our question is...Is it safe to cut ALL starches from your diet even though we are loosing weight at a good slow steady pace???

We look forward to your reply...Thank You

No matter what I try I can't get to stay where I should be (ideally weight) I'm 54 yrs and weigh 196 lbs (with clothes minus shoes). not interested in diet pills but exercise can be hectic when I'm up since 2:30 am then afternoon comes and to burned out/tired to walk and if I do, it's no fun either... think I'm eating the wrong food. I've already cut out the coke/soda pop now thinking of cutting out or at least 90\% of food that contains flour... what do you think

If you take supplements on a regular basis does your body adjust to this "help" by lowering the effort it puts into keeping your body healthy. I am wondering if this is an action that is counter productive to good natural health.

As an example if you are weak in one area, say zinc(or calcium or a vitamin), if you take a zinc supplement does you body just adjust to the added zinc and when you stop taking the supplement are you in the same condition that you were in when you started taking the supplement?

Or do physicians tell you you are weak in a certain area, and you should take this supplement, and start eating more of this (whatever contains what your supplement is) on a regular basis so you can stop the supplement at a later date
