People take it internally. Even topically on mucous membranes is an
absorbance route.

Sorry, I am suspicious of the lurking entrepreneurs, and not without reason.
Please make a disclaimer if you reference an actual brand.

I am on record opposing daily fruit consumption by modern peoples under
stress. As for vitamin/mineral pills–I generally favor such insurance, and
see very, very little downside, provided this is kept within the range of
reason, and doesn’t involve consuming omnibus pills with three hundred
ingredients in ug. doses.

No, Paul, I DON’T sell From The Earth.  I don’t even know if they are
really doing me any good.  I don’t feel any different since I have
taken them.  I take supplements because I have been led to believe that
most of us don’t get all we need from our diet.

What is your opinion of taking vitamin/mineral supplements?  Also, what
do you think is the best diet for most people?  Is there any food group
that you feel should be avoided?
