We're a supplement-obsessed people ... but I really question how effective supplements really are. Are vitamins out of context (i.e., not in food) really that beneficial? This sounds like the kind of thing that works best as a habit. A Chinese-style cooking suggestion to make the eating veggies easier: most green leafy veggies taste great when stir fried in plain old vegetable oil, with liberal amounts of garlic and just a little salt to taste. Very easy to make, and tastes much better than steamed fare, in my opinion. I totally agree with you. We’re a supplement-obsessed people … but I really question how effective supplements really are.
