Natural/Organic Based Products
Not Just A Natural Approach to Nutrition-A Healthier Way to Live

Nutrilite's position on natural-based nutrition is fairly obvious.
In many ways, our success is built on the fact that all nutrition for
animals and man must ultimately begin with whole, healthy plants. This
was abundantly clear to Carl Rehnborg as he began formulating our very
first supplement.

Supplements Based on Whole-Foods  Carl Rehnborg recognized that plants
have the remarkable ability to turn inorganic matter-soil, sunlight,
water and air-into organic matter (new plant cells). Animals and man
cannot do this. The sustenance our bodies require to perform basic
living functions must come either from plants or from other animals
that eat plants. To put it in perspective, plants can exist without us,
but we cannot exist without plants. Knowing that plants serve as the
foundation for our food chain, it is only natural that NUTRILITE TM
supplements should also be based on whole-plant foods.

Phytonutrients-the Ultimate Source of Nutrition  Today, we know that
whole-plant foods offer a wide range of advantages. We also know why
these foods are so essential for optimal health. The answer can be
summed up in a single word: phytonutrients. Fresh, whole plants are
literally teeming with these natural compounds. A single tomato, for
example, may contain thousands of different phytonutrients. And while
the vast majority of them have yet to be identified, researchers do
know that many phytonutrients offer important health benefits. Needless
to say, researchers who support NUTRILITE products spend a great deal
of time identifying and quantifying phytonutrients, with the goal of
finding and concentrating nature's most beneficial compounds.

Oops! Tomatoes are off-limits if you are going to base your diet on whole
plants. While the tomato fruit is indeed nutritious, the rest of the plant
is quite toxic. The "whole plant" of the tomato is in the deadly nightshade
family of toxic plants as is the potato plant. So, no tomatoes, potatoes,
rhubarb, cashews, etc., for you "whole-plant" eaters. We fussier eaters will
continue to eat just the tastier non-toxic parts of plants.  ;o)  Rich
