Not everybody is willing to learn and to grow 100% natural products as yours.

We've had a few inquirie...Sharing Gardens here. We've had a few inquiries about whether we use any commercial vitamin or mineral supplements in our diet. The answer is basically "no". Because our diet is so nutrient-dense, we haven't felt the need for vitamin and mineral pills or tinctures. We've also seen some recent studies that indicate that eating these concentrated nutrients, isolated from their natural food sources can lead to strain on certain organs such as the kidneys and liver over long-term usage. It just feels more natural and holistic to secure these nutrients through whole-foods in our diet. <br /><br />When we recently took a class offered by a vegan doctor, we became aware that, for those on a plant-based diet (especially if you are fully vegan - i.e. NO animal products, that it may be important to supplement with Vitamins D and B-12. For these two nutrients we again rely on nutrient-dense foods. We've found a nutritional yeast that is supplemented with Vitamin B-12 and have discovered that mushrooms that are exposed to sunlight carry traces of Vitamin D. We go hunting for wild mushrooms seasonally (and freeze the surplus) and have friends also who bring some to us also. Also, since we eat eggs regularly and occasionally eat cheese and, as gardeners, we are probably exposed to more sunlight (a precursor to Vit. D) than most folks, that our levels of these two essential nutrients are probably fine. <br /><br />The only other "supplements" we use on a regular basis is a homemade tincture made from grain-alcohol (190 proof) and dried cayenne pods and citrus peels which are steeped in the alcohol for a month or more and drained off. For us, gargling with a slightly diluted eye-dropperful of this at the first sign of a cold, or any hints of oral infection (tooth-ache or foul smell) nips both these conditions in the bud!<br /><br />We also grow our own Ashwaganda plants and eat the leaves fresh during the summer and dried in the winter (either chewing them straight, or made into a tea). The professed health-benefits of Ashwaganda are legion (look it up!) and whether they are true, or just from the placebo effect, we're not sure but we have some form of the leaves 3-4 times/week and feel it helps our energy stay more "even" (less up and down) and our overall immunity to colds and flu remain strong.<br /><br />We hope this helps clarify things :-).
