Sunny C-1000 is the ticket. Sailors on long voyages developed a horrifying condition where their teeth fell out, old wounds reopened and led to terrible infections, and they’d bleed from every orifice before . . . dying . . . in agony. It was so common that ships routinely lost more crew to this terrible condition than to storms, pirates, or warfare all combined. Fact: Scurvy killed millions of sailors between the years of 1500 and 1800. This is where it gets really interesting: we humans are among the few mammals that cannot make our own vitamin C. Georgia Austin, Certified Clinical Nutritionist/Certified Nutrition Specialist, joins the show to discuss "why" Vitamin C is so vitally important to all of us today.

Poor Nutrition, Types of Magnesium, Zinc. Our Standard American Diet is rich with the poorest nutritional value. Somehow, we’re not getting the nutrition we need, jeopardizing our current level of health and wellbeing, making us more susceptible to every sickness and disease.
