Supplementing

I have not addressed this because I am still confused about it. I have read many different sources and my conventional doctors (I have many now) range from ignorant but tolerant to anti supplementing. I am now taking handfuls of supplements based on my reading, but basically I still feel like I am feeling my way in the dark. I will address this more thoroughly when I feel more secure in my knowledge. I have been seeking a source of USP certified (meaning the content is certified as being what it claims), MTP certified (meaning it meets the US manufacturing standards) as well as being natural and organic vitamins and supplements. No luck thus far.

The spiritual counterpart of supplements as I see it are Bible Studies or Small Groups for Christian growth or prayer. The most amazing, concise, and practical study I have ever been in is through an organization called Elijah House International. It is a series to prepare Christians for what they call "prayer counseling". Basically it is a summation of Biblical principles put in a very usable package, taught in a series of DVD's over a period of 2 years. I am going through the program for the third time and it always amazes me with Biblical concepts that I did not completely implement before. The reason I equate this with supplements is that both are trying to get the most nutritional wallop into the most compact form.
