Guest guest Posted December 3, 2004 Report Share Posted December 3, 2004 Why We Really Need Food Supplements A recent study of 43 garden crops led by a Univ. of Texas at Austin biochemist suggests that their nutrient value has declined in recent decades while farmers have been planting crops designed to improve other traits. The study was designed to investigate the effects of modern agricultural methods on the nutrient content of foods. The researchers chose garden crops, mostly vegetables, but also melons and strawberries, for which nutritional data were available from both '50 and '99 and compared them both individually and as a group. This is also another reason for eating 'organically' grown foods.
