What do You Think of This Statement - All disease is...

[DavyKOTWF]

All disease is caused by vitamin or mineral deficiencies.

I would want to see science back up that statement ,other wise it's moot

 

[DavyKOTWF]

My take, is that most diseases are from vit/mineral def's - that is, at least 50%.

 

[Samadi]

Do you mean lack of vitamin or mineral deficiencies is caused of all disease?

 

[Adaptogen]

It's incorrect and ignores other causes of disease such as inflammation, oxidative stress, microbial/pathogens/viruses etc.

A person may be getting enough food to eat, but sometimes the food may not contain a particular nutrient. If this continues over a long period of time, the person may suffer from its deficiency.
Deficiency of one or more nutrients can cause diseases or disorders in our body. Diseases that occur due to lack of nutrients over a long period are called deficiency diseases.

Well, not really. Let me expose you to some nuclear radiation, and when you melt down into liquid form, we can talk about vitamin/mineral deficiencies

But I think there is some truth to the statement.
