Good health starts in the womb, and yet very few expectant mothers even pursue good health. Fewer still actually achieve it. The result is a nation full of children born with birth defects, low bone density, lower potential for intelligence, allergies, nervous system disorders and even diabetes.
This is one reason why I'm such a strong proponent of providing free nutritional supplements to expectant mothers: every penny invested in the health of an unborn child saves a hundred dollars in long-term health care costs to society. Think about it: zinc is dirt cheap. But treating osteoporosis, obesity, diabetes or heart disease can costs hundreds of thousands of dollars. When these chronic diseases can be prevented for an investment of just pennies a day, it's madness to not make those investments.

"Big Tech and mainstream media are constantly trying to silence the independent voices that dare to bring you the truth about toxic food ingredients, dangerous medications and the failed, fraudulent science of the profit-driven medical establishment.
Email is one of the best ways to make sure you stay informed, without the censorship of the tech giants (Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, etc.). Stay informed and you'll even likely learn information that may help save your own life."
