I really do agree on this one, but at some point even though I eat this foods those nutrients that our body requires everyday is not enough. Our body needs a high maintenance when it comes to our immune system which might turn out to have a zinc deficiency in the future. Those foods are good but I think we still needs a supplement support to obtain the right amount of nutrients that our body requires each day. Do you agree on this one?
