Dr. Joel Wallach addressed the human body's ability to achieve natural healing, along with the benefits of remedies and supplements that aid in the body's recovery from chronic conditions. Responding to a recent report that supplements aren't effective, he refuted the study saying they didn't look at supplementation of up to 90 different nutrients, which he considers necessary to maintaining good health. Wallach recommended a hair analysis/testing procedure that can show which minerals a person might be deficient in, and if they have exposure to toxic metals.
As to supplements for building bone strength and marrow, he recommended MSM, a sulfur compound that enhances joints, cartilage, and ligaments, as well as collagen peptides, derived from such things as fish, poultry, and beef. A person's bone marrow is particularly important to their health, he added, as that is where white blood cells and antibodies are made. Questioned as to what is the healthiest type of fruit to eat, Dr. Wallach replied that the health and quality of produce varies with the kind of soil they're grown in. Some soils, for instance, might be a lot higher in different types of minerals, he explained.
