The World Has Changed – and We Must Understand How

Vitamin Deficiencies: Research Findings

According to studies from PubMed and Oregon State University, a significant portion of the population lacks essential nutrients.

Nutrient Deficiency Rate (%) Health Effects
Vitamin D 35% Weakened immunity, bone health issues
Vitamin E 88.5% Oxidative stress, weakened immunity
Vitamin A 43% Vision problems, immune system dysfunction
Vitamin C 38.9% Scurvy, poor wound healing, weak immunity
Magnesium 52.2% Muscle cramps, mental disorders, osteoporosis

Folic Acid (B9) Less than 1% Essential for fetal development, deficiency leads to birth defects

Declining Nutrient Content in Food

Fifty years ago, one orange contained more vitamins than today’s oranges. Modern crops have lower nutritional value due to soil depletion and excessive use of pesticides, phosphates, herbicides, and synthetic fertilizers. These chemicals degrade soil quality and reduce essential nutrients in food.

Major Health Challenges in Modern Society

While technological and medical advancements have improved our lives, they have also introduced new health risks:

  • Chronic stress and mental exhaustion
  • Lack of quality sleep due to fast-paced lifestyles
  • Physical inactivity and sedentary work environments
  • Overconsumption of processed foods loaded with sugar and additives
  • Environmental pollution affecting air, water, and food

Concerning Global Health Statistics

According to the World Health Organization (WHO):

  • 50% of the world's population suffers from gastritis
  • Heart disease rates are continuously rising
  • 15% of the population has type 2 diabetes
  • Chronic inflammation and depression cases are increasing

The Future of Health and Longevity

Many modern diseases could be prevented through early intervention and lifestyle changes. Recent research suggests that the human lifespan has the potential to reach 150 years (NCBI study).

Traditional Medicine and Holistic Health

For centuries, people have sought a universal method to prevent illness and promote recovery without side effects. Today, many turn to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), which emphasizes harmony between the body and nature.

Unlike conventional Western medicine, which primarily focuses on treating symptoms, TCM aims to restore balance and prevent diseases before they arise.
