Just a hundred years ago, many of the most common human afflictions were the result of an insufficient intake of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, due largely to the lack of availability or high cost of fruit and vegetables. Today, the pendulum has swung to the other extreme and although now almost everyone can afford and access fresh fruit and vegetables, we prefer to replace them with convenience foods. The most common diseases we see today have strong links with the changes in diet and lifestyle that have happened during the years.
