Feb 28, 2007 -- Certain vitamins may actually shorten life

With medicine and science, what we think is true may be completely wrong. Knowledge is a continuous quest, and, over time, we get better. Take, for example, the fact that we used to believe the Sun revolved around the Earth. We considered it a scientific fact at the time. But science and medicine are always changing, which is both good and bad. The latest about face involves vitamins. For years, companies have encouraged us to take Vitamins A, E and beta carotene supplements to prolong life. Well, a recent study conducted to prove that these anti-oxidants would do just that turned out to be completely false. And that isn’t it. The study conducted by the Journal of American Medicine also proved that those vitamins actually curtail your life. JAMA’s study says that taking those vitamins could cause you to die at a younger age. Joni, Clark’s pit bull producer, takes lots of vitamins every day. She thinks another study will come out soon disproving this one. We’ll see. The bottom line is that exercising and eating healthy foods, including produce that naturally contain these ingredients, will prolong and improve your life.
