“We get depleted from certain things at higher rates and we can take those in isolation but, as a whole, we cannot ignore the entire symphony. That’s really how vitamins and minerals work is they all work together. You have to at least be nurturing each individual avenue of vitamins and minerals to really get the benefit, and that’s what the multivitamin that I created is. It covers the foundational pieces that you’re not going to get from your diet.” — @HollyJoyMcCabe [0:14:44]
