Yet most Americans do not get even basic, recommended amounts. Research shows that:
- 93 percent have inadequate intakes of Vitamin E
- 80 percent are not consuming enough magnesium
- 75 percent do not meet recommendations for calcium intake
- 44 percent are lacking adequate intake of Vitamin A
- 31 percent do not get enough of Vitamin C
- 73 percent do not get adequate intake of Vitamin K
- Less than 5 percent gets an adequate intake of potassium
So do you still think we're getting proper levels of nutrition?
