Answer to Question 1

Scientists are still learning about the substances other than traditional macro- and micronutrients that are present in foods. These substances in food may reduce the risk for developing certain diseases. Supplements typically include primarily well-known nutrients and often provide these in mixtures and quantities that are inferior to the mixtures and quantities of nutrients one can get from eating a varied diet.
