Defend the statement found in controversy that foods, not supplements are the best and safest form of phytochemicals.
Anika [276]

Answer:

The easiest argument is the next one:

Suppose phytochemicals are like money. If I put you in a phone cabin with a lot of money and give you 30 sec to be there collecting as much money as you can, at the end you will collect not all the money and a lot of money will be lost. The same happens whit phytochemicals in supplements there are so many that your body can't use them all.

And other thing is that phytochemicals in supplements comes so concentrated that your body will be overstimulated to take this phytochemicals and that changes your normal digestion, in the time it may looks good...but if you don't take supplements anymore, your body will feel the lost and the physical results would be awull.

Cross-pollination can be described as a process in which the pollen of one flower is transferred to another flower. The pollen when fertilizes the egg in the stigma, will produce offspring with varied genetic characteristics. This will be because the pollen would carry the trait of another flower and the egg of another flower. This will lead to many genetic variations.
