This was a general cross section of the population. Included everyone, even
health nuts. As usual, I don't have a reference, but it was a very nice study
because it debunked the myth that you can get the minerals and vitamins
at RDA levels (which are laughable to begin with) from food alone. Not one
person out of 20,000!
