ETHINYL ESTRADIOL plus NORGESTREL (Ovral®, Lo/Ovral®, Low-Ogestrel®)
Commonly known as the birth control pill, this combination of synthetic estrogen and progestin is used to prevent ovulation and thus prevent pregnancy.
Which Nutrients Are Robbed
Taking this medicine may deplete your supply of, increase your need for, or interfere with the activity of:
folic acid
magnesium
tyrosine
riboflavin
niacin
vitamin B6
vitamin B12
vitamin C
zinc
Restoring the Nutrient Balance
Speak to your physician about taking 800 mcg of folic acid, 1500 mg of magnesium, 250-500 mg of tyrosine, 25-100 mg of riboflavin, 50-100 mg of niacin, 100 mg of vitamin B6, 500-1000 mcg of vitamin B12, 250-1500 mg of vitamin C, and 50-100 mg of zinc. You can also eat foods that contain the depleted nutrients.

Very good.
Yes the birth control pill interfers with a lot of things and causes new problems.
When folate is blocked from beneficial flora bacteria there is decreased immunity to HPV, (human papiloma virus) in sexually, multi-partner people. Bill Sardi has a chart on his site that explains this. The public is never told why this virus proliferated in society. Now we have a market agenda of vaccines. More drugs.

Folate is a building block of seratonin along with mag., vitamin c and L-tryptophan. Block folate, mag and c, then you have problems with depression. Folate is also very important in cellular replication. Omega 3 oil as in fish oil is also a part of the depression problem, which are greatly lacking in the standard american diet, (s.a.d).
Im strongly convinced the blocking of folate by birth control pills and the use of synthetic hormones, (rBGH and others, its a long list) and steroids in the non-organic meat and dairy industry contribute the most to the problem of breast cancer.
Cancer was created by man and his thinking that he could manipulate everything in the natural world to his order of thinking of the way things should work.
Use of birth control pills alters probeneficial bacteria that produce several of the vitamins listed including folate, b-1, b-12, vitamin k, enzymes as well as releasing agents emitted by pro-flora that subdue candiasis.
This yeast is always there in both men and women and held in check by releasing agents of probacteria.
When these probacteria are altered then candiasis yeast can take over.
As a note, avoid chlorinated/flouridated water and supplement regularly with probacteria. This type of water kills ALL bacteria not just bacteria in between teeth and in the pipes.
Since the cell wall of candiasis is comprised of cellulose a digesitive enzyme can disolve this followed by replacing the probacteria in capsules and limiting sugar and carbs.
Synthetic drugs only seem to cause more problems.
When the population uses birth control drugs it opens huge markets for depression drugs, virus vaccines, digestive drugs, antibiotics, cancer treatment, surgical proceedures and many more over the counter products.
