Our bodies are living organisms that need a constant supply of essential nutrients in order to generate new cells, ward off disease, and remain healthy. When we take a multivitamin supplement it makes up for the nutrients we don\u2019t get from the food we eat.<\/p>\n
Do I need take a supplement?<\/p>\n
Theoretically, a balanced diet will provide with essential nutrients. In reality it is hard to achieve.<\/p>\n
These are days of multitasking. Unfortunately, it spares us little time to grab a nutritious bite and exercise. Stress takes its toll. Contrary to our belief we are not eating right , leave apart the exercise. Years of depletion have robbed our soil and consequently its produce of essential nutrients. Hence, we have to look for supplements to fill in those gaps.<\/p>\n
Our bodies are living organism that need a constant supply of essential nutrients in order to generate new cells, ward off disease, and remain healthy. When we take a multivitamin supplement it makes up for the nutrients we don\u2019t get from the foods we eat. If we are missing these nutrients we can build up deficiencies that can lead to all sorts of health problems- for example cardiovascular disease, problems with the immune system problem, even cancer.<\/p>\n
Who needs supplement?<\/p>\n
Recent research says that all adults and children can benefit from a multi-vitamin supplement.<\/p>\n
Supplements help maintain health and vitality as age advances. Lactating mothers, adolescents and pregnant ladies need extra nutrition.<\/p>\n
Our nutrition reserve often lacks in calcium, magnesium iron, zinc, copper and manganese. Iron deficiency is common in girls and ladies.<\/p>\n
Smokers are low on Vitamin C.<\/p>\n
Strict vegetarians and elderly people need to replenish B12 vitamin as it wards off anemia. Ladies on oral contraceptive pills and alcoholics are short on B and C vitamins.<\/p>\n
Ladies should take a folic acid supplement before and during pregnancy to prevent birth defects.<\/p>\n
People with kidney disorders have less of vitamin D in their system.<\/p>\n
Multivitamin supplements contain several vitamins or minerals instead of only one vitamin or minerals. Some vitamin or minerals yield more benefits when they are taken together with some other vitamin or minerals.<\/p>\n
For example<\/p>\n
* Vitamins C and E are more effective when taken together.<\/p>\n
* Taking selenium increase the heart-healthy effects of vitamin E.<\/p>\n
* Vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and folic acid are most beneficial when taken together.<\/p>\n
* Calcium and magnesium work better when taken together.<\/p>\n
