Vitamin Supplements
Requires Little, Gives a Lot!
Taking vitamin supplements is a crucial part to being healthy and fit. We don’t get all the nutrients we need from the food that we eat. There are also some nutrients that we couldn’t get even if we ate the healthiest food imaginable. The best way to fill in the gaps, and make up for any deficiencies caused by aging or illness, is to take supplements.
In my opinion, if a person isn’t taking advantage of these proven substances they are doing themselves a disservice. For many years, leading scientists and nutritionists have continually added to the list of benefits that supplements provide to the human body. These benefits include increased energy and alertness, better mood and outlook, less susceptibility to illnesses, enhanced capacity to recover from surgery and injuries, and the ability to improve or eliminate a wide range of medical and dental conditions. To learn about which vitamin supplements you should take for a particular condition, pick up a copy of one of Dr. Gary Null’s books . He is a nutrition expert who will get you excited about what supplements can do to improve your life. Vitamin supplements are essential to optimum fitness and health. There is no benefit to over doing it however. The key is quality not quantity. So be sure to select products and suppliers that you trust. I am only going to talk about what I have come to understand as being the most important general health supplements. Let me give you this advice. Before taking these or any other supplements, be sure to check with your doctor. This is especially important if you are taking any medications. Here is the list of supplements that I am currently taking along with comments on their benefits. - Vitamins & Minerals (High-potency, time-released tablets): Aids in general good health in numerous ways.
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids (Fish oil, softgels): Contributes to heart & vascular health. Considered by some experts as being the single most important supplement that a person can take.
- Flaxseed Oil (softgels): Aids in heart health. Some experts believe that it also supports men’s prostate health.
- Calcium (tablets): Promotes strong bones & teeth. Our body’s need for this supplement increases as we age.
- Fiber (Fiber therapy caplets): Helps to keep your digestive system clean and healthy.
- Saw Palmetto (softgels): Aids in men’s prostate health.
There are many more vitamin supplements that you might consider taking depending on your particular situation. I encourage you to look into it. You might discover something that will make a real difference in your life. Any true fitness enthusiast will attest to the importance of taking vitamin supplements daily. The benefits are indisputable. Go ahead, pop some VS pills! The intellectual high of knowing that you’re doing something good for body is subtle but good! To your health and fitness, Brad Paul
