If you are taking vitamins, make sure you are getting only the vitamins and minerals your body needs. Whole food sources are the best source for nutrients, because synthetic brands are often difficult for the body to absorb and tend to be unnecessarily expensive. This is particularly true of generic brands of vitamin compounds which are often sold at local health food stores. Many of these brands are sub-standard and even toxic to our bodies!
For example, many people take calcium on a regular basis, but they fail to take phosphorus. Calcium and phosphorus play a tandem role in our bodies, and therefore must exist in balance with one another. Taking calcium in the absence of phosphorus creates unhealthy stress on our cells.
I am not experiencing discomfort, and my blood tests are fine, why do I need to take Vitamins?
It is vitally important to pay attention to any changes in your body, because subtle changes can escalate into major health issues if ignored. These changes are usually gradual, and they cause disruptions in the body’s natural processes, which can indicate vitamin deficiency, or excessive toxicity.
A lack of discomfort does not indicate that you are healthy. Many heart attacks have no symptoms! We are all aware of those who have been diagnosed with diseases who never felt the pain until it was too late. By the time a blood test can pick up a serious problem with your health, it has been going on for a very long time.
Vitamins in the proper dosages can prevent and eliminate many symptoms you may be experiencing, in addition to the ones you won’t feel until much later. Vitamin and mineral deficiencies have been implicated in many common health related problems, including:
- Weight related issues
- High cholesterol, or high blood pressure
- Fatigue
- Insomnia
- Blood sugar problems
- Female reproductive issues
- Digestive Complaints
- Anxiety
- Prostate Problems
