Nutrition supplements are more important today than they have ever been! Just take a look around you and you will see that society’s health status isn’t what is used to be or should be. There are more diseases today that start out being sub-clinical pathologies in world wide than there have ever been. This isn’t conjecture, this is scientific fact and the research is there to validate this. But don’t people live longer today than ever before? Even though some people live longer than is the past, what is their quality of life like if they do live longer? And if you take society as a whole and look at the statistics more and more people are manifesting diseases that weren’t around years ago. Why is that; and what can we do about it? Well, thankfully research into ways that we can prevent disease has shown that proper nutritional intake can offset the potential of getting sick. Good nutrition helps to protect us from the environment and aging, that is if all the nutrient co-factors are ‘in play’. And even with all the research that is available, there are some that ask the question “can’t we get everything that we need from food?”

Well it is just a plain hard fact that food just isn’t what is used to be 100 years, or even 50 years ago. The plants that many foods are derived from are grown in other countries where they are stored for months at a time, and lose nutrient content through oxidation. And here in the U.S. it has become common place to grow foods in nutrient depleted fields year after year. It is a well known fact that vitamins and minerals in the right amounts are needed for a variety of biologic processes that include, but are not limited to growth, digestion, mental alertness and resistance to infection. Specific nutrients enable your body to use carbohydrates, fats and proteins because they act like catalysts that initiate or speed up chemical reactions through out the body. So, if you happen to be depleted in certain nutrients that are needed to increase everything from energy levels to brain function all you have to do is take them, and you will feel a difference!

Unfortunately there aren’t a lot of studies that show that the decrease in nutrient content in our over all diet is causing ‘sub-clinical’ (as opposed to outright disease states where research shows proper nutrition helps prevent some diseases states) disease states that doctors find hard to deal with and treat. However, major medical institutions like the Mayo Clinic and the main stream medical Journals are now finally seeing that there is validation showing that taking a good multi vitamin and mineral product helps to control some of the medical problems that they have found did not respond other types of treatment.

Vitamin and mineral products are more important than ever in today’s fast paced world. Not only are we moving at the speed of light, but along the way we are exposed to a myriad of toxic waste that has become a part of our every day modern lives! And when it comes to the types of products to take and who should take them, there is a big difference in every group ranging from the elderly to teenagers, and there is even a difference between what should be taken by men and women! And the range of products and what they contain is mind bending. Products that are well designed typically contain what are known as chelated minerals, this is done because minerals in their nature inorganic state are poorly absorbed. When the minerals are coated with either aminos acids or a protein matrix this fools the body into absorbing them which increases what is known as their ‘bioavailability’. And since iron can be a problem for some, it is left out to accommodate this particular need.

Nowadays it is commonplace to also add antioxidants to high quality products that will help to protect the body from harmful substances and many forms of free radical damage. Free radical intrusion is one of the leading causes of cellular damage, which eventually leads pathological states such as cancer and many other disease states. Let’s face it; there are so many good reasons to take a good quality multivitamin and mineral supplement. But the most important reason relates to the depletion caused by our polluted environment, and the societal and alimentary deficits caused by the nature of the times we live in. Typically the biggest reason to supplement your normal diet today revolves around (as stated) the way our foods are produced (manufactured and processed) and grown, and what they are supposed to contain and don’t. The proof is there, the science leads the way, all you need to do is take the first step. †
