Why Taking a Multivitamin Every Day is So Important
No matter whom you are, how healthy you are, and how well you eat you should be taking a multi-vitamin. This is not as commonly practised as much as it should be, and because of that our body is often unable to get adequate amounts of certain vitamins and minerals that it needs to function properly. Now you may be saying well I eat well enough that I don't really need a multi-vitamin. Not true and I'll tell you why. Our bodies are constantly using vitamins and minerals, in order to help keep our bodies running efficiently and effectively. These vitamins and minerals are used at a much faster rate if you workout as well. Most of these vitamins and minerals can be gotten from eating things like meat, vegetables, fruit, grains, etc. However; because of today's soil quality, and some of the farming practices, our soil has lost a lot of these nutrients, and therefore our food is not as nutrient filled anymore. This is can hurt us because a lot of the vitamins and minerals our bodies cannot or does not store, they are just used as they are taken in. When our bodies are unable to get the amount nutrients they need to keep our bodies running in tip top shape, they begin to go into a deficiency of that specific vitamin or mineral. When your body has been deficient in certain vitamins and minerals over a extended period of time, it is unable to complete some of the functions that it has to in order to keep your body healthy. For example, if your body is deficient in iron your body will start to develop anemia, a deficiency of vitamin C will cause scurvy, and a deficiency in vitamin A has been linked to night blindness. For this exact reason the multi-vitamin was developed in order to make up any lacking vitamins that we may not have gotten enough of throughout the day. I would recommend getting a multi-vitamin that is iron free however; because, iron that is taken through supplementation can cause constipation. I would highly recommend that anybody who has a high or even low activity level, purchase and start using a multi-vitamin. This will help to make sure that you are getting enough of the vitamins and minerals your body needs on a daily basis, as well as keep you from getting sick. |
