How important are vitamins and minerals for your health? Are you getting enough? Vitamins are essential for normal body function and maintaining resilience to diseases. So what does daily recommended dose means? Should we be taking vitamin and mineral supplements? This program looks at some of the research about vitamins and the growth of the supplement industry. But one thing is certainly clear. Nothing beats a well-balanced diet of fresh whole foods. Eating a diverse diet including plenty of fruits, vegetables and nuts are essential for health. If you’re eating a diverse range of seasonally fresh naturally produced heirloom fruit, vegetables, and nuts you’re going to have the best diet full of all the vitamins and minerals you need. Extra vitamins and minerals may be required to help in cases where people are recovering from diseases and sickness but changing your diet and lifestyle will keep you more healthy and fit. Along with activity and good mental control. Stress is a killer after all. Happy eating.
