Supplements

People often ask what type of supplements am I taking?  I like to keep it simple but efficient.  Here is my list.  This is not meant to endorse any brand, but to let you know what I am taking.  I am not being paid by any companies.

Multivitamin (Centrum)
Algal DHA (Spring Valley)
Calcium w/ Vitamin D (Citracal)
Probiotics (Probaclac)

Multivitamins and other Supplements can: 

• Combats Daily Stress
• Provides Needed Energy
• Prevents Vitamin Deficiency
• Provides Mental Clarity
• Prevents Cardiovascular Disease and Cancer
• Provides Essential Nutrients to Pregnant Women and Their Babies

What to Look for When Buying a Multivitamin
Not all multivitamins are created equally. You don’t necessarily have to purchase a name brand multivitamin, but you should consider the multivitamin ingredients. Read the label and see if it states that it contains Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, and folic acid.  You should also see if it contains the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) of copper, zinc and iron.

Some multivitamins are designed for a certain group of people.  Each of these brands contains beneficial vitamins designed just for that group.

Taking Other Supplements While Taking Multivitamins

Many people will also choose to take other supplements along with their multivitamins. For example, fish oil is a popular supplement that helps to lower the risk of cardiovascular diseases and other nutritional deficiencies. Many people will take Omega 3-6-9's in pill form and liquid form while taking multivitamins.

If you want to achieve better overall health, and if you don’t acquire enough nutrients through your diet, then you may want to consider adding a multivitamin to your daily regimen. It can be an easy and affordable way you can achieve better health.
