Nutritional Supplement Information

 

Are we Getting Enough Vitamins - Minerals - Amino Acids and Trace Elements?


Vitamins are found in a variety of food sources. A balanced diet of breads, cereals, fruits, vegetables, red meat, fish, poultry, dairy, legumes, seeds and nuts will ensure that you get a satisfactory amount of the vitamins your body needs.

 

Today's busy lifestyle often forces people to eat fast food or convenient meals that unfortunately are not rich in the vitamins and nutrients that our body requires.

Another factor to consider is the quality of Australian fruit and vegetables. Australian soils are often over-farmed resulting in mineral depletion, especially of selenium and zinc.

Quite often produce is being picked early and not allowed to ripen naturally on the trees, leaving fruit and vegetables even more nutrient deficient.

 

FACT:

Many of us, even those who feel they eat well, do not eat a balanced diet.

Almost 40% of the kilojoules we consume come from highly processed convenience or snack foods which are high in fat and sugar.

 

People who don't get enough essential nutrients ( Vitamins ) :

  • Elderly (Often due to low digestion activity)

  • People who lead busy/ active lifestyles

  • Stressful jobs/ lifestyles

  • Poor diets/ Calorie restricted diets

  • Allergy Sufferers

  • Fatigue

  • Short/ long term illnesses

  • Smokers

  • Alcoholics

  • Vegetarians

  • Environmental pollution

Why Do We Need to Take Supplements?
Vitamin supplements can provide our body with optimal levels of vitamins to prevent chronic illnesses or disease. Furthermore, many people don't eat a healthy well-balanced diet all the time.

Factors that contribute to nutrient depletion:

  • Stress

  • Strenuous exercise

  • Alcohol

  • Caffeine

  • Dieting

  • Processed foods

  • Illicit drugs

  • Prescription drugs

  • Illness

  • Pregnancy

Essential nutrients ( Nutritional Supplements ) taken additional to a healthy diet assist by ensuring optimal levels of each of the essential nutrients.

 

Other non-essential nutrients can assist various bodily functions.
