The Advantages Associated With Nutritional Supplements
1. Some individuals wonder about the benefits of nutritional
supplements, even if they adhere to a healthy eating plan.
Most dietary supplements contain vitamins and minerals,
and are used by those who fear they are not acquiring
such nutrients from their food. Although such products
should not be used in lieu of a nutritious diet, they can
enhance an overall healthy lifestyle.
2. They can be taken in a variety of ways, with pills or
capsules being the most common. However, they can also
be found in the form of liquids, nutrition bars, or even tea.
Many people choose to use such products if they feel they
are not following an optimum diet.
3. Those who have sedentary lifestyles sometimes do not
engage in enough physical activity to stimulate hunger.
Therefore, their nutritional intake is not adequate. One's
age also plays a role in the absorption of nutrients.
4. Due to changes in the digestive system that occur as
people age, some individuals fail to absorb the nutrients
contained in the food they eat. When this is the case, a
person can be following a healthy diet, but he or she is
simply not absorbing the vitamins and minerals that it
contains. This is where the use of nutritional supplements
can be highly beneficial.
5. One may choose to consult a dietitian who can answer
questions regarding which vitamin supplements will be
best for his or her age and gender. However, as a general
rule, one should stick with traditional vitamins and
minerals that are established as healthy. Products that
have not been proven effective should be avoided.
6. Additionally, vitamins D, K, E and A should be consumed
with fat. This is because they are fat soluble vitamins. The
latter refers to the fact that they will not be absorbed
unless fat is present when they are consumed. It is not
helpful to use a nutritional supplement if proper
absorption will not take place. Furthermore, vitamins B
should be consumed in the morning and vitamin C and
Iron should not be taken on an empty stomach.
7. Supplements can also be found in the form of beverages
and nutritional shakes. Such products are typically rich in
proteins, trace minerals and lipids, all of which play an
important role in one's health. Prior to the addition of
any nutritional supplement, one should discuss his or her
intentions with a physician or other licensed medical
professional.
