WHO NEEDS SUPPLEMENTS
The benefits of vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements are increasingly being recognised for both their preventaive and curative properties. In fact they can fight everything from the comon cold (Echinaccea), to depression (St John's Wort), they can help prevent birth defects, (Folic acid) and improve mental functioning (Omega 3 fatty acid).
The importance of antioxidants, such as Lycopene and Selenium are known to be crucial to good health-research published in the New England Journal of Medicine (1996) found that taking a selenium supplement resulted in a 50% reduction in total cancer mortality.
Given the side effects of HRT many women are now successfully using herbal supplements (Black Cohosh, Soy Isoflavone) to combat some of the unpleasant symptons of the menopause. While men have been using a range of products (Saw Palmetto, Maca) to overcome various male complaints.
Certain vitamins and herbal extracts (Beta Sitosterol,Niacin CoQ10) have been demonstrated to help prevent heart disease the single biggest killer in the Western world.
Even the least well informed person is aware of the value of certain vitamins & minerals such as Vitamin C and Calcium.
Fewer people are aware that with a couple of exceptions the body cannot manufacture or synthesize vitamins. They must be supplied either in the diet or in dietary supplements.
Unfortunately, it is increasingly apparent that we are UNABLE to get the necessary level of vitamins and minerals from our diet. Not only, do we not eat the suggested 5 portions of fruit and vegetables a day, but modern farming methods and food production process's are stripping the food of the very nutrients so essential for health.
Given the increasing awareness by both the public and the medical profession of the importance of vitamin, mineral and herbal supplements, which one's could be of benefit to you and equally as important from whom you you buy- as with all products some are better than others.
