A Quality Multi-Vitamin Changes Your Quality of Life
Lafayette, In (PRWEB) August 02, 2015 -- One of the most commonly asked questions is "Why should I take a multivitamin?"
Ideally, we would all get our essential vitamins and minerals from our diet, but according to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), most of us do not. With this finding JAMA recommends taking a multivitamin as one way to promote better health. In the study, “Vitamins for Chronic Disease Prevention in Adults,” the authors see the “low cost of taking a multivitamin as ‘insurance’ against sub-optimal nutrient intakes” (Fletcher & Fairfield, 2002).
Multivitamin use can have varying short- and long-term health benefits.
Some short-term benefits can include: Long-term benefits include:
• increased energy • cardiovascular health
• stress reduction • decreased risk of osteoporosis
• enhanced immune function • improved eye health and brain function
"A single deficiency of any vitamin or mineral can endanger the whole body," CEO of AlignLife Dr. Joseph Esposito said. "Many people believe they are eating the 'right' foods, and getting the proper amount of essential nutrients in this way. Of course, eating a balanced diet is one way to obtain some of the vitamins and minerals you need. The problem is, few of us get a truly balanced diet."
According to one U.S. Government survey of 21,000 people, not a single person obtained 100 percent of the Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) for each of ten basic nutrients. Processing, storing, and cooking reduces the vitamin content of foods. Foods can also be adversely affected by chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and soil conditions. Nutrients are also adversely affected by smoking, alcohol consumption, and numerous health conditions including obesity and chronic illness.
"A good multivitamin your body will absorb and you will not be paying for expensive urine," Dr. Cherie Goble of AlignLife of Lafayette said. "It can give you reassurance that you are obtaining the proper amounts of vitamins and minerals needed for good health. Whatever your specific nutritional needs, a multivitamin should be the foundation of any nutritional supplement you take."
