Daily Vitamins

A lot of people tend to forget taking a multivitamin everyday because it can seem really pointless.  Taking vitamins everyday is a super easy way to stay healthy even if your diet is laking in a certain department.  While we might be thinking we are getting our essential vitamins through food, certain setbacks like farming methods, processing and cooking of food, and mass food production contribute to the essential nutrient loss in what we eat.  Simply remembering to take a pill every morning can help prevent diseases, get the nutrients we don't get in our food, maintain cellular efficiency, and to maintain a constant nutrient intake.  Although eating right and getting physical exercise is of course the most desirable way to be healthy, taking a multivitamin every morning definitely cannot hurt. If you eat healthy, workout daily, and take vitamins that you have a healthy advantage over most people.  Vitamins are an easy way to get nutrients that are harder to find in food sometimes so be sure to take advantage and start as son as possible.

  1. This feels like a great summary to a post you're going to write. But we need to see how vitamins work to be convinced; to understand how people who eat until they're full still don't get appropriate amounts of particular nutrients, and which vitamins might be better for certain types of people. Let's see some analysis here...

  2. That's actually a really good point. I remember as a kid getting those Flinstones chewables because I hated just swallowing pills. But now our schedules just consist of shower, brush teeth, hair, and getting dressed. we easily skip over something that takes no more than 2 seconds to do. and i know with me personally being Vitamin D deficient, that's a habit i need to get into.
