What everyone should know.... learn how vitamins and supplements can work for you
Thirty years of research has shown that most chronic diseases in Australia are diet related.
Statistics reveal that although Australians are consuming more nutrients per person than ever, they seem to be receiving less nourishment!
This may be attributed to;
ŸSoil depletion from old soil and overworked farm lands
ŸPollution
ŸStress
ŸProcessed foods
ŸAlcohol, caffeine, illicit and prescription drugs
ŸDieting
ŸPoor digestion or illness
ŸPregnancy
ŸStrenuous exercise
Many of us, even those who feel they eat well, do not eat a balanced diet. Almost 40% of the calories we consume come from processed foods. These foods contain few of the vitamins and minerals we need. No supplement can be used as a substitute for a good diet - yet a good diet is not always enough.
The benefits of supplements
Every bodily function depends on chemical reactions in the cells. Without adequate vitamins and minerals, together with essential proteins, carbohydrates and fatty acids, energy is reduced, vitality diminishes, and illness may occur.
Supplementing with vitamins and minerals can improve your health and reduce your risk of chronic disease. A recent Harvard university study recommended the daily use of multivitamin and mineral supplements for all adults, and this practice is also supported by a large body of scientific research.
Some of the benefits that have been proven in taking supplements include:-
Reduced fatigue
Improved immunity
Helps your body cope with stress
Lesser risk of heart disease, cancer and birth defects
Reduced symptoms of premenstrual syndrome
Lesser risk of dementia, learning and behavioural problems
Balanced blood sugar and helps you lose weight
Simply put, along with exercise, taking appropiate vitamins and minerals is arguably the single best and easiest decision you can take to improve your health and wellbeing.

Why not buy cheaper retail vitamin products, they're all the same, right?
Wrong. Not all natural medicines are created equal. Cheaper retail products can often be obtained from pharmacies, heath food stores and supermarkets. To make a cheap product for the mass market manufacturers may compromise the quality and strength of raw materials. They may also speed the manufacturing process, which can destroy active ingredients through excessive heat and compaction.
Low-cost products often contain reactive fillers and binders, which further reduce the expense of manufacturing. Reactive additives commonly used to reduce expense and bulk the product include crospovidone, talcum, shellac, unstable oils, wheat (gluten), lactose, yeast and dairy protein (casein). Unfortunately, these reduce both the biological activity of the ingredients and their clinical effectiveness.
In summary, although budget supplements may contain many of the ingredients we recommend, these ingredients may not have the right quality, strength or dose to provide the necessary therapeutic effect for your condition.
