Vitamins, dietary supplements, minerals, essential nutrients and multi vitamins, the list goes on and on, and we are inundated with the marketing campaigns of the big vitamin companies, their TV ads are everywhere, but why? Are they really that good for you or is there just a lot of money in the vitamin business that everyone wants a piece of this wellness pie.  Unfortunately it is rather difficult to get all the daily requirements of vitamins from our diet. Being able to manage eating 5 serves of vegetables and 3 serves of fruit every day is a difficult task for most of us. For duel income families, finding the time to shop and prepare for a bountiful fresh produce diet can be a struggle

There is an easy way to get all the vitamins you need, in fact it is as easy as popping a pill; OK it actually is taking a pill. But first let’s look at the why before we decide on the how.   It is really important to get all the vitamins your body requires for normal cellular function. Just imagine if every single cell in your body is functioning to its ultimate best because these cells are getting all their required vitamins and nutrients. Taking vitamins in a capsule or pill is simple, economical and most importantly effective in the short and long term.

It may suit you to get with a program so that all your vitamins are the same brand, and all-natural. If you get an organized package each month you know you are getting all your vitamins balanced correctly and delivered. Make sure you get ones that are free of preservatives. Many vitamin tablets have preservatives in them. I have taken vitamins in pill form and liquid form and now also the oral spray. Just get the ones that suit you. If too many pills make you feel like a giant baby rattle then perhaps the liquid variety are better suited for your needs.  I love the liquid vitamins, and you can get some that taste great. Vitamins are especially important if you can’t shop for fresh local produce. Unfortunately, most of us get our produce from a supermarket, so it is not fresh. Michael Montignac’s book The Montignac Method explains frighteningly clear the rapid reduction of vitamin content in foods as the days, hours, and minutes go by, especially if they have been pre-cut and packaged for your convenience.

Once a fruit or vegetable is cut or sliced, the vitamins start to leave the food and continue to do so every hour. It is well documented now that much of the produce we buy from our chain supermarkets is sometimes days, but all too often, weeks old. If you buy fresh produce that is already cut, then you are eating it for flavor not vitamin content.  If you want to be healthier, loose weight or get rid of cellulite, it is vital that you get every cell in your body working at their optimum level thus ensuring all the systems are doing their job and working for you, not against your health goals. Vitamin supplements can do this for you.
