Good nutrition is a foundational component of an active healthy lifestyle. Good nutrition also lends itself to better energy, stronger immune function, better building blocks for tissue growth and repair, making of hormones, detoxifying the body of toxins, promoting overall wellness and supports stressful lifestyles. Many people attempt to lead healthy lifestyles, yet often struggle with nutritional deficiencies and not even know it.
One of the key elements of a sound nutritional program is micronutrients that include vitamins, minerals and other essential nutritional elements. Unfortunately, the vast majority of Americans are deficient in micronutrients and other essential nutritional elements.
Why? Most American diets are lacking the key micronutrients necessary for optimal health. Even those who eat a balanced diet, consume organically grown foods, and are disciplined in their eating habits, are not absorbing vitamins, minerals and other essential nutrients properly.
Poor cooking methods and food selection, chronic stress, poor soil conservation, industrialized food production along with many other factors contribute to nutritional deficiencies found in the adult and children population as well. Overwhelming evidence reveals that micronutrient deficiencies are associated with inflammation, lowered immune function and chronic disease, therefore affecting physical and mental health, and ultimately, quality of life.
Furthermore, our micronutrient requirements at age 20 are quite different from our requirements at ages 40, 50, 60, and beyond, making supplementation even more important as we age.
The bottom line; children and adults are not getting enough nutrients to meet their most basic micronutrient needs.
For these reasons, multivitamin, mineral and other supplementation is needed in your nutritional program.
