Multi-Vitamin
Multi-vitamins are generally a combination of at least 10 nutrients for the maintenance of general health and wellbeing. Depending on the included ingredients, the benefits can be;
- providing support to the core body systems (immune, digestive, cardiovascular, etc)
- providing energy to support you through life’s daily stresses
- filling nutritional gaps where dietary intake is inadequate
While formulations vary by brand and product, the typical vitamins & minerals found in a multi-vitamin are;
- calcium
- zinc
- iron
- vitamin D
- b-vitamins
While you can obtain many vitamins through eating a healthy, balanced diet, many find it beneficial to take a multi-vitamin supplement. These supplements can help to increase your intakes of each vitamin, allowing you to feel assured that your nutrient intake is taken care of. Multi-vitamins can be used for daily vitamin & mineral supplementation where the dietary intake may be deficient.
