Vitamin Supplements

Vitamins are organic compounds that are needed for a variety of metabolic processes. Taking vitamins 'just in case' is not advocated by health experts. It is best to get vitamins from eating a varied diet. Taking vitamin and mineral supplements instead of eating a nutritious diet is not recommended.

Vitamins are necessary for the normal functioning of the body. However, taking vitamin supplements on a regular basis is not necessary. Breast milk contains adequate amounts of all vitamins except vitamin D , which may need to be supplemented.

Most people do not eat the recommended 5 fruits and vegetables a day and do not consume an adequate amount of Vitamin C. In these instances, a supplement may be beneficial. The people who may need vitamin supplements include pregnant and lactating women, some vegetarians, people who drink large quantities of alcohol, drug users and the elderly.

Only small amount of vitamins are needed to your body daily. A varied diet generally provides enough of each vitamin and mineral. However, some people may need supplements to correct deficiencies of particular vitamins or minerals. People who may benefit from vitamin supplements include:

  • People who drink alcohol above the recommended safe amount.
  • Cigarette smokers.
  • People who live sedentary lifestyles.
