Vitamin and mineral supplements are a wonderful addition to anyone’s lifestyle. They are a lifetime maintenance program and “insurance policy” to secure health and wellness. Vitamins should be a part of everyone’s daily routine, no matter the age.
Prevention is what all human beings must practice daily to avoid any threat to their health and safety. You change the oil in your car to prevent your engine from burning and cracking, don’t you? You rotate your tires regularly to prevent wear and tear on your tires to prevent an unexpected flat, don’t you? You balance your bank checking account to prevent bouncing checks, I assume.
To prevent illness and degenerative disease, take extra supplements regularly to support your immune system. Vitamins should, and used to be, solely supplied from foods, but the quality of our soils, corporate farming, changing weather patterns, and the overuse of pesticides and herbicides have depleted the nutrients from our growing fields. Too many foods are highly processed and filled with toxic chemicals. Medications are highly toxic, and they are over prescribed, too.
Taking vitamin supplements daily helps prevent exposing our bodies to disease, and don’t just practice these health tips in the eleventh hour when a outbreak of a virus or bacteria or pollutant looms near; practice a vitamin regimen daily, for the rest of your life, to prevent exposure to ALL those nasty bugs that threaten your immune strength!
