In order to stay healthy, what is a good basic supplement program?
Each person is unique, so each person’s nutritional needs would also be unique. A prudent course of action to stay healthy would begin with eating a healthy diet. This means to avoid highly processed foods (candies, snack foods, convenience foods) or foods high in refined sugar or flour, as these tend to have low levels of important vitamins and minerals. A high quality multiple vitamin/mineral supplement is helpful to “fill in the gaps” in the diet. While other nutrients also may be helpful, it is important to remember your individuality and discuss the specific additional nutrients you might need with your nutritionally oriented healthcare practitioner.
