I am taking way too many supplements!

In today’s health-conscious world, the market is flooded with supplement brands and options and it may be difficult for individuals to choose the right supplement to use. Supplements should be used adequately as an adjunct to regular and balanced diet instead of a total replacement. Nutrient deficiency is also getting more and more common due to our changes in eating habits.

Many individuals started with one supplement aiming to fill nutritional gaps but find themselves slowly adding more and more supplements to use, leading to a complex regimen. Most individuals do not actually know what the supplement is for or whether it is suitable for them as they are often “recommended” by their friends and family. Due to the lack of awareness, some supplements may also be duplicated and may result in overdosing and excessive intake. With different brand names, individuals may not realize there is an overlap and unintended use. This can be a problem for selected supplements as overdosing may cause problems such as constipation, diarrhea or even blurred vision. Too much Vitamin A may harm your liver or result in nerve damage from excessive vitamin B6.

If there are multiple vitamin needs or wishes to boost general health, a multivitamin is a good choice to provide baseline needs to prevent from deficiency. Such convenient solution is favourable to those wanted to minimize risk of imbalances. LipoFast daily all-in-one is one of our favourite multivitamin product. With up to 14 vitamins and 6 mineral in one single tablet, it supports heart health, bones, eyes and maintain healthy nervous system.

Before making changes, it is important to discuss with a healthcare professional regarding your current regimen to ensure the switch is suitable for your needs. You should also focus on getting better and a more balanced diet alongside searching for a quality brand such as LipoFast that has clinical studies and data backup.
