Why they're called SUPPLEMENTS, not REPLACEMENTS.

Naturally, the best place to get your nutrients is through your diet.  Eat plenty of vegetables and fruits.  Supplements are just that.  They don't and can't take the place of the real thing.  Every time you eat raw broccoli you get a variety of supplements.

What really makes the difference is the combination of all the substances within that vegetable or piece of fruit.

If you are like most people today, your diet is lousy as far as fruits and vegetables and you need the supplements.  Take care that you try to combine some of them for the maximum effect.  It is not a perfect world in a bottle of supplements not even in that multi vitamin. 

Did you know that B12 supplements do not last for 24 hours and that is why you are told to take that supplement twice a day.  Read the labels and follow the directions.  If the label says twice a day or 3 times a day or with food or without food ----- there is a reason and that reason is the ability of your body to utilize that supplement.

There are some supplements that you should be taking on a regular basis. Hey, this is a growing list and by no means complete.  Do you have a favorite item?  Let me know and I will include it.
