Using MultiVitamins Regularly?! 

A human body needs vitamins and minerals every day. Women, Men and Children need a daily consumption of the required vitamins and minerals. Many brands of Multivitamins are available over the counter for everyone of us, Pregnant womem, newborns if necessary, nursing mothers and all. Even Couples who are preparing for a child conception are suggested to start taking prenatal multivitamins for a healthy child, and to women also after Child birth for easy recovery and during nursing stages. Some come as capsules, tablets, oral suspension drops for newborns, chewable gummies for young children etc....

Many of us have intolerance to a particular vitamin or mineral, it is important to keep observing our health patterns based on food consumptions and reactions that follow, if any and control the intake of that particular nutrient or avoid it if necessary. Consuming junk food is a culprit when it comes to food reactions, some processing units mix items without intention and it results in food reactions...it is important and recommended to read the nutrition chart and content label on the food pack before even tasting it.

Though it is necessary to consume the required amount of these nutrients, overdose is dangerous, it is strictly recommended not to consume even one capsule more than the prescribed amount. Every nutrient comes with side-effects of over consumed and hence, severe caution is advised by the Doctors and also on the conrent table on the vitamin bottles. There have been some arguments about the nutrition offered by capsules, some say they maynot be useful to the body, and some say they are perfect....discussions and studies happening still. Hence, it is safe to consume nutritional foods that are rich in these vitamins and minerals, by keeping a track of the daily requirement. Natural food is the best way to possess nutrients....even that method is called 'consuming multivitamins regularly'!! Are you?
