NUTRITION is important for all life stages; from childhood through late adulthood. However, as you age, your nutritional needs change. This is especially true if you are on medications or at risk of nutrition-related diseases such as heart disease, osteoporosis and diabetes that may affect appetite and requirements for vitamins and minerals.
Good nutrition is life’s best insurance to maintain good health. But in today’s world, it is hard to convince people that eating a well-balanced meal does the trick. Let’s face it, the food we eat no longer contains the nutrients that they are supposed to deliver due to over-cooking, over-storage and freezing. Regularly dinning out and poor eating and lifestyle habits further impede the proper intake of nutrients. This is where supplementation plays a vital role in replenishing a broad range of important nutrients that is depleted or missing from our diet.
