Are you getting all the minerals and vitamins your body needs?
For your fitness & wellness, we can’t downplay the importance of minerals & vitamins in one’s body. In a day your body needs at least 30 vitamins & minerals, and the best way to make sure your body has.
All it needs internally is to eat a balanced diet, packed with foods that boost the essential nutrients you need. Thanks to science, we can take these vitamins and minerals in a form of a pill as supplements.
There is a difference between the types of vitamins, for example, vitamins such as Folic Acid & Biotin are water-soluble, meaning they circulate easily in your body, release & build energy, make collagen as well as build proteins & cells, then there are fat-soluble vitamins such as vitamin K, A, E & D. These keep your skin & lungs healthy while building bones and effectively protecting your vision & body. You can get these vitamins at your nearest Dis-chem/Clicks ranging from R104.95 to R299.95
There also is a difference between minerals & vitamins - vitamins are organic while minerals are chemical properties. Minerals also differ, minerals such as chloride, calcium, sodium & potassium just to name a few make up major minerals that help with healthy bones, hair, skin & nails.
Trace minerals would be your Iron, copper, zinc & fluoride just to name a few that help with tooth decay, carrying oxygen in the blood, helps with blood clots, and taste and smell.
Antioxidants are a chemical property, not a nutritional property, improving poor vision, helps with delaying heart disease and cancer. Mineral supplements are currently retailing from R72.95 to R289 at Dis-Chem.
It’s pivotal to ensure you’re not exceeding safe levels of having the right amount of minerals and vitamins as well as antioxidants- too much of them can make you ill which will be defeating the purpose of making sure you have these in your body.
