I grew up watching my parents take multiple vitamins and supplements, I was also given Vitamin C (for overall health) Vitamin B12 and B6..which help the body to function properly by aiding with digestion, cell growth, muscle development and the formation of regular sleep patterns. I take those same vitamins but have also added chromium..You know how you might be at work and have a lack of energy? Dont go buy 5 hour energy thats a joke (temporary fix) go to your local supermarket our Vitamin Shoppe and buy supplements. You can buy individual vitamins or take a mens or womens daily vitamin.
***Always take after a meal, do not overdose one a day is sufficient***
Vitamins are essential components of your body that it cannot make. You have to get them from nutrition. As we have seen in "Nature for Profit" our degraded food no longer contains sufficient vitamins for optimal health, and our needs for the nutrients are multiplied by the pollutants that prevade our food, water, and air. To meet these needs, the majority of Americans now take supplements, which are simply the vitamin components of our food, concentrated and made into pills and powders.
But many folk still see vitamins as some sort of drug, like asprin. They expect an immediate lift or an immediate reduction in pain or symptoms, and are disappointed when it usually doesnt happen. Let's get it straight. Vitamins are not stimulants, nor are they drugs for symptomatic relief. They are nutrients, and the business of nutrients is to GROW a body better!
Unlike drugs, whose fast and usually toxic action befits their intended use in crisis intervention, nutrients have few immediate effects that you can feel. Mostly they have to wait on nature for deficient and defective cells to die off, and be replaced by new and better cells that grow from the improved nutrient mix.
Renewal is slow and steady. Your blood cells take three months for complete renewal. Many cells of your muscles and organs take six months. The matrix of your bones and teeth takes about a year. Thats what improved nutrition through supplementation is all about. You have to wait until the nutrients are built into your structure for their real benefits to show.
In closing, the neglected house plant is a good analogy. If you start giving a plant a little TLC, seaweed fertilizer, and a regular watering, the exsisting leaves and stems will perk up a bit. But to see the real benefit of your care, you have to wait as much as six months. You have to be patient until the old leaves and stems die off, and new ones sprout and flourish, with an improved cellular structure grown from the better nourishment.
