To
provide their bodies with
adequate amounts of all the
essential nutrients, adults
should follow a well-balanced,
proactive nutritional plan that
includes high-quality vitamin
and mineral supplementation.
Due to poor eating habits,
only a small percentage of the
population gets even the RDI
(Recommended Daily Intake)
levels of many important
nutrients. According to
government surveys, fewer
than one in five people
consume the recommended
daily servings of fruits and
vegetables. Nationwide
nutrition monitoring shows
that the average intake of
important minerals, including
calcium, magnesium, zinc, and
cooper are below levels
recommended for virtually
every age group and every
race / ethnicity designation.
(Third Report on Nutrition
Monitoring in the United
States. Life Sciences Research
Office. FASEB, 1995)
By
adding essential nutrients and
antioxidants to your daily diet,
you can experience an overall
sense of well-being. Many
begin with the Essentials plus
one or more supplements that
complements their specific
needs. Its a great way to
start down the road to true
health.
