The Health Benefits Of Multi Vitamins

The majority of people do not eat a sufficiently balanced diet to provide them with all of the vitamins that they require and this has led to a boom in the multi vitamin supplement industry. Multi vitamin supplements are available in a number of different forms, including tablets, gel capsules and even liquids.

Of course the most obvious benefit to taking multi vitamin supplements is convenience. It is far easier for a person to take one dose of a multi vitamin supplement that contains all of the necessary vitamins compared to taking each one individually.

This is especially the case for children as it can be difficult for them to take a large number of vitamin supplements but one dose of a multi vitamin supplement is far easier. Of course, a liquid multi vitamin supplement is the most suitable form for children but it is also beneficiate anyone who has difficulty taking supplements in traditional tablet form.

The increase in the availability of multi vitamin supplements has led to a great variety in the brands and also the actual content of the multi vitamin supplements. The names of some of the nutrients in these multi vitamin supplements can be a little bewildering and many people simply do not know which ones they require.

To make the decision simpler there are now a number of multi vitamin supplements created for specific people. For example, there are multi vitamin supplements that are designed for children. These multi vitamin supplements contain the specific nutrients that children need for them to grow and develop properly.

Pregnant women have unique nutrient requirements to ensure that their baby receives the necessary nutrients and there are multi vitamin supplements prepared for pregnant women. As we get older we also have different nutrient requirements and multi vitamin supplements for the elderly are a popular product.

It is important to consider the contents of any multi vitamin supplement before consuming too many. There are some vitamins that can be toxic if too much is absorbed and this can occur more easily with multi vitamin supplements as some of the content may be overlooked.

The labelling of the actual percentage of the recommended daily allowance for each vitamin in a multi vitamin supplement should be clearly labelled and must be assessed before a person takes them. Always seek professional medical advice before taking any multi vitamin supplement if thereis any doubt as to the benefits of the contents.

    In general, a good daily multivitamin/mineral supplement improves your overall bodily functioning and boosts both your physical and mental health and well-being. Sometimes supplementation with specific nutrients may be more appropriate in order to address any individual specific needs. For example, CoQ10 is especially helpful for those at risk for heart disease, and Vitamins C and E, taken in combination to help ward off Alzheimer’s disease. A multivitamin supplement usually contains the recommended daily dose of a variety of vitamins and other nutrients. Sometimes, multivitamin supplements are formulated for specific age groups, or individual conditions such as pregnancy. Multivitamins also are at their most efficient when they are in liquid form, as the body has been proven to absorb them five times more efficiently than multivitamins in pill form.

    Many people report a feeling of general well being when they are taking their daily multivitamins regularly. The individual vitamins and nutrients in a quality daily multivitamin dose delivers to you their specific benefits of each individual vitamin, plus you get the combined (synergistic) benefits of all of the ingredients working together. Vitamin E, for example, a fat-soluble antioxidant vitamin helps to neutralize potentially damaging free radicals in the body and it is particularly important for the protection of cell membranes as well as maintaining healthy skin, heart and circulation, nerves, muscles and red blood cells. Vitamin C on the other hand is water soluble, but like Vitamin E, it is an antioxidant. It helps white blood cells combat infection, is essential for wound healing, for the formation of collagen, for healthy skin, and for the formation of other important structural materials in bones, teeth and capillaries. It also helps with the absorption of iron from plant sources. Vitamins D, K, A, and other nutrients in a multivitamin supplement all have specific beneficial effects on our bodies ranging from minimizing the risks of heart problems to helping to ward off Alzeheimer’s disease.

    It is important to take your daily multivitamin in a liquid form regularly to enjoy these benefits to their fullest extent. Vigorous training, for example, increases the production of free radicals in the body. When involved in an exercise program, we should, therefore, increase the intake of antioxidants such as beta-carotene, vitamin C and vitamin E, and ensure you take adequate amounts of the proper vitamins and minerals required to maintain strong, healthy bones and joints such as calcium and iron. Also, older people over 55 years, convalescents, those who consume large amounts of alcohol, those with active, busy lives, people with colds, smokers, those exposed to excessive pollution, athletes and routine aspirin users need to take more daily and regular multivitamins.

    The typical multi-vitamins sold in stores statistically will shorten your life and the statistics show about 5% shorter life span than those that do not take multi-vitamins.

    The reason for this is that these so called vitamins are NOT vitamins at all, just synthetic chemical activators. Quantum physics experiments have shown us that synthetic vitamins damage the DNA of cells and cause premature death. This is due to the lack of good cellular resonance that is found in living tissue and once living tissue.

    Each cell emits light from the mitochondria in a very coherent fashion, but that is only from healthy cells. Cancer cells emit a very chaotic light and very little of it. Synthetic vitamins have a chaotic light emission as well and is very weak.

    Synthetic chemical activators that are used to make the multi-vitamins are from dead chemical sources. The "B" vitamins in them are made from the petroleum distillate, coal tar. All these chemicals cause an intial response from the body, but then within a very short time start damaging the DNA.

    When stress tapped using QRA testing, they always test very weak indicating a very bad cellular resonance and this causes the body to reject them and even become toxic to the body. All this marketing hype uses studies to prove a vitamin is good for you, but it doesn’t tell you the details of the study and the marketing types depend on you to not ask the right questions, but just believe that what they are offering will give you the same results as some study. All this disconnected data is driving a lot of misinformation and creating lots of problems for people in America today.

    Just look at the bottles ingredients you bought and see if it contains Magnesium Stearate or any stearic acid components at all.

    This is used by pill manufacturers to allow easy machine removal, but what is it doing for you as a nutrient. Over 5% of the total milligrams in the bottle (total all of them listed) and then multiply by .05. That is the total milligrams of trans fat from that chemical. It also is an immune suppressant and nutrient absorption inhibitor (up to 80%). Why do they insist on adding this to these products? Because health is NOT their primary concern for you. PROFIT is their motivation.

    good luck to you
