Vitamins and Minerals, alongside Amino and Fatty Acids, are nutrients essential to the body for metabolic reactions, and must be included into the diet in order to maintain a healthy, balanced lifestyle.

In theory, maintaining a balance of vitamins and minerals in your diet is not difficult, as there are many different sources for each of the vitamins and minerals you need. However, it is likely that your typical diet is deficient in at least a few vitamins or minerals, and this can lead to various unwanted symptoms and could ultimately cause serious illness or disease. For example, a deficiency in Vitamin B9 (also known as Folic Acid) can cause mood disorders and anemia, and a deficiency whilst pregnant has been linked to birth defects.

Taking supplements is by far the most convenient way to ensure that you get your recommended amount of each essential vitamin and mineral. Our Balanced B50 Veg Caps provide you with an easy way to top-up on essential B and C vitamins that work together to maintain a healthy immune system. Consider using Bio-Calcium + D3 +K to maintain a healthy level of calcium and magnesium, minerals essential for healthy teeth and bones.
