When do you need nutritional supplements?

If you take a varied, healthy and nutritious diet, including, lots of fibers, fruits and vegetables (especially colored ones), enough protein, carbohydrate, and do not have any chronic disease or other medical problems, most nutritional specialists will be of the opinion you do not need to supplement your diet with nutritional supplements. However, modern life is hectic with most families having both husband and wife working, most likely with long hours. They may have to make do with fast food or other less nutritious food lacking in fibers, key vitamins and minerals. This may result in chronic diseases and accelerated aging.

There are also claims that although Americans appear to be well fed, many studies showed they don't get enough of vitamins and minerals. Many health conscious people take nutritional supplements as a precaution even if they are taking a reasonably nutritious and varied diet.

However, nutrition supplements can be expensive and the choices are wide, bordering on being bewildering. It is wise to shop around and the easiest, most convenient and most effective way is using a great tool that our forefathers never had, that is the Internet.
