This is the one of the frequently asked questions during my health talks. Most people feel that if one is generally free from diseases and illnesses, one is likely taking some form of effective food supplement.
Our body does not need food supplement if we take care of our daily food intake.
Food supplement is merely food, nothing else. Please do not think that food supplement has special medicinal function. The labels on the food supplement do not state that they can be used to treat specific diseases and illnesses.
Modern men and women, including children, have the tendency to take one or more types of food supplement believing that they are good to the body. There is a possibility that high quality food supplement may assist in strengthening the body’s immune system.
What then is high quality food supplement? I do not have the answer.
Do not take anything one is doubtful or unsure of its source or processing. I hold to this guideline.
If you are taking food supplement to obtain vitamins and minerals, there are alternatives. Vitamins and minerals are required in very small proportion by the body each day.
Simply, you just take some fresh vegetables and fruits each day.
I do not take any food supplement. It is my personal choice.
