Dietary Supplements - Attain Better Health
In the year 2005, more than 187 million consumers depended on
daily dietary supplements to provide the nutrients omitted from
the daily diet...nutrients that are needed to attain and
maintain optimum health.
Maintaining a strong immunity level built up through proper
nutrients can contribute greatly to keeping you out of the
doctors office. On the other hand, people with low immunity
levels tend to contract many illnesses and often suffer for a
longer duration than healthy individuals.
The DSEA (Dietary Supplement Education Alliance) found in a
recent study (11/05) that certain dietary supplements helped
seniors to live longer and to live more independent lives.
Further evidence of dietary supplement benefits are acknowledged
by the DSIB (Dietary Supplement Information Bureau) who also
reported that nutritional supplements help people live longer,
healthier lives.
Dietary supplements can also help reduce healthcare costs in the
billions of dollars by off-setting healthcare expenses through
better health attained and maintained by receiving proper
nutrients that are needed in the body.
The FDA (Food and Drug Administration) recently issued a health
claim for omega-3 fatty acids. Several other dietary supplements
are scheduled to be added to the list in the near future.
Qualified health claims for dietary supplements are now being
released to the public. As healthcare costs and health insurance
skyrocket, preventive self care seems to be more widely accepted
and practiced.
Many individuals can potentially benefit from the use of dietary
supplements. The following dietary supplements may be of value
to the immune system:
- Vitamin C provides antioxidant to cells, and may reduce the
risk of cardiovascular disease and some forms of cancer.
- Vitamin E may reduce free radical damage and cut the risk of
diabetes, and cancer.
- Vitamin A helps support mucous membranes, and the skin.
- Selenium may help protect against prostate cancer and is known
as an anti-aging nutrient.
- Coenzyme Q10 may help generate energy for metabolism.
- Omega-3 fatty acids benefit the heart and the nervous system.
People that use dietary supplements can save themselves money,
save the healthcare system money, and in general have a more
healthy and productive life.
Remember...You still have to eat healthy. Get as many vitamins,
minerals, amino acids, and fatty acids in your diet as is
possible. But, you can also consider taking a dietary supplement
to make-up for what is lacking. With soil depletion and other
environmental deficiencies so prevelent, taking dietary
supplements is a good way to make sure that you get all the
nutrition that you may need. See
