It has become extremely important
to be fit and fine in today’s world where illness and diseases are rampant.
Today everything is fast-paced, chaotic and unpredictable; work has kept us so
busy that it rarely gives anybody time to concentrate on their health thus
creating problems which is hard to sort. People who live an active life where
work and social life exists, staying strong and being healthy is very necessary
to support the demands of such a life.
The diet which is necessary for a
human being to stay healthy is mentioned in a piece of paper and is known by
most of us but never followed by any one diligently. Hence what you miss in
these diets needs to be added to your system some way or the other and thus
multivitamins were created. They are a supplement which consists of vitamins,
dietary minerals and other nutritional elements. These are available in the
form of tablets, capsules, powders and liquids. According to UN a multivitamin
should consists of 3 or more vitamins or minerals but shouldn’t contain any
kind of hormones or drugs. Thus multivitamins are a type of food which fulfils
our dietary requirements which mostly is not fulfilled in a day-to-day basis.
The best multivitamin is one that
understands the needs of the person by delivery necessary vitamins and minerals
to the body and hence keeping them in optimal health. The only problem is to
find such a best multivitamin among the number of multivitamins which claims to
be the best multivitamin for us.
There is only One Golden Rule to find
the best multivitamin for kids, men and women and that is to educate yourself about
the ingredients. If we know what and how much is added in a multivitamin and we
are well educated in understanding what our body needs then we can choose the
best multivitamins among the lot. For example, there are a lot of multivitamin
supplements available in the market; some of them are cheap while others are
costly. Price should never be a criterion to distinguish which is good for our
health; still instead of wasting money always go through the ingredients.
Whenever a multivitamin is bought
the first thing to notice is whether they are free from chemicals or additives and
second what are the key ingredients present in it. Additives like sugar,
starch, gluten, silica and any artificial colours or flavours should be avoided.
On the other hand ingredients like Vitamins, Minerals, Adaptogens, Speciality
Nutrients, Flavonoids, Carotenoids, Antioxidants, etc. which is common for both
men and women should be selected. Beta-Sitosterol, Chrysin, Lycopene, Nettle
Root Extract, Saw Palmetto and Zing Acetate are all specific to men hence
helping men to decide accordingly. The best multivitamin would include them to
increase energy, reduce the odds of illness and rejuvenate the overall health
and well-being. This is just a gist of what multivitamins should contain, but
the best multivitamin will mix and match the ingredients for specific purposes.
Along with knowing about the
ingredients of the multivitamin brands it is also advised to be informed about
the pharmaceutical company which manufactures them and whether the
multivitamins are prepared according to the FDA guidelines. If possible ask the
local doctor about such multivitamins. A lot of studies are conducted when it
comes to multivitamins and keeping oneself educated about its progress and
advances will help to know what works and what doesn’t.
If proper research is done then
it possible to find multivitamins which might be more effective and less costly
compared to an expensive brand which just works okay.
