Why Take Supplemental
Vitamins?
Why even bother taking vitamins at all? Everday, thousands are
discovering the benefits of vitamins. Even the American Medical
Association strongly recommends everybody take a basic daily multivitamin.
Explore why vitamins are so beneficial to daily life. (by Dr.
Obikoya)
Vitamin Deficiencies
Check the label on many "fortified" foods. You may see
some basic vitamins that have been added, but remember that processing,
heat and light destroys many vitamins. Plus, you need to keep
in mind that the actual level of vitamins you actually need in
many cases can far exceed the basic US RDA requirements. (by Dr.
Obikoya)

Why
Can't Your Body Just Make Vitamins?
Why do we have to find vitamins from other sources? Why can some
other animals manufacture their own vitamins? Humans are extraordinarily
complex and we have advanced dietary needs that are simply unmet
by today's diets. Quite simply, the typical human diet has "evolved"
far quicker than our bodies have been able to keep up. (by Dr.
Obikoya)

needs. (by Dr. Obikoya)

growing kids to have so their bodies have the raw materials needed

trained in skills related to the care of chronically ill patients,
including the management of geriatric syndromes, end-of-life care
and nutrition.
