THE NATURAL ALTERNATIVE NUTRITION CENTER Do You Really Need A Multivitamin? While a clean, whole foods diet IS the foundation to health and wellness, supplementation is usually necessary to fill the nutritional gaps due to stressful lifestyles. Let’s be honest. The diet of the average American is SAD. It’s high in sugar and processed foods and caffeine to wind you up and alcohol to slow you down. I’m not here to judge, but just sayin’. Even if you eat a “mostly” healthy diet, there are many reasons to take a daily multivitamin. As we age, our nutritional needs increase as we have some difficulty absorbing nutrients and prescription drugs can increase nutritional deficiencies (such birth control pills depleting B Vitamins). Studies have demonstrated that taking a daily multivitamin can not only improve short term memory, but is also associated with increased energy. We all need that!! Do you need more reasons? According to several American and British studies, 33-50% of school children who took a multivitamin raised their non-verbal IQ scores as much as 25 points. Give your children a nutritional boost with high quality chewable multivitamins, soft gel multivitamins or whole food gummies (no sugars or dyes) that are all kid tested for taste! If you are already taking a multivitamin from a local box store, watch for these ingredients that honestly should not be consumed: FD&C Yellow No6, Aluminum Lake, hydrogenated palm oil, polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol, talc, dl alpha tocopheral acetate, etc. Myself and my customer service team at Natural Alternative know that these ingredients should not be in your supplement or your body! Experience better energy and mental clarity with an organic, whole food multivitamin from top companies such as Garden of Life (they have organic gummies for kids & adults which I love!), MegaFood, Whole Earth, and Standard Process. We also carry the popular brands Rainbow Light, Super Nutrition, Nature’s Plus and more! Complete your family’s healthy diet and lifestyle with a HIGH- QUALITY MULTIVITAMIN from The Natural Alternative, offering 20% off during the month of August just or you!!
