Multivitamins and Nutrition

Nutritional supplements are just that, extras. This means they are not needed to achieve any result either in increased strength, health maintenance or improvement of performance.

Magazines and today’s Web pages are maintained by the leasing of advertising space, which are purchased by companies selling nutritional supplements, showing an article that shows the benefits of the supplement on the benefits of natural sources of lower cost and better assimilation.

However, reading these articles, many think of buying a bottle of the supplement in question would improve the performance or physical appearance if that were the case, thereby producing a placebo effect by giving the full quota of personal triumph for the supplement, not consider training or change in diet as part of the change, some customers became sure of this particular brand of supplements or raw material itself.

A clear example is the consumption of vitamin C, many items recommended daily 2gr something about this product, in order to use as an antioxidant.
I wonder if these “scientists” know how much vitamin “C” of good quality containing 100g of “broccoli.” Perhaps they think of an athlete who only eats chicken and rice (like the typical diet of magazines and fashion web pages) so they would not receive much of the nutrients essential for mitochondrial maintenance of the cell, giving the pattern for handling of the diet in order to sell more supplements and maintain their publications with enough sponsors to stay.
Obviously there are many followers of these diets, low in vegetables and rich in supplements, but imagine this: Vitamin “C” is followed by the liver and passes through the kidneys so that the excesses are removed, these organs are obliged to work twice in order to eliminate the excesses of vitamin C ingested by a reader confused by these items, of course intake will not die or suffer discomfort because they are scientifically proven to hypervitaminosis of vitamin “C” does not side effects or unwanted effects, but if the liver of the person consuming megadoses of supplements or drugs, could develop a drug-induced hepatitis, this does not want to create paranoia, I just want to make clear that food intake has no contraindications.
Now in order that the reader not want to take supplements and want to really change their lifestyle for the better and not just for a season and a healthy fitness seems not to be, I will leave this article as much food with micronutrients , whether the case of vitamins and minerals in order to include them in your diet and gradually change some habits.
