Taking supplements to better ones health have stirred up quite of few controversies over the past decades, but do they really help? Professor Lanham-New, Head of Nutritional Sciences at the University of Surrey explains the importance of how supplements are there to help when one does not have a chance to attain the type of vitamins needed throughout the day. Many more like Professor Lanham-New go on to explain which supplements can help one gain an edge to improving ones health.
Key Takeaways:
- But now Public Health England has said all Britons should consider taking a supplement of Vitamin D daily, particularly in winter.
- Everyone should be taking Omega 3 in particular, says Matt Baker, as we get a lot of Omega 6 and Omega 9 in food.
- “Vitamin C is provided by a wide range of fruit and vegetables, so unless directed by a practitioner who is in possession of specific tests that justify supplementation, it may not be one to take in high doses.”
“There is no point taking any other supplements unless your body can absorb them, says sports scientist and nutritionist Matt Baker of M1 Health in Manchester.”
