Furthermore, megadoses of vitamins can be dangerous. There is no evidence that consumption of megavitamins improves exercise performance or has any beneficial effects on the aging process. Although regular foods are the preferred way of guaranteeing more dietary fiber, there are also a number of proprietary preparations available that all contain psyllium, a purified seed fiber product. These work in the same way as natural fiber, and they are frequently recommended by gastro-enterologists for their older patients who may be confronted with any of the conditions noted above. Common sense and economics dictate that nutritional salvation is unlikely to emerge from any pill bottle.
Vitamin pills are the last resort, leaving good food the first choice.
I have never yet met or tasted a vitamin as satisfying to eye or palate as a fruit, vegetable, meat, or grain. Could Be Waiting for You. Inc. All rights reserved.
