Why do we need vitamins and supplements?

Vitamins and minerals are very small nutrients that serve a specific purpose and benefit the body in a unique way. Vitamin and mineral deficiency can impair the body’s ability to heal and protect itself. Taking vitamins does not make up for an unhealthy diet, and vitamins are an insufficient substitute for nutrients from fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. However, a general multivitamin and mineral supplement can be a good safeguard against periodic vitamin shortfalls in your diet. Vitamin and mineral supplements can help prevent deficiencies that can contribute to chronic conditions. Numerous studies have shown the health benefits and effectiveness of supplementing missing nutrients in the diet.
