Q & A On Vitamins And Minerals
from: Gregg HallQ- What about vitamin and minerals. Do we get enough from our
food or do we actually need to supplement?
A- It depends on where you are coming from and what culture.
Again if you get variety in your diet there is probably no need
for vitamin and mineral supplement.
Most people get enough variety in their diet so they don't need
a supplement but there are exceptions to that rule. If you are
pregnant or lactating or if there is some other need for
vitamins and minerals then it is probably a good idea. You kind
of need to go off your doctors recommendations.
Q- Would age be a factor?
A- Yes, there are quite a few areas where you may need a
supplement. You know supplements can be expensive. Some may be
dangerous. It depends on the kind of vitamins and minerals you
are talking about. You know they break down into water soluble
and fat-soluble and there are the vitamins they call oil
soluble. There are four of them, vitamins A, D, E, and K.
Typically there is more concern with the oil soluble vitamins
because they are not excreted from your body, unlike the water
soluble vitamins like B and C, the excess will get flushed but
with the oil soluble vitamins the excess is retained in your
body.
That can get to be a problem if you are for some strange reason
taking excessive amounts of let's say vitamin D for example. I
think the recommendation is 400 international units. Well there
have been people that have taken many multiples of that like
25,000 international units of that and there are health
consequences for doing that.
It comes down to someone not having a balanced background and
information to fall back on and they just do it because they are
nave. You know it may start out as a doubling of the
recommended daily allowance and they think, "well I'm not seeing
any results so I will triple it." Some of the vitamin companies
that manufacture these are no help because they will introduce
products in the marketplace and where one capsule will deliver a
mega dose of the product it can be confusing to people. You know
if one is safe to take then why are they marketing those
products in that amount in the first place?
It just gets to be like a power struggle even with the
manufacturers of those products. People will think that if a
little bit in a tablet is good then more will be better and we
go back to that philosophy well how much can we get for our
dollar then we start to think in terms of mega dose amounts.
I don't understand that whole thought process. There are very
well documented cases of overdoses and the consequences of
taking too much of one vitamin and minerals in the medical
journals. It isn't a mystery it is out there and you just have
to be careful. Most supplements if you will look on the labels
will tell you how much to take.
