Vitamins Essential For A Healthy Life

A modern society of fast foods and fast lives has left many people lacking in a healthy well balanced diet.  It is for this reason that vitamin supplements have become a very popular addition to the weekly shopping list.

Most vitamin supplements are called multi vitamins and contain 100% of the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for the nutrients contained within them.  They usually contain 17 nutrients including protein, Vitamin A, D, E, C, thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, B6, folic acid, B12, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, zinc, iodine, and selenium.

Whilst many of us get sufficient vitamins from our diet there are those who find it difficult to maintain a nutritious balanced diet and those who just want to boost their diet.  Vitamin supplements are ideal for these people, as they are a quick and easy way to ensure you are getting the nutrients you need.

Pure Prescriptions vitamins deliver quality, potency and price in a vegetarian encapsulation. Why pay for binders, fillers and other processing aids?

Our V-Caps contain only the vitamins your body needs, in the forms your body can use. No magnesium stearate, no silicon dioxide, no gelatin. No “other ingredients,” Period.

That the best way for vitamins to be delivered the right way.

Many vitamins look good until you read the fine print. Here are some key points to watch out for:

1. Potency
   Don't be fooled by products that contain very low potencies of nutrients or specialty ingredients. Taking a multi vitamin with low potencies (called “window dressing”) means that you won't be getting the benefits that you have read about in scientific studies. Or else you will have to buy another product, and take more pills, to bring you up to getting the correct dose of vitamins.
   
2. Cheap Ingredients
   You may think you are getting a good deal when you buy a less expensive multi vitamin. However, the reason the product costs less may be because the raw materials are cheaper. This may be fine, or it may be because the form of the nutrient is less desirable.
   
   3) Nutrients in Natural Forms
   Almost everyone can benefit from supplementing with a high quality multi vitamin/mineral. Although it is not strictly “natural” to get our nutrition from a pill, we can at least take a supplement that uses the most natural forms of vitamins and  nutrients that are currently available.
