Multivitamin tablets are good. They can help plug the hole in our diets and most of us have at least one. Not that we all eat badly but simply that we don’t have time to constantly eat the full array of vitamins and minerals that we need to survive. It’s very easy to pop a ready meal in the microwave and not bother to properly cook and frankly, we’re all far too busy to cook a meal every night anyway. So essentially a multivitamin can help to keep balance in your diet and your body when you don’t have time to ensure that balance yourself.
It’s important to remember that a multivitamin is not a substitute for a healthy meal but rather a supplement to it. It’s a great way of enhancing but it should be used instead of. A lot of people make this mistake and think that because you’re popping a multivitamin tablet you can pig out and get all you need to survive anyway. You can’t. The fact is that the body is complicated and if you’re not taking in the right foods then it simply won’t be able to break down and make use of the tablet at all. You’ll be taking it for no reason.
If you’re eating a good meal at the end of every day then make sure you pop a tablet after you’ve eaten. This is the optimal time to ensure that you’re getting the most out of it as it’ll be broken down with the food you’ve just eaten and be release more effectively into your body. You don’t have to have cooked the meal yourself and you don’t have to have slaved over the stove for hours, it just needs to be balanced and not terrible for you. It’s always best to shoot for healthier eating, that way if you don’t quite make it at least you’re almost there! In that case the multivitamin might be just what you need to make your lifestyle a healthy one!
