Contrary to popular opinion, you can indeed have far too much of a good thing. This is especially true when it comes to nutrition and your wellness. There are a lot of things you need to stay healthy, even more things that you should avoid and a vast number of things which you should have but only in moderation. That’s the key here, moderation. This should become a mantra in your life. You can eat whatever you want providing you do it in the right amounts. Only eat chocolate and you’ll die, but a couple of pieces of dark chocolate a day can do wonders for your complexion and keep your heart healthy.
Finding a balance in anything can be really hard to do. You’re going to be drawn to the things you like and repulsed by the things you dislike. It’s important that you manage this issue because the very best way for you to get everything you need to survive is through diet. Supplements aren’t always a safe alternative unless suggested by your doctors or a health professional.
Most supplemental pills involve obscene quantities of the vitamins or minerals that you need. Sometimes as much as 4000% of your daily recommended dose. Not only is this completely pointless, it’s also dangerous. Even the most seemingly benign and useful minerals like calcium can do tremendous damage if taken in those sorts of quantities. Research has shown that persistently overdosing on calcium can cause heart issues in later life. It’s much safer to try and get what you need from your diet and only from your diet. The fact is it’s not that hard to do!
We’ve got a huge array of articles dedicated to you getting everything you need to survive in terms of vitamins and minerals from your diet on Yourwellness.com. Have a look at some of those for further information.
