Do you actually need a multivitamin? 🤔
For a lot of people… probably yes.
In a perfect world, we’d get everything we need from food. But the reality is that most people aren’t eating enough fruits, vegetables, or enough variety to consistently meet their nutrient needs. On top of that, the nutrient content of some foods today can vary due to farming practices, storage, and processing.
That’s why I think of a multivitamin as nutritional insurance.
Not a replacement for a healthy diet. Not a magic pill. Just a simple way to help fill in some of the nutritional gaps that can happen in real life.
If you do take one, choose a high-quality multivitamin that’s appropriate for your age and stage of life because your nutrient needs at 20 aren’t the same as they are during pregnancy, postpartum, or perimenopause.
Food always comes first. A multivitamin is there to support the foundation, not replace it. 🤍
