Vitamins is a good idea
It is something that can be considered quite obvious. But are most people taking supplements to make sure they get all the vitamins the body needs?
Like we spoke about on the latest episode of The Fit Gamer Podcast. During the winter when it is cold and dark we don't get the same amount of vitamin D. And there is something referred to as "winter depression" or something. It is about as scientific as the happy feelings people have when the spring is coming.
I am expecting a delivery of some nice vitamins any day now. And especially since I have been starting to get bad colds every now and then when the weather turns cold it is a must-have for me.
In Sweden at least, almost any grocery store is selling some kind of vitamin labeled to suit different persons. Some boxes says women 50+ and such. That is actually great because it helps the general public to purchase vitamins. They don't feel that they have to read and see if it is the vitamins they want. Many people would just have said, "Naaah too much work" and just skipped the vitamins.
In times where the amount of calories we need is easily covered due to all the fat and glucos in our foods, it is not certain that we get enough of the vitamins and minerals in our regular diet.
When we for example filter away bad shit in our drinking water like medicines and detergents, certain minerals disappear as well.
Don't be one of them saying vitamins is for weak people. It might help you stay healthy, get better workout results and avoid the feelings of depression during the darker season.
