Can't I Just Take Handfuls of Multi-Vitamins?


Why don't I just pop multi-vitamins and apply many topical ingredients to cover everything my body and skin need?


Although it's possible to "just take handfuls" of multi-vitamins and apply multiple topical ingredients, most health professionals would agree it certainly isn't practical; the average person simply can't afford nor would they be able to easily swallow or apply all of the ingredients required to "cover all their bases." Also, there is increasing evidence that taking or applying too much of certain nutrients and active ingredients may even be harmful.


For example, you can get too much antioxidant protection. Damping down your metabolic system by excessive, unbalanced antioxidant intake can cause as many problems as not getting enough. Different free radicals require specific antioxidants - and there is no single antioxidant that addresses all the types of free radicals.


Some manufacturers and distributors would have us believe that a "cookie cutter" or "one-size-fits-all" approach is good enough. Don't believe it!


When your long-term health and performance is at stake, a personalized scientific approach is best!!




Take care of yourself!


Yours in health,


Rhonda
