Taking Vitamins and Supplements
The last time I went to the doctor for a Checkup, she told me that I needed to start taking some Dietary supplements that had the Vitamins and Minerals that my body needed to stay healthy. I told her that I ate a Balanced diet, but she said that many people who generally ate well still didn’t get the Nutrients their bodies needed every day, and that’s why she recommends taking a Multivitamin. I remember taking Chewable vitamins when I was a kid, but as an adult, I never thought I needed it. It wasn’t because I had any signs of Deficiency, she said, but that it was Better to be safe than sorry.
I asked if it was possible To overdose on Over-the-counter multivitamins, and she said that it was highly unlikely if I followed the Recommended dosage. She said that most people’s bodies are able To tolerate and Absorb the multivitamins without any problems. As I get older, she said, it’s All the more important to take care of myself.
She’s right, of course. I shouldn’t Neglect my health. I just wonder if I can find some of those chewable vitamins in the shape of my favorite cartoon characters. I may be an adult, but I don’t always have to act like one!
