Multivitamins not only for athletes
Vitamins and minerals are essential components of vital processes in the human body. However, most of these micronutrients cannot be synthesised naturally to a sufficient extent and must be taken in through diet or supplements.
Multivitamin dietary supplements may also contain certain amino acids, healthful fats, probiotic cultures, or plant extracts that are designed to comprehensively care for human health.
When to take multivitamins?
Due to frequent dietary monotony or dietary restrictions, multivitamins have become a popular supplement that can help address multiple issues at once. However, in no case should they compensate for poor eating habits leading to deficiencies of health‑promoting substances.
In general, it is advisable to take multivitamins during periods of increased stress or strain on the immune system - in autumn, winter, flu season or post‑surgery recovery. Regular use of multivitamins is recommended for athletes, elderly people and individuals with dietary restrictions. For maximum effectiveness, multivitamins should be taken with meals at any time of the day.
Which multivitamin to choose?
As with food choices, it is important to read the ingredients when choosing a multivitamin. For vitamins, it is advisable to avoid unreasonably high recommended daily doses, as long‑term use (especially of fat‑soluble vitamins) could cause problems. For minerals, it is a good idea to look for organic forms which guarantee better absorption. You can choose from our supplements:
