How multivitamins help boost your health
For its healthy growth, the body needs nutrition. A daily balanced diet of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and fibre provides essential nutrients that the body and brain need for proper functioning. However, there are often nutritional gaps in our everyday diet for various reasons such as unhealthy eating habits, under-consumed nutrients, the nutritional quality of food and sickness among others. Over a period of time, these gaps can cause deficiencies of vitamins and minerals in the body leading to general weakness and other serious ailments. Multivitamins can plug this gap.
Multivitamins are nutritional supplements that contain different vitamins, and minerals that are mostly found in natural food sources. These help ensure the daily recommended intake of some under-consumed nutrients such as vitamins A, C, D, E and K, calcium, magnesium, dietary fibre, etc. Multivitamins are available in the form of capsules, tablets, liquids or injectable formulations.
The pandemic has, more than ever before, underlined the need to have a healthy body; hence bringing focus on the importance of multivitamins which fortify the immune system. Other than boosting the immune system, they provide energy, enhance brain functions, maintain a healthy heart and keep the skin and hair radiant.
The best pharmaceutical company in India, Scott Edil, lists some major health benefits of multivitamins:
Immunity
The presence of vitamins C, E and D in multivitamins helps boost the immune system. Vitamins C and E help in reducing allergic symptoms.
Heart
A vital organ of the human body, the heart also benefits from multivitamins. The multivitamins consist of vitamins B1, B2, B6, K1, magnesium and niacin which help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Eye
Vitamin A helps in maintaining eye health. Multivitamins, therefore, improve eyesight and help reduce any age-related eye problems like glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy etc. These vitamins and minerals also slow down macular degeneration (when the small central portion of the retina starts wearing down).
Muscles
Vitamins A, D, C and E play a vital role in muscle strength and recovery. The chemical reactions caused by free radicals in the body are sometimes responsible for muscle problems. The antioxidants in the multivitamins help control these free radicals and act on a cellular level. Multivitamins also help repair membranes. Vitamin D is essential to bone health as well.
Stress-reliever
Multivitamins can also reduce stress. The vitamin B family is known to boost energy levels and decrease stress and anxiety. Taking multivitamins daily improves brain functions and your mood.
Skin
Vitamins E and C help keep the skin supple by preventing dryness and retain the skin’s natural oil. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, which helps protect your cells from damage caused by free radicals. It also helps your body make collagen, which can help keep your skin stay firm and minimize the appearance of fine lines caused by sun damage.
Hair
Vitamins B, C, E and some minerals are needed for healthy hair. Multivitamins contain these and hence help in healthy hair growth and reduce hair fall as well.
