Supplements containing one or two key ingredients can be ideal in certain circumstances. For example, when you know your diet’s lacking in omega-3s or you’re after the health benefits that a higher dose of them can help deliver, you might choose to take a fish oil supplement. Or, if you’ve been advised to top your iron or vitamin D levels up, taking an iron-only formula or a vitamin-D supplement can work a treat.
But in other situations, choosing a multivitamin can be a smart move. Here’s a handful of reasons when it might be the right choice for you – and why.
Taking a multivitamin has been shown to increase the amount of key nutrients you get each day. While you should still strive to eat a healthy, well-balanced diet, for some, diet alone does not provide enough vitamins and minerals. For example people following a low-kilojoule or a strict vegetarian or vegan diet, might consider taking a multivitamin. Plus, it’s also worth remembering that in Australia, even among people without dietary restrictions, only one in two adults eat sufficient serves of fruit. And only seven per cent of us eat enough vegetables.
