As the world is fast changing with technological advances including the health and medical facilities or amenities, the feedbacks of an individual are also altered. People would do anything to improve their way of life and some may develop habits that will help them achieve this ease that they have been dreaming about. Habits that provide a higher well-being and health awareness that takes less effort and with minimal professional assistance.

People tends to have a busier lifestyle nowadays, so instead of having regular check ups, they will rely on supplements. A nutrition supplement means "a group of nutrients" which consists of vitamins and minerals, carbohydrates, proteins, healthy fats and oils. Taking supplements does not mean that it can substitute the regular nutrition that you get from food; they merely add just a little help in your system. The busy schedules are never cut down into shorter list in your organizers but the nutrition that you take is the one that often make the cut to the low priority. A great buy for your busy days are these four basic nutritional supplements, Vit C, iron, calcium and folate.

1. Vitamin C aids in the healing process of wounds especially for those who have undergone specific surgery, an extra pop of this vitamin is at its best use. Heavy and chain smokers are advised to take at least an additional 100 mg of this vitamin daily although one fallacy around the medical world is it can deflect a cold. It can be very useful though to alleviate discomforts of severe colds. But if you're into natural supplement, you can take as much amount of vitamin C in a glass full of orange juice, melon or green pepper.

2. Iron is usually taken by person's who feels tired all the time and appears pale, but that's your idea of the condition of the supplement. In fact, what we don't realize that before taking iron supplements, you should have your blood tested firsthand to know how badly you need it. Take iron with full stomach conversely drinking juices will increase the absorption without upsetting your gastrointestinal tract. Do not take calcium and iron together since calcium interferes with the absorption of iron.

3. Calcium is naturally good for the bones and also strengthens the teeth. It helps especially the women and some men fight the causes of aging and especially osteoporosis and other bone fractures. It is better absorbed in the bloodstream with the help of Vitamin D and lactose and protein for absorption in the intestine. Choose a dairy product with included Vitamin D fortified on its label.

4. How important is folate to your body system? It is as important as giving your heart the love it needs. Researches show that folate can help prevent heart disease and some forms of depression. It can be found in foods like dried beans, fortified cereals, and juices and in dark green leafy vegetables. It is highly recommended to pregnant moms to get an adequate amount of folate to prevent birth defects.

You practically don't need to take a general supplement of vitamins and minerals, if your eating habits are varied daily or skipping meals purposely. Remember that nobody have a perfect eating habits or a perfect menu that they follow regularly. Taking notice of your health is but the best supplement that you can invest in.
