An Introduction To Supplements
Firstly, lets just point out that Supplements are just that, they are meant to ‘supplement’, or ‘enhance’ your every day diet, to ‘add-on’ and help in some way. They are not meant to be taken to replace a healthy and balanced diet. They are not medicines and certainly not the ‘magic pill’ that people sometimes wish for.
At Aliment we always promote a healthy, balanced diet and lifestyle. Supplements should not be used as a replacement for this.
Supplements Are Used To Enhance Your Diet
Sometimes it is difficult to achieve everything you need or want from a nutrition point of view. This could be due to lifestyle and time constraints, so cooking a healthy nutritious meal from scratch every day when you arrive home from work, is often difficult, especially when you have already been to the gym and done the shopping just on your way home!
Or, even getting hold of high quality fresh food, can be a challenge. Many fruits and vegetables we eat, because of the way they are grown, do not contain the level of nutrients they used to.
Lets be realistic, in todays hectic lifestyle, eating well is not always easy!
