Vitamins and Minerals

Vitamins and minerals are essential to our bodies. Many foods that we eat on a daily basis unfortunately do not contain enough of these nutrients for our body’s needs. This can be due to the processing and preparation of the food or the simple fact that some of the foods we consume are of poor nutritional value. A poor intake of vitamins and minerals can lead to numerous diseases and deficiencies including rickets and scurvy. Our Red Bank nutritionists will show you how to consume the proper amount of vitamins and minerals through a healthy daily diet and additional supplements when required. While vitamins and minerals are imperative to our body, many experts believe that exercise and additional healthy practices need to be accompanied for this set of nutrients to be utilized by our bodies to full capacity.
