Who takes food supplements?

Who needs food supplements product?
Food supplements are used by the majority of adults in the United States, UK, Canada in other countries. More women than men use them; use also increases with age and education. A series of surveys recently
showed that health professionals are just as likely as members of the general public to use food supplements regularly. Supplement use should be seen as one component of the search for a healthier lifestyle, including improvements in overall food habits and engaging in physical exercise. While much of the current research on nutrition and health focuses on the prevention of chronic disease, the primary reason most people use multivitamins and other nutritional supplements is to support overall wellness. 

Nutricode food supplements can be taken by a wide range of people, including those who are looking to improve their overall health and wellbeing, support specific health goals, or address nutritional deficiencies. 

Some common groups of people who take food supplements include:


  1. Athletes and fitness enthusiasts who are looking to support their performance and recovery.
  2. Elderly people who may have difficulty meeting their nutritional needs due to changes in appetite, digestion, or absorption.
  3. Pregnant or breastfeeding women who need to increase their intake of certain nutrients to support the growth and development of their babies.
  4. Vegetarians and vegans who may have difficulty obtaining certain nutrients from their diets.
  5. People with specific health conditions or who are undergoing medical treatments that can affect their nutritional status.
  6. Individuals with a history of nutrient deficiencies or who have been diagnosed with a nutrient deficiency.

It's important to note that food supplements should only be taken under the guidance of a healthcare provider, and should not be used as a replacement for a healthy diet or other medical treatments. If you are considering taking a food supplement, it's best to speak with your healthcare provider to determine if it is right for you and to ensure that you are taking it safely and effectively.

  1. Before taking supplements, thoroughly examine your diet and its nutritional content.
    That way, you can rule out what you absolutely do NOT need to ingest more of. My diet for example, is pretty low in magnesium.
    So I know that I need to compensate for that – either by adjusting my diet or taking (an appropriately proportioned) supplement.
