Taken from an article in 'Prevention' email alerts. I believe it is important to take supplements daily, because we realistically do not get all the needed vitamins and minerals on a daily basis. Here are some simple rules to follow and I added the link if you want more information. Also always check with your doctor if you have any health issues.
Supplements 1,2,3
Think taking supplements is complicated? It doesn't have to be. Follow these simple guidelines and you can be confident that your nutritional needs are covered.
1. Take a moderate-dose multiple vitamin and mineral supplement that supplies approximately 100% of the daily value for a wide range of nutrients.
2. If you don't consume at least three servings of calcium-rich foods daily (such as fat-free milk and yogurt) and lots of magnesium-rich whole grains, wheat germ, soy products, and legumes, consider supplementing your multi with extra calcium and magnesium. (You may also want to supplement with omega-3 fats if your diet is not rich in fish.)
3. You might want to customize this basic program with a few other supplements to meet your personal needs, such as black cohosh if you're battling menopause symptoms or glucosamine for arthritis.
