What Most People Think
Many people think: “If I eat fruits and veggies, I don’t need vitamins.”
And yes—food is super important. You should always try to eat healthy, whole foods.
But even with a good diet, you can still be low in key nutrients.
Why Healthy Eating Isn’t Always Enough
Here’s what most people don’t know:
🧑🌾 Fruits and veggies don’t have as many nutrients as they used to.
Modern farming and poor soil make our food less powerful than it was 50 years ago.
👶 Pregnancy and motherhood use up your nutrient stores fast.
Even if you eat well, your body may still be missing important vitamins like iron, magnesium, and B12.
💊 Some nutrients are hard to get from food alone.
For example, to get enough folate, you’d have to eat a lot of spinach every single day.
😩 Busy lives = skipped meals, stress, and fast food.
Most of us don’t eat perfectly all the time (and that’s OK!).
Signs You Might Be Missing Nutrients
Here are some clues your body might need more help:
- You feel tired all the time
- Your hair is thinning or falling out
- You get moody or anxious easily
- You have trouble sleeping
- You get sick a lot
These can all be signs your body needs more vitamins and minerals.
So, Do You Need Supplements?
Not everyone has to take them. But for many people—especially moms—it really helps.
Supplements can:
💪 Boost energy
🧠 Support mood and focus
🦴 Strengthen bones and muscles
🍼 Help with fertility, pregnancy, and recovery
The key is to pick quality supplements and use them to support a healthy lifestyle—not replace it.
Food is the foundation.
But supplements fill the gaps when life (or your body) needs more.
You don’t need to take everything. Just the right things, in the right amounts.
Think of it like this:
🥦 Food first.
💊 Smart supplements second.
❤️ You, feeling your best = the goal.
