Diet, sleep, and exercise. It’s what we talk about all the time, as they are the three pillars of physical health. What affects any of those physically will also affect you mentally. This is where mind and body intersect.
What you put into your body, your diet, has a significant impact on how well your body systems are functioning. These systems are many, but they include brain health, gut health, and balancing your hormones.
It takes your mind, body, and soul working together to truly thrive. That is why taking care of your physical health is so important in supporting your mental health. Nutrient supplements are an effective way to aid in that process.
The current diet in western culture is not as rich as it once was in supplying the nutrients necessary to support the many needs of your body. Supplementing your diet with specific vitamins and minerals can resolve deficiencies and help your body function the way it was made to.
What are Supplements?
Nutrient supplements are vitamins, minerals, and herbs/botanicals, amino acids, and microbials (probiotics) that have been found to have specific effects on the general population. Some of the most common supplements are vitamins B, C, and D, as well as magnesium, zinc, and niacin.
Supplements can have a significant impact on physical and mental health. Did you know that while B Vitamins (there are several of them) aid in red blood cell production and digestion, the lack of enough B-12 and B-6 decreases chemical production in the brain, and has been linked to depression?
And did you know that while Vitamin D is great for bone health and immune system function, it also helps regulate mood?
The Role of Supplements
Supplements help make up the difference between what your body needs and what it gets from the things you put in it. They can be used to maintain or improve overall health, but are not a replacement for a healthy regular diet.
Supplements can also be used to correct nutrient deficiencies and ensure that you get the micronutrients your body needs each day.
Now, the best way to make sure you’re getting enough of these vital nutrients is to eat a healthy diet that includes them. But for those who can’t, won’t, or don’t, we have a solution for you.
