Supplements are NOT Necessary!

Although a daily vitamin that has been prescribed by your physician after careful testing and examination can be a beneficial part of your dietary routine, all the other hyped up energy aides, muscle-building concoctions, recovery antidotes, and a myriad of other “remedies” parts of the “health and wellness” industry wants you to buy into are really not necessary!

For the regular, every day person a sensible meal plan including fresh vegetables and fruits, whole grains, non-processed proteins and natural and organic foods is more than sufficient to promote good health.  This includes strong bones, optimum blood sugar levels, low cholesterol, ideal body weight, a healthy heart and more.

Here is why I DON’T USE SUPPLEMENTS:

1.  They are expensive

2.  Most are made with the intention of making money for the manufacturer, developer and/or distributor, not for actually helping people.

3.  I can get all the vitamins and minerals I need by eating whole, non-processed fruits, vegetables, proteins and grains.

4.  If it isn’t in as close to its original, natural state, how can I know it’s good for me?

5.  Chemically altered pills, capsules, powders, additives, etc. just don’t seem like a good idea.

6.  The “diet and supplement” industry is a multi-billion dollar industry preying on the uneducated, unmotivated public.

7.  I have practiced this method for over 50 years and have had no ill-effects from eating sensibly and being chemical free.  🙂

If you want to know more about proper nutrition, healthy lifestyle choices, lifelong activity and how to easily be strong, vibrant and chemical-free for optimum health, contact Julia Johnson, Certified Personal Trainer in AZ with Life In Motion Fitness at www.LifeInMotionFitness.com .
