Food Supplements are Supplements to Food.
Generally we take nutrients from our normal regular diet for growth, maintenance of our body
and also for building immunity to fight diseases.
When for some reason like disease conditions, poor absorption, or nonavailability of required
nutrition from a regular normal diet, we are deprived of the required nutritions, then only we may
be advised to take Food Supplements to fill the nutritional gap to safeguard our wellbeing.
Some of the common Food Supplements are, Vit A, Vit B Complex, Vit C, Vit D, Iron, Calcium,
Protein Powder.
Besides, Probiotics, Omega 3 Fatty acid, Coenzyme Q, Multivitamins, Multiminerals are also
considered as Food Supplements.
In short, Food Supplements are nutrients taken by mouth to fill the nutritional gap, not obtained from regular normal diet
