Several strategies exist to reduce nutritional shortfalls and help prevent deficiency diseases, optimize health and well-being, and lower the risk of diet-related conditions.
A nutritious diet that includes recommended servings from all the food groups helps to satisfy macronutrient and micronutrient needs. However, even well-designed eating patterns sometimes may fail to achieve suggested intakes for a variety of vitamins and nutrients.
The nutrients available in foods, naturally or through fortification, are beneficial to the body only when people consume them on a regular basis. In reality, few people are able to adhere to a nutritious diet plan either by choice or because of poor circumstances, increased nutrient needs, or both.1
Dietary Supplements
Dietary Supplements bridge nutrient gaps
Many health organizations, including the Endocrine Society2 and the World Health Organization3, recommend dietary supplements to help bridge nutrient gaps. Although multivitamins cannot bridge gaps in macronutrient intake, nearly all adults may benefit from regular consumption of a multivitamin supplement that is life-stage and gender-specific in partnership with a healthy eating plan4 to help guard against nutrient insufficiency.
Multiple studies5,6,7 have identified that multivitamin use increases nutrient status and decreases risk for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.
