When to Consider a Multivitamin
Patients should consume most of their vitamins and minerals from a balanced diet, with recommended servings from all of the food groups to satisfy macronutrient and micronutrient needs. However, some individuals may eat differently than expert dietary recommendations and even well-designed eating patterns sometimes may fail to achieve suggested intakes for a variety of vitamins and nutrients. A poor eating pattern leads to inadequacies in nutrient intake that often result in suboptimal health and wellness and may contribute to chronic illness.
Along with a nutritious eating plan, research shows that regular multivitamin/multimineral use helps patients consume the recommended amounts of vitamins and minerals necessary to prevent insufficiencies1 and support health.
Differences in Men and Women
Men and women need the same nutrients to support health and wellness, but their vitamin and mineral requirements are not always the same. Differences in vitamin and mineral needs are based on body composition – the amount of bone, muscle, fat, fluid, and other tissue in the human body – as well as variations in energy utilization between men and women.
Several health organizations and national nutrition boards across the globe, including the US National Academy of Sciences2, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations/ World Health Organization3, and the United Kingdom British Nutrition Foundation4 recognize that specific nutrient needs vary between men and woman and across the life span.
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 plan.5
