Should I Be Taking Vitamins This Summer?


Many believe that this is not necessary, because the abundance of sun, vegetables and fruits nullifies the danger of hypovitaminosis. By the way, as sad as it is, but most residents of our country, if at all, recall vitamins, only in winter during colds and early spring, when (in their opinion) the risk of avitaminosis increases. But even those who take more thoughtful care of their health and proper nutrition, and take vitamins regularly, believe that for the summer it is possible to take a break, so to speak "give the body a rest."

This is not necessarily true. Research showed that it turns out that the number of fruit and vegetables consumed in the summer compared to winter only increases by 1-2, less often by 2-3 portions per day. At the same time, the consumption of other products is slightly reduced: meat and fish, cereals, bread and legumes, especially in hot times. This means to accommodate to environmental changes in the summer we must also adjust our supplement’s intake to maintain the proper number of nutarians to keep your body feeling happy!


Those who go tanning in the sun, or, conversely, stay in the major cities for the summer, need to take additional care of the antioxidant protection of the body. Vitamin C consumed in physiological dosages practically does not accumulate in the body, so these tablets can be used not only as an independent product but also in combination with Meta-Labs Viral Immune Booster.


Researchers have found that Vitamin C is one of the safest and most effective nutrients on the market. It plays an important role in the synthesis of collagen, which may help prevent signs of aging. Meta-Labs Vitamin C may help restore damaged skin, as well as, prevent and repair dry skin.

The coronavirus pandemic is not over yet, which means it is essential for all of us to be taking supplement which will help boost and maintain our immunity. This is why Meta-Labs Viral Immune Booster is important to be taken daily. This multivitamin contains all-natural, essential herbs needed to keep you and your family feeling good and energized during this pandemic.


Vitamin D, Calcium, Magnesium

Do not forget that summer is a period when the body actively produces Vitamin D: it is produced mainly in skin cells under the influence of sunlight. Vitamin D has many functions, but one of the most important is the regulation of calcium metabolism and the strengthening of bone tissue. Vitamin D is essentially important to African-American population, due to much high rates of mineral deficiency detected then in any other race. But for vitamin D to work in the desired direction, enough calcium must be supplied with food, the need for which is increased in summer.

Coral Calcium by Meta-Labs and Serenity (Magnesium Supplement) by Meta-Labs may help make up for the calcium deficiency in the body.

The presence of magnesium (in the best quantitative ratio with calcium) optimizes mineral metabolism and promotes better incorporation of calcium into bone tissue. Calcium containing foods are especially important for children and adolescents - since summer is a period of active bone growth, for expectant mothers, as well as for women in the paraclimactic period for the prevention of osteoporosis.


Omega-3

I would like to mention another product - the Omega-3 complex. In fact, omega - 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids do not belong to vitamins (although they were previously called vitamin F), but are as essential micronutrients for the body as vitamins.


Majority of the population is deficient in polyunsaturated fatty acids, and in the summer, it intensifies due to seasonal dietary changes (consumption of marine fish is declining, with the exception of coastal regions). Particular attention should be paid to the reception of Omega-3 to people of mature and older age, since one of the important biological functions of polyunsaturated fatty acids is protection against atherosclerotic changes.

Meta-Labs Salmon Oil is rich in Omega-3 which may improve eye health, brain health, and improve risk factors of heart disease.

Conclusion

The following conclusions can be drawn about vitamins:

- The summertime is not a time you should stop additional intake of micronutrients.

- Some micronutrient intake should increase due to climatic and physiological changes that occur due to seasonal dietary changes.

- Additional intake of micronutrients in forms of supplements can be beneficial to everyone, but specifically people who change climates, stay in the unfavorable ecological environment of cities in summer, children and adolescents, women during pregnancy, pre-and post-menopause, people of mature and older age.
