Taking Supplements

To get the best results from nutritional supplements it is important to consider a few things:

• what are you wanting to achieve? Is it more energy, better sleep, a calmer outlook or are you treating a specific health consultation? It’s helpful to understand the actions of specific nutrients and how to use them for the best results.
• What is the right type for you? And the right dose? Certain nutrients come in a variety of forms - for example magnesium - some magnesiums are best for muscle aches and pains, others are better for sleep and hormone support.
• Should the supplement be taken long term? Some supplements and nutrients are safe for long term use, others are best taken for a short time or until your symptoms improve.
• Are you taking prescription medication? Some vitamins and minerals will interact or interfere with prescription medications. Others can support your medications or help with the side effects you might experience.
