    Nutritional Supplements

    Natures Healthbox offers a large selection of the finest natural & organic nutritional Supplements. It is important to understand that while these nutritional supplements are intended to provide Other Nutrients that may otherwise not be sufficiently consumed through Food, they should not be used in place of a main meal. Along side a relatively active lifestyle, a healthy diet should still provide us with the right amount of essential nutrients that our bodies require to work efficiently. However these supplements can be used alongside regular food and drinks, to correct nutritional deficiencies or preserve a sufficient absorption of certain nutrients.

    What are the benefits of nutritional supplements?

    Nutritional supplements are a way of supplementing your Body with Nutrients that may be lacking within your diet. Nutritional supplements can be taken in capsule, tablet, powder or liquid form and will most likely include a selection of either Vitamins & MineralsAmino Acids, Antioxidants, Botanicals, Herbs or micronutrients. More modern day forms of supplementation can be consumed through tasty shakes and Energy bars too, making nutritional supplements for athletes and those involved in vigorous physical activity an extremely popular and convenient choice.

    What supplements should a heavy drinker take?

    There is ongoing research in to the use of nutritional supplements for alcohol recovery, and to help manage type two diabetes. Regular, heavy drinking may cause irregular eating habits that can incite deficiencies in pyridoxine, Folic Acid, and Thiamin; the B Vitamin found in meat, grains and yeast. Being overweight increases the risk of developing diabetes, and recent studies suggest that those with the condition may benefit from supplements containing Chromium (found in many foods), Cinnamon, and antioxidant-rich Alpha-Lipoic Acid. At present however, there is not enough scientific evidence to truly indicate whether nutritional supplements can really help manage diabetes and alcoholism. With this in mind, it is always advised to seek medical consultation before considering the use of nutritional supplements for these conditions.
