Many people are aware that vitamins are a big part of keeping your immune system working properly. From vitamin C to B6, they all play some kind of role in keeping your body disease free.
Many people get these vitamins from food, but others opt to get them from pills and gummies. Instead of taking a bunch of individual pills for the various vitamins you need, many have chosen to take one multivitamin pill, which contains all kinds of different vitamins in just one tablet.
Many researchers say that as long as you have a fairly healthy diet, you should be getting enough of most of your vitamins anyway. If you have a poor diet, it’s probably best to actually just fix that instead of trying to supplement it with multivitamins.
Fixing your diet will help you lose weight and have a healthier heart, something that multivitamins will not do. While vitamins do certainly have their role, supplemented vitamins may not truly boost your immune system as well as natural methods, like getting them from fruit.
These researchers claim that you should be practicing a variety of other immune system hygiene in order to keep the viruses away in the first place. Overall, the consensus seems to be that multivitamins certainly won’t hurt you, but you can’t exactly expect to take them and have your immune system be impenetrable.
If you do take them and you have some sort of vitamin deficiency, then they will help keep your immune system operating well, but you should also be combining them with other methods of keeping yourself healthy, like proper hygiene and an improved nutritional plan.
This entire concept still requires more research to be done on the matter, as many scientists are still unsure of how exactly everything interacts with one another on such a microscopic scale.
They may be more effective than we currently know, so taking them is not a bad idea. You just can’t expect them to make you impervious to diseases. Strike a balance between good habits and supplementing whatever your body is lacking.
You can find out what’s lacking by getting a blood panel drawn. If you’re low in certain vitamins, then you can either start taking a multi vitamin or supplement that one individual element instead. Ask your doctor for the most effective multi vitamin for you, depending on your gender and age, as well as your specific needs for supplementation in a certain area.
