#BeVitWise with Lifeplan
Over the last few months, we have seen an unprecedented demand for our vitamins and mineral supplements largely driven by recent global events. Lifeplan Nutritionist Deepali Shah Katira says “It’s understandable that during such an uncertain and worrying time where things have felt completely out of control, people turned naturally to vitamins and minerals because it was something proactive that they could do that was in their control.
Demand for products has continued and it seems clear to us now that supplements are set to be part of everyday life for the foreseeable future.”
So here at Lifeplan we want to be proactive too and help you to understand more about vitamins and mineral supplements through our new campaign #BeVitWise.
There are so many different supplements on the market but it’s not always easy to know exactly what you need to take. What will work best for me? Which one should I take? Do I even need to take a supplement? Could a simple diet change make a difference instead of taking a supplement? Am I taking too much / too little? What if I’m taking the wrong vitamins? What does NRV mean? And so on. We know how difficult it can be to navigate your way through the world of vitamins and minerals and so through #BeVitWise we will help you to understand everything you need to know.
This will be an ongoing effort from us with the help of Deepali our Nutritionist. “With such easy access to various social media platforms now, there is a lot of misinformation out there and you could be taking supplements that could be doing you more harm than good. We want to give you the best and make you feel great from within. It starts with a balance of clean supplements which are right for you according to your personal goals, expert advice, good food sources to include as part of a balanced diet and living a healthier lifestyle. It can be quite overwhelming to simply pick a vitamin D supplement for example, so we want to make it easier for you to pick the one that is suitable for you, one that absorbs well and giving you the right dosage. It all comes down to having a holistic approach to live a healthy and happy life” says Deepali.
