Am age 47 and was told our body cannot extract all vitamines it needs from fruit and veggies. what type of supplement is recommended in this case?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The best: supplements are fresh vegetables and fruits from the garden free of preservatives and insecticides, eaten raw or slightly cooked. Also vitamin D pasteurized milk is the best source of vitamin D, though supplemented. Happy Veggies!
