I recently got a phone call that was rather shocking. A friend of mine had just died of a heart attack. “So what?” you might ask, “People die every day from heart attacks.” Well, that’s true but most of them aren’t my friend’s age. He was only 45.
A definition of cardiovascular disease doesn’t include an age. In fact, early signs of cardiovascular disease have been noted during surgeries performed on young soldiers wounded in battle. It has been estimated that plaque build-up was seen in the arteries of nearly 90% of the troops wounded in Vietnam. That’s pretty amazing when one considers that these soldiers were in their teens and early twenties.

Before you start taking dietary supplements it is always best to understand your specific health needs and if a dietary supplement might meet those needs. Do you need to take dietary supplements? The answer depends on your eating and lifestyle habits and some factors beyond your control, such as your age. The following factors will help you decide if a dietary supplement is necessary:
You have a poor diet: If you eat less than five total servings of fruits and vegetables daily, it may be difficult to get all of the vitamins and minerals your body needs. Also, if you eat only one or two times a day, you may be limiting the number and variety of servings you eat from the various food groups.

Many people feel that they do not need nutritional supplements to be healthy or that supplements are useless. Even though high quality supplements have been shown to improve overall health you don’t have to take them. If you don’t you want to take supplements just make sure that you follow these guidelines.
First, you need to provide your body with an adequate daily amount of high quality protein, containing all nine essential amino acids. This ensures your energy levels and muscle health. Then you need to stay away from all white flour products such as pasta, bagels, and different breads.
