What You Need to Know About Multivitamins
People who do not consume a healthful diet, who eliminate one or more food groups, who follow a vegan or vegetarian diet, or those have a poor appetite (possibly due to health complications) may not be receiving the 27 nutrients the body requires. "There's a lot of potential deficiencies with these lifestyles and we just want to make sure you're getting everything your body needs," she states.
As a general rule, the top essential nutrients for females include folic acid (for childbearing-age women who might become pregnant and pregnant women), calcium, and vitamin D. "Low bone density is something we see a lot, so ensuring that females, in particular, are getting an adequate amount of calcium and vitamin D will help for bone health," she explains.The Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention recommends that women of childbearing years take 0.4mg of folic acid, while the US Preventive Services Task Force states that dosage can climb to 0.8mg. Moretti suggests 1,000 mg a day of calcium-taken in separate doses since we only absorb about 500 mg of calcium at a time-and at least 1,000IU of vitamin D. Your doctor might recommend a higher dosage of vitamin D, but that would be something determined by a blood test. Whether you choose a capsule, tablet, powder, liquid, or chewable supplement is entirely your choice. Whatever is easy for someone to commit to will work! And there is no better time of day to take your supplement, either. If it's in the morning after eating breakfast or at night before going to bed, it does not matter-as long as you're getting it in. Keep in mind that supplements are monitored as a sub-category of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). They're regulated as a food, not like a drug, so the FDA does not have to look at these products before they hit the shelves. Be careful about choosing multivitamins that promote increased energy since they may contain stimulants, which could lead to numerous side effects, such as headaches, dizziness, increased heart rate, disturbed sleep patterns, and anxiety.

Entertainment This Week
THIS DAY IN HISTORY - August 23Fannie Farmer Opens Cooking School 1902 On this day in 1902, pioneering cookbook author Fannie Farmer, who changed the way Americans prepare food by advocating the use of standardized measurements in recipes, opens Miss Farmer’s School of Cookery in Boston. In addition to teaching women about cooking, Farmer later educated medical professionals about the importance of proper nutrition for the sick. Farmer was born March 23, 1857, and raised near Boston, Massachusetts. Her family believed in education for women and Farmer attended Medford High School; however, as a teenager she suffered a paralytic stroke that turned her into a homebound invalid for a period of years. As a result, she was unable to complete high school or attend college and her illness left her with a permanent limp. When she was in her early 30s, Farmer attended the Boston Cooking School. Founded in 1879, the school promoted a scientific approach to food preparation and trained women to become cooking teachers at a time when their employment opportunities were limited. Farmer graduated from the program in 1889 and in 1891 became the school’s principal. In 1896, she published her first cookbook, The Boston Cooking School Cookbook, which included a wide range of straightforward recipes along with information on cooking and sanitation techniques, household management and nutrition. Farmer’s book became a bestseller and revolutionized American cooking through its use of precise measurements, a novel culinary concept at the time. In 1902, Farmer left the Boston Cooking School and founded Miss Farmer’s School of Cookery. In addition to running her school, she traveled to speaking engagements around the U.S. and continued to write cookbooks. In 1904, she published Food and Cookery for the Sick and Convalescent, which provided food recommendations for specific diseases, nutritional information for children and information about the digestive system, among other topics. Farmer’s expertise in the areas of nutrition and illness led her to lecture at Harvard Medical School. Print Edition Copy E-mailed FREE To You
