Did you pop any pills this morning? I did. Despite an ultra-healthy breakfast of plums fresh from a friend’s tree plus organic porridge and milk, I still felt the need to down all of these:
They’re fairly run of the mill – a multi-vit and mineral, fish oils, Co Q-10 and ginseng. But are they necessary for someone like me who eats well?
Maybe it’s my imagination, but I think I’m more prone to colds and getting run down when I don’t take them, so they give me some peace of mind. As my health has been a bit shaky over the years, I have also (and very unscientifically) convinced myself that I need all the help I can get.
How about you? Do you rely on Mother Nature and get all you need from what’s on your plate or are you forcing down a big handful of supplements every day?
