2. Are you taking any supplements? They might be ineffective
As you already know, if you go to see a doctor, no matter if they are a cardiologist or your primary care physician, you will be prescribed some supplements. This is a rule already.
They insist that you should buy them because they are very good for your health. And many times, these supplements that they strongly recommend are also sold in their offices.
Indeed, some supplements are recommended and you should take them, but on the other hand, many others are ineffective. The best approach is to get all the nutrients you need from food. That’s why a healthy and balanced diet is so important.
Now, two of the most important supplements that you should take and that are actually beneficial for you are fish oil and vitamin D. More than 80% of Americans are vitamin D deficient.
