FAQs
Why do young adults need supplements?
Consuming a healthy diet and getting plenty of exercise is integral to your overall health and wellbeing. Unfortunately, busy lives mean many people don't get all the necessary nutrients. Our supplements are ideal if you:
Lack energy
Mental and physical stress can impact your energy. Vitamins can make you feel more alert and ready to take on the world. If you don't get enough nutrients from a balanced diet alone, supplements can support the conversion of food into energy.
Physical activity support
Most young adults are active and often engage in sports or physical activity. Eating lots of junk and convenience food means your body can't repair itself after exercise, but supplements such as protein and omega-3 can support muscle repair.
Bone health
Did you know that early adulthood is when your bones develop and grow? Low bone mineral density can cause osteoporosis and increase the risks of arthritis later in life. Supplements can support bone growth and prevent them from becoming brittle.
Immune system support
Young adults are exposed to various environments and stressors that can compromise the immune system. Getting all the vitamins and minerals your body needs can prevent infections from developing and speed up your recovery.
Cognitive function
Entering higher education or beginning your career can be stressful, especially when your social life is full of exciting activities. Young adults are at risk of cognitive issues, including brain fog and a lack of concentration. Vitamins can be beneficial for your mental health and cognitive function.
Can supplements replace a healthy diet?
No, supplements cannot replace a healthy diet. You should always consume a balanced diet that contains plenty of fruit, fibre, protein, healthy fats and leafy green vegetables.
The clue's in the name: supplements support your body in receiving adequate nutrition, but this doesn't mean you can eat junk food and lead a sedentary lifestyle.
Which supplements are most beneficial for young adults?
The most beneficial supplements for young adults include vitamin D (the sunshine vitamin), B-Complex, and vitamin C. Essential minerals include omega-3, iron, magnesium, and protein powders.
Remember, teenage boys and teenage girls might have different needs, and choosing the right supplements is vital.
For example, young women require enough iron due to menstrual cycles, while males require zinc to support testosterone production.
Are supplements safe for young people?
Yes, as long as you follow the instructions and don't exceed the recommended daily intake. Taking a higher dose could cause a range of side effects, including abdominal cramping and nausea. If you notice any symptoms, reduce your dose to see whether they stop.
