Supplements To Consider Taking
Vitamins and supplements can be useful as they can potentially provide our body with the missing nutrients it needs to function smoothly. Ideally, our diets should provide us with the necessary nutrients for a healthy body and mind, but this is not the case for many of us – and with such a wide range of supplement options on the market, it can be confusing to know what supplements to consider taking.
To help you decide, we have compiled a list of the most recommended supplements by healthcare providers, that almost everyone can take to improve their health.
Magnesium Supplements
A not-so-fun fact is that about 80% of all adults suffer from a magnesium deficiency. Magnesium is critical for so many functions within the body, including nerve transmission, muscle contraction, bone and cell production, energy production, and much more.
By taking a daily magnesium supplement you can help prevent a variety of conditions such as migraines, headaches, asthma muscle cramping, heart disease, and osteoporosis, and it can even help to calm your nerves and reduce anxiety.

Vitamin D Supplements
One great way to avoid a cold is by taking a daily dose of vitamin D3. In an ideal world, we would get enough vitamin D from sun exposure, but living in Ireland can make this a little difficult, making vitamin D supplements can be extremely beneficial.
Vitamin D not only helps with calcium and phosphorus absorption into our bloodstream but also helps to reduce your ability to heal from infections and can be a risk factor in developing an autoimmune disease.

Fish Oil Supplements
Ensuring you have a healthy and happy heart is so important, and taking a daily dose of fish oil is one of the most simple things you can do to protect it.
There have been studies that have shown fish oil has the ability to lower blood pressure, reduce blood clotting and lower your chance of having a fatal heart attack. On top of this, fish oil is a really great source of Omega 3 fatty acids, which can serve to decrease inflammation, boost your immune system and can also have a positive effect on mood and depression.

Multivitamin Supplements
Ideally, we should be able to get all of our nutrients from diet alone, but in today’s society, most food is either processed or washed and cleaned, meaning we are missing a lot of essential nutrients that we once got from the soil. Meaning even the healthiest of eaters might not be getting all of the nutrients that they need, which is why a good daily multivitamin is so important.
When looking for a multivitamin, you should look for one that contains vitamin A, vitamin C, vitamin E, calcium, magnesium and vitamins B1, B2, B6 and B12 – all of which can help boost your immune system while also giving you more energy during the day.

Probiotic Supplements
Although bacteria sounds bad, when it comes to your gut, bacteria is actually great! With all of the antimicrobial cleaners and soaps and antibiotics we are exposed to, our digestive tract sometimes struggles to get the right kind of bacteria to keep it balanced.
Probiotics are living microorganisms that promote good gut health, which can then strengthen your immune system, reduce your chances of getting the flu or a cold, improve digestion and help to cure irritable bowel disease.
You can get more probiotics in your diet by eating a good probiotic yoghurt, or by adding a probiotic supplement.
