Vitamins and Supplements a Waste of Money? Healthy eating made easy When you take nutrients out of food and eat them as supplements they are not going to pack the same punch. There is tremendous value in consuming the whole food. Furthermore, some supplements may go right on through the gastrointestinal tract without being digested. You might say that organic veggies and fruits are expensive. But when you think about it, if you stop buying all those expensive supplements you might be able to afford more of the healthy food. If you eat a diet rich in vegetables, lean protein and healthy grains and fiber, there are only a couple of things you might need in addition. Those supplements include calcium, vitamin D and possibly fish oil. Vitamin D is hard to get if you wear sunscreen, which will block its absorption. Calcium may also be hard to get if you are unable to eat dairy products, and if you are unable to find fresh fish, fish oil may be needed as a supplement. That’s about it.
