We all know how precious our health is, and more and more of us are finding ways to support our health in any way we can.
The key to overall health is to ensure that we give our bodies all the vitamins and minerals that they need.

However, this is not always practical, and different dietary requirements and lifestyles mean that we are not always getting everything we need.
The value of vitamin supplements
That is when most of us turn to some sort of vitamin supplements. They usually come in tablet or capsule form and give us a daily dose of whatever it is that we might be lacking.
There is now a wide range of different vitamins available, enabling us to fill the specific holes in our vitamin intake, although identifying what it is we need is not always easy.
B Vitamins
Some vitamins can seem like a lucky dip from a bag of scrabble tiles, but they all have an important role to play.
This is true of the important B vitamins, which include biotin, thiamine and vitamin B12.
Many of these are involved in keeping the nervous system healthy, and vitamin B12 is key to this as a lack of it can lead to a form of anaemia.
Usually this would be obtained from meat, fish, milk and cheese, but if these are not part of your diet then you will need to find a supplement such as the Holland & Barratt Vitamin B12 100 Tablets to substitute it.
Better still, this formulation is suitable for vegans and vegetarians and one to two tablets can be taken daily.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D is an important vitamin that we hear a lot about. But it does not come from our diet.
The majority of vitamin D comes from sunlight, but living in the UK, that is not something that is in abundance all year round.
During the winter months, we often suffer a shortage of vitamin D, so taking a supplement is a great way to give yourself the Vitamin D you need.
Collagen
Some supplements keep us healthy on the inside, whilst others are designed to keep the outside looking good.
There are now collagen supplements which aim to replenish the collagen we naturally lose as we age.
