Residents in Singapore resorting to supplements to stay healthy?


"She takes an assortment of vitamins and a supplement for her joints - costing her $350 per month"
"High daily doses of certain vitamins can cause more harm than good to the body."
"For example, high doses of vitamin C have been known to cause kidney stone."

No doubt, we do receive a lot of health information via TV, newspaper and internet, however, we may not know the accuracy of the information.

For example, people here spent up to $638millions a year on vitamins and dietary supplements, it's because of influence from media i.e. advertisement or through friend or did we really done research on it before popping it?


We all know vitamins/minerals are important nutrients for a healthy immune system, but the question now is we should know where is the correct source to obtain the nutrients that our body need.


"High daily doses of certain vitamins can cause more harm than good to the body."
"For example, high doses of vitamin C have been known to cause kidney stone."
 "She takes an assortment of vitamins and a supplement for her joints - costing her $350 per month"


Is taking vitamin pills same as taking an whole food like Orange?


Between a plate of fruits or vegetables vs multivitamins supplements – which one will u choose?

Is it a good or correct practice? 

These are topics we need to be concerned about. Higher risk of mortality associated with taking vitamins or multivitamin supplements. 

Again, is supplement same as wholesome food?




Some even shared with me that despite taking daily doses of Vit and multivits supplements, their health didn’t improve.  They still constantly develop into migraine, frequent flu, fever and cough.

Be a wise consumer, go for wholesome!
