Most people enjoy a balanced diet and good health if they follow the USDA or WHO dietary guidelines encouraged in one form or another worldwide. However, some people don't obtain the recommended amount of important nutrients from food alone. Causes may be personal and behavioral—aging, poor nutrition, malabsorption, oxidative stress—or external and environmental—exposure to harmful chemicals, and other factors. Properly tested vitamin supplements may help to address deficiencies by promoting a nutritional balance. The Elixir Clinic Co-founders, Acaena Amoros and Mahi Aramideh, will address the potential benefits as well as misconceptions surrounding nutritional supplementation, and will endorse the importance of maintaining long-term well-being through healthy lifestyle choices.
