Today's Nutrition Tip
The importance of whole foods
Dietary supplements can complement your regular diet if you have trouble getting enough nutrients, but they aren't meant to be food substitutes. Whole foods — such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains and lean meats — provide more nutrition than supplements do and contain a variety of vitamins and minerals that are designed to work together. Reflect on your daily eats to make sure you're getting enough variety in your diet.
