Pop! Hiss! Buzz! .... The importance of your Multivitamin

Pop! Hiss! Buzz!....then nothing. Anxiety starts to take over as you realize your car has just broken down.
"Why did this happen? How do I fix it? How do I prevent it from happening again?"
Do you recognize the expression "your body works like a car?"  Do you know exactly what it means and it's correlation?

First things first...
In order for a car to run properly, many elements need to be in place at all times. Often we "forget" the maintenance of our vehicles because superficially, everything appears to be working fine. However, without fail eventually, be it a noise, a smell, or a jerk, your car will begin to shut down. This damage is usually the cause of something that was PREVENTABLE.

Similarly, we treat our bodies with the same neglectful mindset. "If I feel okay, then nothing is wrong." It is that very thought process that causes chronic illness and terminal disease.

Looking at this lengthy list may intimidate you. However, unlike our cars, we have a wonderful and simple way to insure we maintain proper nutrient levels on a daily basis. VITAMINS. Without them, our bodies will not run properly and will be susceptible to fatal ailments. 

Multi-vitamins are extremely important to take EVERY day because lets face it, nobody is perfect.  Taking a vitamin with high daily % helps your body maintain homeostasis and is a great PREVENTATIVE tool for keeping illness at bay.
