B vitamins can be especially beneficial for those who don't eat enough meats or are pregnant or nursing

Do you want or are you trying to cut down on your body's fat intake? Contrary to many people's belief, not all fat is bad, in fact, the body needs essential fatty acids in order to function properly. When trying to limit the amount of fat consumed in your diet you are probably unknowingly robbing it of unsaturated fatty acids (good fat) which is essential for good health
Do you ever suffer from water retention or feel bloated? Water retention is usually your body's attempt to store water because you aren't drinking enough of it! The body is 75% water - drinking a recommended 2 litres daily will help your body regain its water balance and help rejuvenate poorly hydrated cells
Are you getting the recommended amount of fibre every day? (equivalent to 25 slices of wholemeal bread) The typical western diet tends to be high in fat and low in fibre - typically 50% lower than recommended. Our digestive tract performs more efficiently with a good supply of fibre, which helps carry out wastes and toxins creating a healthier internal environment.
Do you find it difficult to lose weight and keep it off? You need to burn as many calories as you consume in order to regulate body weight. The body is designed for movement; muscles need to be used or fat storage areas can develop. Increasing energy levels through regular exercise coupled with reduced calorie intake is essential to encourage a favourable fat-burning environment

Do you suffer from muscle fatigue and tension after exercise? Physical exercise can cause our muscles to feel tense and ache, especially if its not done on a regular basis. Increased nutritional and other measures should be taken in order to assist the muscles to remain supple and mobile
Do you sometimes take antibiotics or suffer from constipation? A poor diet or overuse of antibiotics can deplete the good bacteria (friendly flora) present in the intestinal tract, which allows bad bacteria to take over and lead to health related problems
Do you eat fish 3-4 times each week? (as recommended by nutritional experts) Marine food is rich in Omega-3 essential fatty acids, which are vital for the proper function of the heart, circulation and to help maintain supple joints.
