However, there are some cases where it is difficult to consume certain foods due to food allergies, scarcity, seasons, climate and weather changes, etc. This is where vitamins and/or supplements may help with providing your body the necessary nutrients that otherwise may be consumed less than the recommended amounts.
If you are already eating the recommended amounts of foods, you may not need to take any vitamins and/or dietary supplements.
