Supplements

The human body is one amazing piece of machinery in action. He is a living being which is adept at communication, an intelligent mammal who knows how to shape his environment, and a mechanism which is capable of self-renewal.

Throughout my childhood and teens, like most other peers, the occasional cough and cold did not get me down a teensy bit, and pretty soon, I would be all alive and jumping again. However, with the passing of time, this mechanism seems to be slowing down, and suffers from more and longer downtime.

To avoid the over-reliance on curative medicine to overcome these signs of unhealthy balances, I sought to seek a more holistic approach to restoring a more harmonic state in my body. I chose supplements.

Faced with an initial barrage of supplements out on the market, I was soon dizzy with confusion and hesitation. There has to be at least a hundred types of pills gracing the shelves, claiming numerous benefits and functions. Carefully sifting through research on the web and coupled with professional advice from the doctor, I decided to start off my supplement regime with a few basics.

My daily assortment of supplements

Even with just four basics, I have yet to fully adjust to neither the mental thought nor the routine of consuming four pills on a daily basis. At times, I still wonder if I am just being a nervous wreak, worrying over the unnecessary. Nevertheless, supplements, as they are so-named, are meant to assist our bodily functions which may at times suffer from downtime, and this is a conviction I still hold true to my heart.

The sole challenge now is perseverance.
