The human body is a complex of many processes going on simultaneously. With so much going on, the body needs a steady supply of energy to sustain this activity. This required energy is in the form of minerals, vitamins, and many other nutrients which are essential for the body. Now, ideally, all of these requirements should be fulfilled by food but due to many reasons, our body may experience a deficiency of one or more essential nutrients. To cover this deficiency, supplements are taken that ensure the smooth functioning of the body. These dietary supplements can in no way substitute healthy food as their function is only to fill any gaps left behind in the required essentials. Usually, a negative connotation is associated with supplements but it’s not the supplements that are bad but their abuse that can create some problems. When used responsibly, they provide adequate amounts of essential nutrients. To ensure a healthy lifestyle, these supplements play a very important role with prior knowledge of their use as a pre-condition. Many people wonder, are these supplements safe to take? For their satisfaction, all dietary supplements are passed through many stages of evaluation before making them available to consumers. In addition, drug authorities take any supplement off the market if they are found to be causing any kind of harm. However, it is advised to always gather maximum information before taking any supplement and never use any without a doctor’s approval.

May is Fibromyalgia Awareness Month. Fibromyalgia is a chronic illness that causes widespread, chronic pain in the musculoskeletal system, along with debilitating fatigue, brain fog, depression, other mental health symptoms, and more. Fibromyalgia can develop after an infection or injury, but sometimes has no apparent triggering event. Fibromyalgia can vary significantly in severity, but many people with this condition struggle to work, attend school, and/or manage housework and other daily tasks.
