A course of dietary supplements should be taken over a set period, alongside lifestyle changes to maximize its benefits. Our nutrition experts aim to answer your main questions. 

Deficiencies in vitamins, minerals and trace elements are common nowadays (you can read our article on why to take supplements) and can worsen as we age. The earlier your deficiencies are identified and corrected, the lower the risk of imbalance and cellular aging. 

1. How long should I take my course?   

On average, we recommend 3 months for the body to replenish its vitamins and minerals (1) (2), but this depends on your individual needs and initial deficiencies. This course should be accompanied by dietary and lifestyle changes (physical exercise, stress management) so that the body maintains sufficient vitamin intake after the course and you can adopt good habits that will help the body rebalance over the long term.

2. When should I take my course?  

Plant ingredients are better absorbed outside of meals. To avoid any interactions, we recommend taking your capsules in the morning on an empty stomach, between meals, with a large glass of water.
If you forget to take your dose, don’t make up for it by taking a double dose the next day; continue your course as usual.

To avoid forgetting, you can easily adopt a few habits: place your pill organizer somewhere strategic (kitchen, bathroom, etc.) or at the office, use reminders on your phone or in your calendar, or slip your travel pill organizer into your bag. 

Come and answer our questionnaire to find out what your body needs and so we can provide you with your personalized solution.
