Santé is a co-subsponsor of Team Continu:the skating team led by Marianne Timmer. Marianne shares a tip every day to keep fit with Santé. Today:how do you use nutritional supplements?
Marianne: 'When taking dietary supplements, it is important to take the following recommendations into account:
• Use a balanced amount. Use the recommended dose that you should take through food as a benchmark.
• Do not purchase anything via the internet or mail order companies.
• Avoid products with unclear package leaflets and/or with an exaggerated indication (for example Slimming pills that promise to lose 10 kilos in 4 weeks).
• Never believe the label 'natural' or 'organic'.
• Always inform your doctor and pharmacist if you are taking nutritional supplements. Vitamins and minerals can influence the effect of other medicines.'
