nutritional supplements, vitamins minerals I went on a trip last week and brought along my nutritional supplements because I wasn't sure how my hosts ate and I'm so glad that I did. They live up north far from the parts of the country that grow fresh greens almost all year long, so when we went into the grocery stores, we were shocked at the price of fresh romaine and spinach, but with the nutritional supplements along, it wasn't so critical that we missed our fresh salads every day. We are so lucky to live in a part of the country where the fields that grow these nutritious greens are abundant and shipping isn't expensive. We can buy a bag of greens for $1, compared to the $6 up north, so the claims about how expensive it is to eat healthy are true, although fortunately for us, it is relatively inexpensive to eat fresh vegetables and fruit so we get plenty of vitamins minerals each day. It does make a difference in how we feel, so by taking along our nutritional supplements,we were able to maintain good health even though we missed our fresh, crispy salads loaded with delicious produce.
