Merhaba..(Hello)in Turkish,
My name is Manjeet Ahuja and I know you must be thinking that who the hell I am to teach and recommend you guys, right? Well, I am a certified fitness trainer and going to be a diet nutritionist too. I’ve consumed many types of food supplements in my life. But you won’t need to consume all of them because I’ll recommend you only the good ones.
Enough introduction lets shift to the topic,
Currently, there are millions of people who don’t get proper, clean and hygienic food and as a result that their life expectancy ratio is decreasing day by day, The reason for that is nowadays farmers are used to injecting some harmful substances or chemicals in the human foods to make it over-ripened and to shorten it’s growing period so that they can make thousands instead of hundreds. So, my answer is YES supplements are in fact good, nowadays it has become necessary to consume food supplements to last our life expectancy ratio i.e. to live more.
Now, let’s GAIN some knowledge on types of food supplements:
Well, there thousands of supplements offered by various companies in the world and also it’s not possible to mention them all here so here we’ll pour out just the tumbler of great and famous products in the world.
