If you think that your nutritional requirements will be met with supplements and that supplements contain everything that is needed, then you are hugely mistake. Natural healthy diet is the best method and the supplements are to be used only if you have a proven deficiency. The word supplement means that it is a booster to the existing regimen. Hence, diet is and should always be the primary source of nutrition.
