Can GFUEL be used as a suplement of minerals and vitamine, instead af taking vitamine pills?
Latest evidence suggests energy drinks aren't a good choice. Minerals and vitamins aren't lacking in Western diets, so an extra intake is completely unnecesary, except for certain diets (vegetarians need some extra vitamins) or diseases. If you're following a normal diet (or no diet), you don't need pills or energy drinks. There are some misconceptions concerning this:
If vitamins are good, more vitamins = better? False. Vitamins are a necessity, lack of them causes some serious health trouble, but once you're taking enough, more isn't better (in fact, excess of no matter what substance is, by definition, bad).
Vitamins = vitality? False. Vitamins are precursors of certain coenzymes and have different actions, but it has nothing to do with the sensation of vitality and energy.
Thanks!
