Turn to your diet first to fulfill your nutritional needs. Getting your nutrition through a healthful, diverse diet may help lower your risk of cardiovascular disease, cancer, and other chronic conditions better than getting it through supplements, evidence suggests. Don't toss your supplements, however. They are a good way to fill in nutrition gaps when your diet falls short.
Eat a diverse diet that is low in calories and high in nutrients
