Hi guys.
I have a question.
Would multivitamins (one-a-day variant) be sufficient to cover for the lack of dietary requirements that diet needs?
i.e. would taking more tablets daily = lessen the need for me to take 3 meals daily?
The thing is, it gets hectic at work, and as a result, I'd have to skip meals (breakfast and lunch usually), and am concern that it would have adverse effect on my body..

QUOTE(ihbmart @ May 19 2015, 08:46 AM) Hi there, In my opinion, multivitamins are not replacement for meals. Multivitamins do not contain any carbohydrate, protein & fat. You may try some nutritional formula (ie. Good Morning V Plus, Ensure etc) which may act like a meal replacement. Having said so, not advisable to skip the meals. Hope that helps ^ Noted on the above reply, much appreciated. I may try to buy protein shake (off the shelf from pharmacy) to supplement my daily dietary requirement.

QUOTE(-kytz- @ May 25 2015, 04:21 PM) Whole or natural foods are the best. Use protein shakes as supplements like to fill up your daily macro requirement. ^ Thanks for the info. I have tried to incorporate as much as possible in my diet. e.g. eating whole-grain bread instead of white bread. However, at times it is difficult, as usually natural food are more expensive than processed food.
