Citando:
"A range of common symptoms many adults suffer from could be explained by poor diets and a lack of minerals and vitamins. Here, MailOnline Health reveals how to combat bad breath, headaches and even stress"
(...)
"DON'T JUST ACCEPT THE SYMPTOMS
(...) 'Many of these symptoms are things people put up with every day, thinking they are just par for the course.
'But often, they could be a sign that you are suffering a vitamin or mineral deficiency and simply eating foods which contain the item you are lacking could ease your symptoms.
'For example, a headache could be an indicator that you need more magnesium, vitamin B12 and B6 - something you can get from eating pumpkin seeds, prunes, banana or fortified soy milk.
'And even bad breath, while a possible sign of poor oral hygiene, could also be linked to your gut health and an iron deficiency.
'It's important to bear in mind that your ability to absorb vitamins and minerals can also be affected by medications you are taking, such as antibiotics or the oral contraceptive pill as well as aspects of your diet such as whether you drink tea or coffee.'"
