Then you can always order on-line. Also, there are several other benefits with supplementing your diet....
One of the problems with today's foods is that many are grown in soil that has lost its nutrients over time. So, you end up with fruit or veggies that look right due to an assortment of reasons including genetic engineering, etc., but contain much less of what you need. Organic foods seem to overcome this problem but I suspect those benefits will diminish as organic becomes more and more mainstream.
Another good reason to supplement can be based on your lifestyle. And by that, I mean how hard you may work out, how much you work and the mental stress that may produce, as well as other things like poor sleeping or the stress of travel. All these activities can stress your system.
Higher than 100% levels of certain elements can actually be a good thing given all of the above. The B complex is a good example of a natural energy boost. My only concern with fortified foods is the lack of information on how it is fortified and the source of the chemicals used. Actually, fortified foods frighten me personally.
