Supplement..

STOP BEFORE YOU POP

Many of us take supplements, but we're not always doing it right. According to a US study, people with a high cholesterol, for example, were much more likely to take vitamin E than those without the disease. Yet this nutrient hasn't been proved to reduce cholestrol; it may even interfere with other treatment.

On the other hand, woman who suffer a fracture due to osteoporosis aren't any more likely to take calcium suppliment than healthy women, even through much recearch shows calcium helps. Vitamin information seems to change weekly, so talk to your doctor before taking supplement.
