Vitamin B deficiencies are on the rise!
Even in developed countries, many people do not consistently get enough B vitamins in their diets. This is due to several environmental factors, including the prevalence of excessive industrial agriculture and soil degradation. Over-farming robs soils of the magnesium and trace elements essential for plants to produce B vitamins. To add insult to injury, the ingestion of processed foods, food allergies and intestinal disorders (which are on the rise) all promote clinical or subclinical B vitamin deficiencies.
Active lifestyle = Greater need for B vitamins
Research on supplements has emphasized over time the importance of B vitamins in exercise performance, which is primarily due to the involvement of B vitamins in energy production. In the general population, the body's needs for vitamins and minerals are met by a healthy, balanced diet. However, recent data suggest that despite the abundant calorie intake of North Americans, many still suffer from clinical and subclinical B vitamin deficiencies.
In athletes and the active lifestyle population, vitamin deficiencies occur for a variety of reasons. If you are active, here are seven reasons why you may have a B vitamin deficiency;
- You are on a strict diet with a small variety of foods. This is very common in athletes, especially during a competitive season
-
You are following a vegan or vegetarian diet
-
You are over 50 years old
-
You are training intensively or starting a new training program. Your body's metabolic pathways for energy production are pushed to their limits during intense training. As a result, your need for certain vitamins may increase
-
As your metabolism adapts to your training, your need for trace minerals tends to increase
-
Physical activity can lead to the elimination of micronutrients through sweat, urine and stool
-
Vitamin requirements increase with increased muscle mass
