From Collegiate Presswire's RadioWire (https://www.cpwire.com/radio): Radio With the low-carb craze in full swing, a new national survey shows that approximately one-third of Americans do not know that cutting carbohydrates can affect their intake of nutrients essential for maintaining health and reducing the risk of certain chronic diseases. Nutritionists and health professionals are advising the millions who are on low carb diets to consider taking a daily multivitamin. Registered dietitian and author of the book The Dish on Eating Healthy and Being Fabulous, Carolyn O�Neil: "Low carb diets limit the consumption of nutrient fortified foods like bread, pasta, and cereals. To help prevent gaps in nutrition, low carb dieters can take a complete multivitamin like Centrum Carb Assist, which is formulated to include the nutrients they might be missing. It also includes high levels of nutrients we all need to metabolize carbs, fats and proteins." A simple and cost-effective way to replace nutrients that may be missing from a low carb diet including vitamin B6, C, D, E and Folic Acid is by taking a daily multivitamin.
