Singaporeans are increasingly adopting a healthy lifestyle and as you get healthier and take more control of your workouts and nutrition, you get into understanding more about vitamins and supplements you should integrate into your daily life. Before you get on going with buying vitamins or supplements, we recommend you to always verify with a health professional, ideally a doctor and a nutritionist.
First of all, it’s important to know that vitamins and supplements are not regulated by any government agency or organization in terms of their efficacy or even their authenticity and purity. This is why it’s even more important to understand what you will buy and integrate in your day to day life with some health professionals. As much as getting advice from those who know how to use them it great, your body is different than theirs and you never know!
Where to buy your supplements in Singapore?
The safest bet is to buy in-store at places like Guardian, Unity, GNC, or Holland & Barrett, but you may be spending 10-50% more than if you buy online. The selection online is also more vast, but again, because there are actually no regulations, you never really know 110% what you are buying.
