If it should be taking supplements, Nanny advised to choose a supplement that suits your needs. For example, pregnant women usually need iron supplements to avoid anemia, folic acid for the mental health of the fetus, and calcium to maintain bone health of the mother is "taken" calcium by the fetus.
Other supplements, need to be adjusted. If it is able to be satisfied with food, do not need to add anymore because it would be redundant actions. "And preferably before the consumption of supplements, consult the experts, both the type and dose," Nanny suggestions.

Long-term effects
According to Nanny, long taken as a rule, the actual supplements will not give serious side effects. But he stay advised to always consult when going to use supplements in the long run.
"Because each person's nutritional needs vary, the supplements also need to be tailored to the needs of each individual," he said.
So if the person's consumption of supplements will not give any side effects, not necessarily in other people too. Side effects also depend on the type and dose of supplements used.
