About Boost Daily VitaminsOur MissionOur mission here at Boost Daily Vitamins is a simple one: to help you make informed choices about your health, nutrition, and diet by providing a wealth of information about daily vitamins and minerals and other nutrients -- what they do for us, why we need them, and where to get them.Who We AreSteve Helmer, retired from Alberta's oil patch, first started publishing Boost Daily Vitamins in late 2007.Steve has long been fascinated by the topics of food, nutrition, how the body works, and organic food and natural supplements. He is especially concerned that the nutritional quality of most of our food today is depleted by manufacturing processes and long times and distances from harvest to storefront. Steve knows that it is possible — in an ideal world where fresh means locally grown, freshly harvested and as unprocessed as possible — to get all of our daily vitamins and minerals from the food we eat. The reality is that for many of us it is not possible, and we need daily vitamins from manufactured supplements to meet our nutritional needs. Steve is an avid reader of everything to do with diets and nutrition, fitness, health, and organic food, and he's eager to share the wisdom of the gurus in vitamins and minerals and health. Many of his favourite books and bios of his favourite health and vitamins experts are reviewed throughout Boost Daily Vitamins. Steve has also succumbed to several fad diets over the years, and found that while his weight succumbed under the weight of those restrictive diets, it was always only a temporary gain in his weight control efforts. You'll find Steve's stories and his wisdom and passion for food, nutrition and healthy living flavouring the pages of Boost Daily Vitamins. Feel free to contact Steve Helmer.
