Remix Magazine: How To Correct Nutrient Deficiencies & Stay Healthy Year-Round
Remix Magazine: How To Correct Nutrient Deficiencies & Stay Healthy Year-Round
We can all feel a shift as summer fizzles out and the days grow shorter.

We often don’t realise that these minor deficiencies, particularly in vitamins like C, and D, and minerals like iron, can leave us vulnerable to illness, fatigue, and an overall lack of energy. As we transition into the cooler months, it’s the perfect time to focus on correcting those nutritional gaps and supporting our immune system for the year ahead.
