Dr Mark Draper ( my dad) is a GP in Gloucestershire and a micro-nutritionist who has run courses for other doctors and medical professionals focussed on the vitamins and minerals we need to be healthy.Here he explains how his interest and passion for vitamins and minerals was sparked when working as a doctor in the Turks and Caicos islands - he and his colleagues found huge improvements in the island children's health after iron tablets were handed out at schools. Dad has helped design ingredient for show partner Cytoplan's early range of multivitamins and is the reason I've been taking their supplements since boyhood.In this conversation we discuss: *)Why we need to supplement*) Iron* Vitamin D * Selenium and Zinc* Women's mineral and vitamin requirements* Men's mineral and vitamin requirements * Vegan diet * Vegetarian dietI hope this is useful.
