Vitamins are essential for healthy & optimal body functions.
Sadly, the majority of people today don’t have a balanced diet and very likely are lacking in certain vitamins which means that they require a vitamin supplement to ensure that they’re not deficient in any essential vitamin.
Ideally, one would get everything they need from a healthy, well-balanced diet, but that’s not the case and these women can benefit from taking womens vitamins. The body may often need a vitamin supplement to compensate for a person not being able to consume the recommended daily allowance of certain vitamins through their normal diet.
Women are different than men, requiring different vitamins and minerals as well. Even women differ…a pregnant woman will require different vitamins than a teenager or post menopausal woman.
There are specific womens vitamins, minerals and nutrients that are important for supporting and promoting women’s health
Women need vitamins for special needs such as pregnancy, osteoporosis (Calcium supplements can help increase bone density and support bone health) and to have a healthy immune system. Calcium, Vitamin D, Iron, Folic Acid, Beta-carotene, B12 & B6, along with Omega 3 fatty acids are especially important for women to make sure they supply their bodies with ample amounts. Besides a multi-vitamin, there are specific supplements that are designed to improve the health of women’s hair, skin, hair, etc. that one may want to check into taking.
Disclaimer: Prior to taking any vitamin supplementation, it is best to consult your health care provider to verify how much of a vitamin you should consume.
