Vitamins for women
From supporting your immune system and skin health, to maintaining your energy levels and hormonal balance. Whatever your needs are as a woman, our range of minerals and vitamins for women's health has you covered.
Women's vitamin and mineral supplements
A daily multivitamin and mineral supplement designed for adult women is the most effective way to ensure your body gets all the vitamins and minerals it needs, especially if you don't eat a balanced diet full of fruits and vegetables.
Our range of vitamin and mineral supplements for women are specifically designed with the essential nutrients the female body requires to help it handle various health issues only faced by women.
For example:
- Women need more calcium than men do—1,000 milligrams per day versus 800 milligrams for men.
- Women also need more vitamin D than men—600 IU per day versus 400 IU for men.
This is because as women age, they're at risk of developing osteoporosis, so it's important that they take in plenty of calcium throughout their lives.
Also, as women go through certain physiological changes - menstruation, pregnancy, breastfeeding, menopause, women's supplements can support their changing body and help it maintain normal function.
Folic acid for pregnant women
During pregnancy, your body needs more vitamins and minerals than it did before the pregnancy. Even though you may be eating healthy meals during this time in your life (or at least trying), it's still possible that you might not be getting all of the amazing nutrients you and your baby need for normal growth and development.
While you can get most vitamins and minerals from food, there are some that you may need to take additional supplements for. For example, folic acid (Vitamin B9) is especially important for pregnant women because it helps prevent birth defects such as spina bifida. However, many people do not get enough folic acid from their diets alone; therefore taking a supplement is recommended for pregnant women, especially during the first trimester of their pregnancy.
Key vitamins and minerals for breastfeeding mothers
Calcium and vitamin D are two of the most important nutrients for bone health, because both are necessary to help your body build strong bones.
However, when you're pregnant or breastfeeding, your body needs more vitamin D than usual, meaning many women who are pregnant or breastfeeding might not be getting enough key nutrients from food sources alone.
Vitamin supplements to support the menopause
As you age, your oestrogen levels naturally decrease. This happens to women at different times and in different amounts, but most women will be affected by menopause at some point in their lives.
Since less oestrogen means less calcium being absorbed by the body — especially if you're not getting enough sun exposure — vitamin D supplementation becomes especially important during this time of life.
Vitamin D is extremely important for overall health and wellness because it regulates many bodily functions from the immune system to cardiovascular health and even brain health. In addition, vitamin D plays a part in keeping bones strong by improving calcium absorption.
What to look for in a women's multivitamin
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin that's important for vision, skin health, and immune function. The human body can produce some of its own vitamin A from beta-carotene (a substance found in yellow/orange vegetables) but it needs supplementary sources as well.
Vitamin A is also known as retinol since this form is the purest and most active form of the vitamin.
Vitamin B1 (thiamine)
Thiamine is a vitamin that helps the body convert carbohydrates into energy. It also helps the nervous system function properly and plays a role in making red blood cells. Thiamine also helps the body use fats and proteins, make antibodies, DNA, and other important molecules.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin)
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is an essential nutrient needed for energy production and protein metabolism. It also helps to maintain healthy skin, hair and nails.
However, many people have a suboptimal intake of vitamin B2 due to a variety of factors such as age-related loss of saliva that can result in low hydrochloric acid levels in the stomach.
Niacin (B3)
Niacin is a B vitamin that helps convert food into energy. It also helps keep your skin, hair and eyes healthy. Niacin is also necessary for the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.
Vitamin B3 may also help maintain healthy skin by helping to repair damaged tissues and promote turnover of old cells.
Pantothenic Acid (B5)
Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) is an essential vitamin that helps with energy production by metabolising fats, carbohydrates and proteins. It's also involved in red blood cell formation.
Although pantothenic acid deficiency isn't common among healthy adults who are getting enough calories to meet their needs, it's still important to make sure you're getting enough B5 each day because insufficient levels of this nutrient can lead to fatigue, insomnia and depression.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine)
Vitamin B6, also known as pyridoxine, helps with the breakdown of protein, fat and carbohydrates. It also helps with the production of red blood cells and neurotransmitters, hormones that regulate moods.
Vitamin B6 also aids in the production of antibodies to fight off infections like colds or flu. Vitamin B6 deficiency can cause weakness and fatigue, depression, irritability, headaches, and numbness in hands or feet.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is used to help make red blood cells in your body and to maintain a healthy nervous system.
A deficiency can lead to anaemia, which causes fatigue and weakness, paleness of the skin, heart palpitations or irregular heartbeat, depression, anxiety or difficulty sleeping.
If left untreated it can cause serious complications like nerve damage that leads to paralysis or cognitive problems with dementia-like symptoms.
Folate
Folate is a B vitamin that helps your body build new cells and make genetic material. Folate also helps your body use iron, which is an important mineral that carries oxygen through the blood to tissues.
You also need folate to help prevent birth defects in babies. Mothers should take folic acid before getting pregnant or early in pregnancy (before 12 weeks).
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is one of the best ways to boost the immune system, to protect against cardiovascular disease, and prevent prenatal health problems. It can even reduce skin wrinkling because it's essential to the body generating collagen production.
Vitamin D
When it comes to bone health, calcium and vitamin D are the most well-known nutrients. And they're important—the National Institutes of Health reports that studies show women who have a higher intake of calcium have a lower risk of osteoporosis.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin that is important for cell health. It's also an antioxidant that protects the body from free radicals. Vitamin E is also a powerful anti-inflammatory agent.
Best minerals for women's health
Calcium supplement
Calcium is an important mineral for women's health. Calcium helps build and maintain strong bones, but it also plays a role in muscle contractions, the functioning of nerves and rhythm, blood clotting, and the secretion of hormones.
Calcium supplements are recommended for women over 50 who don't get enough calcium in their diets. Women under 50 should aim to get at least 1,000 milligrams of calcium per day, through diet or supplements.
Some people prefer to take a supplement that combines calcium with vitamin D.
Iron
Iron is an essential mineral that helps transport oxygen throughout the body. It's important in energy production and maintaining healthy red blood cells, which carry oxygen.
Iron deficiency is a common problem among women - particularly among menstruating women, and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Iron deficiency can cause fatigue and weakness, as well as other symptoms like dizziness or anaemia.
Iron supplements can help prevent anaemia by boosting red blood cell production in your body. However, it's important to talk with your doctor before taking any kind of iron supplement, because too much iron can cause serious side effects like nausea and vomiting.
Magnesium
Magnesium helps keep muscles relaxed, including your heart muscle, which can aid normal blood flow through your arteries. It also helps regulate blood pressure so you don't get high blood pressure symptoms, like headaches or dizziness.
Magnesium also helps regulate calcium levels in your body, which is key for maintaining strong bones and preventing osteoporosis later in life.
Magnesium levels can be low if you have conditions such as diabetes or coeliac disease (a condition where gluten damages the intestines).
Potassium
Potassium is an electrolyte and water-balancing mineral that plays a role in muscle function, nerve transmission, and other important bodily functions.
Potassium helps maintain normal blood pressure by balancing the amount of sodium in your body. The kidneys regulate potassium levels by removing excess amounts from the blood when necessary.
Zinc
Zinc is important for maintaining a strong immune function because it plays a role in fighting off infection. Zinc also helps wounds heal faster by speeding up tissue repair.
Zinc is also important for bone health because it supports growth and development as well as helping your body maintain bone density as you age (meaning you'll be less likely to break bones).
