Daily Supplements for Women's Health

Would you like to feel better during the menstrual cycle? Worry less about getting sick because you have a family to care for? Have enough energy to hold down a career, with some leftover for physical fitness and a vital sex life? Prevent common women’s aging ailments like osteoporosis?

Although sickness may come at some time or another, there is a way to feel confident that we’ve done all we can for our bodies through proper daily nutrition for continued women’s health. Here are some keys to good women’s health:

Here are some of the best supplements for complete daily nutrition to enhance women’s health:

Essential Fatty Acids: (EFA’s) – Essential fatty acids are just that – essential to women’s health, and should be included in our daily nutrition. EFA’s are the “good” oils, called Omega’s 3-6-9. They can be found in foods such as fish - salmon, tuna, mackerel and swordfish; nuts like almonds and sunflower seeds; avocados, flax, and olive oils. Our bodies manufacture and synthesize some, but supplemental EFA’s can help girls and women who may have these symptoms, or help to prevent them:

Eczema/dermatitis, rashes, early aging signs on facial skin
Dry, irritated eyes and itchy skin around eyes (“blephritis”)
Joint aches, inflammations, allergies, low immunities
Fatigue, mood swings, irritability (even ADD/ADHD)
Intense menstrual cramps
Symptoms of menopause like hot flashes and vaginal dryness

EFA’s are also important to our heart, circulatory and brain functions.

Calcium, but not by itself: Females need at least 1,000 mg’s of calcium per day. Past the teen years, we stop naturally absorbing enough through food nutrition. Although the best absorbed form is Calcium Citrate, calcium needs help reaching the bones. Using heartburn tablets for calcium is a myth. The best combination is Calcium Citrate with Vitamin D and Magnesium.
Preventive Measures against Infection: “Probiotics”, the good bacteria we need in our Immune Systems, are important to women’s health and young girls as well. Probiotics nestle in the intestines and are vital for good digestion. A healthy “gut” is a key to good bodily functions.

Everyone has some good and bad bacteria, but females are more prone to urinary tract and yeast infections which can occur when good bacteria is depleted. Any lowering of our Immune System can set this off – antibiotics, a sugary diet, intestinal ailments or continued feminine moistness from poorly structured underwear, water athletics, or intercourse.
