Top Three Women’s Vitamins – What Every Woman Should Know

Jayson Hunter of Prograde Nutrition reveals the top three women’s vitamins specifically suited to meet the nutritional requirements of women. He believes vitamins for women should perform important functions such as slowing the aging process, strengthening the immune system and increasing energy levels.

Hunter explains, “For a woman who plays a multifaceted role at home and at work, the stress level on the body keeps on increasing. Women’s vitamins address every one of her demanding needs and make life easier for her”. He adds, “Women’s vitamins are also different from vitamins for men since they target the specific nutritional needs of women.

There are many women’s vitamins available in the market. Choosing a multivitamin versus a single vitamin source ensures that your body absorbs the nutrients properly, since many vitamins rely on each other for proper absorption.

Here are Hunter’s top three women’s vitamins:

1) Vitamin A/Beta-Carotene – It helps boost immunity levels and maintain healthy tissue. Women can take up to 5,000 IU of vitamin A, which includes about 20% through beta-carotene via natural foods like dark green leafy vegetables and oranges.

2) Vitamin D and Calcium – Both of these are amongst the best vitamins for women.  Vitamin D actually helps the body absorb the calcium more effectively. Look for a combination which provides both vitamin D and calcium.

3) Vitamin C – It is a powerful antioxidant, promotes healing and boosts immunity levels. Women can take about 50-100mg of vitamin C on a daily basis.

Before consuming any vitamins for women, please consult your doctor or registered dietitian to ensure that you are consuming vitamins that are best suited to your health.

About Prograde Nutrition: Launched in April of 2007, Florida based Prograde Nutrition was created by two fitness professionals concerned with the lack of an ethical dietary supplement company for personal trainers to refer clients to. Prograde does not make its products available in any stores. Instead, customers can only find them online, or through fitness experts they term "Prograde Pros."

The success of the company is largely in part to the faith of the personal training community in the company's founders, Jim Labadie, Ryan Lee, Jayson Hunter and Sammy See.
