Key Ingredients for Women Over 55
This Multivitamin delivers a targeted blend of nutrients to support your changing body:
-
Methylated Folate and B12: These active forms of B vitamins are readily utilised by the body to support cellular energy production and brain health. Methylation becomes especially important after 55, as the ability to convert synthetic vitamins may decline with age.
-
Vitamin D3 (1000 IU): Essential for calcium absorption and bone health, vitamin D3 is a key nutrient for maintaining strong bones as you age.
-
Choline: This often-overlooked nutrient supports cognitive function and helps maintain healthy brain cell membranes.
-
Biotin: Known for supporting healthy hair, skin, and nails, biotin also contributes to normal energy metabolism.
Note: This formula does not contain iron, as many women over 55 no longer need supplementary iron and may prefer to avoid it.
