Essential Daily Vitamins for Women
I think we all know it's important to take vitamins, but we don't always do it. At least I didn't. Part of the reason is because it feels like there is so much information on vitamins, I don't know what to take or where to start. So, the easy thing to do is simply take a multivitamin and be done with it- if you remember to take it.
I've been researching what Dr. Oz recommends because I trust his information and can understand what he's saying. Here's what I found he suggests and what I'm currently taking.
A Multivitamin
Dr. Oz says that we only need 100% of the daily value of the 12 essential vitamins and minerals, with iron for pre-menopausal women. When purchasing your vitamins, check for bottles labeled 100% daily allowance on label.
Multivitamins fulfill your nutritional needs for the day. Multivitamins contain:
Vitamin A – critical for healthy vision and skin
Vitamin B – a metabolism booster
Vitamin C – keeps your immune system strong, especially important during cold and flu season.
Vitamin D – promotes healthy bones (and your immune system)
Vitamin E – for healthy development of muscles and brain function
The Dose
Take half in the morning and half at night to maximize absorption.
Calcium Cocktail (Calcium + Additional Vitamin D + Magnesium)
Calcium is a necessary supplement for strong, healthy muscles, bones and teeth. You need to take it in combination with magnesium (to prevent the negative side effects of calcium) and vitamin D (to help the body absorb calcium) in order to get the maxium benefit.
It turns out that vitamin D is crucial when it comes to fighting off colds. An important part of Dr. Oz's anti-aging checklist, vitamin D plays a number of roles in our bodies, including:
*Promoting absorption of calcium and bone health
*Boosting immune function
*Reducing inflammation
*Healthy neuro-muscular function
*Protecting against some forms of cancer
The Dose
Calcium (600mg) with Magnesium (400mg) and Vitamin D (1,000 IU)
Take dose with a full glass of water, 2 hours after eating. Calcium can block the absorption of other supplements and prescriptions, so take it separately.
Fish Oil (Omega 3’s)
To keep your brain, heart and eyes healthy, take Omega 3’s every day.
The Dose
For women, the daily dose of Omega 3s is 1000 mg; for men, the dosage is 600 mg.
Astragalus
Although Astragalus isn't a vitamin, I take it daily for energy and anti-aging.
According to Dr. Oz, aging is the primary reason why your body feels depleted of energy. Add to that the boatload of daily tasks most of us face – work, household chores, childrearing – and it’s no wonder we're exhausted.
The supplement astragalus can help keep you going. This root, used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries, contains a special chemical that research has shown may actually help slow the aging process. This chemical activates the enzyme telomerase, which works on a cellular level to protect DNA from breaking down, thus warding off exhaustion and a host of other age-related symptoms and diseases.
The Dose
Take 200 mg of astragalus twice a day, in the morning and at night.
To help me remember to take my vitamins, and to keep me from asking, "Did I take that today?" I bought a daily vitamin holder at Target. I love it because it's got a side for am and pm and each compartment is large enough to hold all my pills. I take the calcium pill by itself in the afternoon.
Are you taking vitamins? Which ones? Where are you finding your information about which vitamins to take?
