Vitamins Provide the Additional Support
We Need During Menopause

We all know that diet and exercise are key to good health. You have probably read we need to eat five helpings of fruit and vegetables, and to exercise at least thirty minutes a day. If you plan out your day it is possible to walk or run or bike for 30 minutes. But how many people manage to eat five helpings of vegetables or fruit? It is especially hard for women with our hectic schedules and conflicting obligations. So, we take a multiple vitamin every day.

It is crucial for women to choose a multiple vitamin that provides more than a daily dose of vitamin C. When we enter perimenopause and then menopause our bodies require added support, not only for strong bones and a healthy heart, but for our hair and skin and for our fluctuating moods.

How to choose a good vitamin? There are many resources. Ask who you trust. It may be a good friend with personal experience, your pharmacist, the manager at your health food store, or your physician to name a few.

Vitacost.com gives you choice. It also offers a variety of brand-name vitamins at wholesale prices.
"Although natural progesterone can have wonderfully curative effects on the symptoms of premenopause syndrome, it works best when you eat wholesome foods, pay attention to possible food allergies, and take nutritional supplements. The rewards of eating a nutritious diet are more than worth the sacrifices. You'll decrease your risk of future heart disease, cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis and arthritis. If your diet has consisted largely of high calorie, nutrition-free foods such as candy bars and cookies, your energy and moods will improve dramatically."
