Discover the 7 Must-Have Supplements Every Woman Needs

Hey there, Peachy Fam!

Guess what? I've got some awesome tips to share with you about keeping your body in tip-top shape, especially if you're just starting out on your fitness journey. You know, it's super important to make sure we're giving our bodies the right nutrients, even if we're eating a healthy diet. That's where supplements come in handy!

A dietitian named Sarah Thomsen Ferreira from the Cleveland Clinic Center dropped some serious knowledge bombs about supplements that I wanted to share with you. There's a lot of gold nuggets in here so enjoy! She also emphasizes the importance of choosing supplements that have been tested by a third party and are USP verified. This ensures you're getting exactly what you need without any unwanted surprises. Super important!

Now, let's dive into some key nutrients that us ladies should pay extra attention to:

  1. Calcium: This mineral is crucial for bone health, especially as we age. Aim to get around 500 to 600 milligrams daily, but always check with your doc to find the right dose for you.
  2. Vitamin D: Not only does it help with calcium absorption, but it also supports our immune system and mood. If you're not getting enough sun exposure, consider a supplement.
  3. Fish Oil: Omega-3s are like magic for our hearts and joints. If you're not a big fish eater, a supplement can help fill the gap.
  4. Folate: This B vitamin is essential for cell growth, especially during pregnancy. Leafy greens are a great source, but a supplement can be helpful too.
  5. Iron: Many women are deficient in iron, which can lead to fatigue. Make sure you're getting enough through your diet or a supplement, especially if you're pregnant or have heavy periods.
  6. Magnesium: From muscle function to blood pressure regulation, magnesium does it all. Load up on leafy greens and nuts, or consider a supplement if you're not hitting your daily quota.
  7. Lutein: Protect those peepers with this antioxidant powerhouse. Lutein helps defend against age-related macular degeneration and can even protect your skin from UV damage.

So there you have it, Peachy Fam! A little insight into the world of supplements and how they can support your fitness journey. Remember, it's always best to chat with your healthcare provider before adding anything new to your routine.
