Really Good Vitamins
By Candida Eittreim onWe are saturated with ads for vitamins everyday, yet how many of these health promoting products really benefit us the way they claim to? My local TV station KCRA, did an extensive study of the top 5 vitamin companies and subjected their multivitamins to rigorous testing in an independent lab. Surprisingly, only GNC's vitamins contained the purest and most accurate dosage of viable vitamins and minerals. The rest, which included household name brands didn't even come close.
I have been taking GNC's Ultra Mega Women's vitamins for years. Having two autoimmune disorders means that fatigue is a big factor in my life. So good supplementation is a must. My internist had specifically recommended these multivitamins to me, so I gave them a try. Within 7 days fatigue was significantly lessened, my alertness increased, and my overall health improved markedly.
These vitamins are packed with all the essentials women need. Including 500mg of calcium, magnesium, vitamin Dand 80mg of vitamin B complex. You can buy Ultra Mega Women's with or without iron. Along with lycopene, you get 105 mg of antioxidants to eliminate free radicals from your system. Add a powerhouse array of minerals including zinc, selenium, copper, manganese and molybendium, and you have a multivitamin that just can't be beat.
Two capsules in the morning and you're set for your busy days.We women as a rule are so busy caring for others we often neglect ourselves badly. Between work, home, children and friends it seems there are never enough hours in the day to truly pay attention to our own health. If you find you constantly feel tired stressed and not quite with it, give GNC Ultra Mega Women's a try. If you buy their Gold Card you get significant discounts on any GNC product. On the Ultra Mega Women's, that is a savings of $3.49 on the 90 capsule bottle and $6.00 off the 180 capsule bottle. In addition, they offer these multi's as a two for one on a regular basis, making this a truly affordable buy.
I do not take a Multi but I do take various supplements that suit my needs. I am very intrigued on the testing that your local news did and I will take a peek and see what GNC has to offer.
Good vitamins are so important, I still have to remind my kids every morning though.
I have been looking to start taking a vitamin but was not sure which one to get. I will have to try these thanks!
This sounds like just what I need. I like that it has everything, including calcium.
That's so great that your fatigue lessened since you began taking these! I've taken these for a few years & noticed I have more energy since taking them!!
Sounds like a great multivitamin. Glad you have noticed such a difference in yourself. Thanks for sharing!
Great to know that someone did some testing and GNC came out well. That's valuable information.
I use to mange a GNC store in Ann Arbor MI. This is one of the best vitamins they had. I always had tons of women come in and say it's the only thing they would use. Thanks
This is one vitamin I think I need to start taking. Thanks for sharing this very helpful information.
I really should take my multi day vitamins more often. It's hard to remember now though 'cause I take Synthroid and the two should be separated by 6 hours. Interesting that GNC rated so high though. I'll have to pick some up and really make an extra effort to take them :0)
