Women's
Health
Did you know that heart disease is the
number one killer of women in America today? According to the
College of American Pathologists, more women die of heart
disease than any other disease. Cancer is next on the list of
killers for women, with lung cancer as the most common type
and breast cancer coming in second. These are issues you can’t
afford to ignore.1 Check out
the cancer and heart disease sections for more information on
how our vitamin will help you reduce your risk for these
diseases.
Now let’s take a look at some health
issues relating specifically to women. According to the Mayo
Clinic, as many as 75% of women suffer from some sort of
premenstrual symptoms. Even more dramatic are the statistics
that 30-40% of women have symptoms severe enough to disrupt
their daily activities.2
Our vitamins are prepared to help
nutritionally support many of the common symptoms that women
experience. Calcium was shown to reduce the physical and
psychological symptoms of PMS by nearly 50% in a study
published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology
in 1998.3 Magnesium was
shown to reduce bloating, water retention, and breast
tenderness by 40% in a 1998 study in the Journal of Women’s
Health.4 The Mayo Clinic
records that vitamin E is thought to help regulate the
production of prostaglandins.5 Prostaglandins are a hormone that can help to
alleviate cramps and breast tenderness.
Let’s not forget the mood swings and
depression with which many women suffer. In a study published
in the Journal of Reproductive Medicine in June of 1987, a
connection was shown between vitamin B6 and PMS.6 Thiamine has been shown to
improve mood as well.7
Another issue for women is the onset of
perimenopause (the period of time before cessation of
ovulation when symptoms first occur) and menopause. Vitamin E
comes to the rescue again in alleviating the discomfort of hot
flashes.8 Wild yam (due to
their containing progesterone type substances) and licorice
are also beneficial to relieving the symptoms that come with
menopause.9 One of the
unsung heroes in the nutrient division is essential fatty
acids or EFA's. EFA's help the body create and balance hormone
levels according to numerous studies.10
So where do you go when you are looking
for these nutrients to support womens health and you are
concerned about getting the right forms? Look no further than
The Greatest Vitamin in the World. The vitamins in our formula
are whole food based and absorbed much better than the
competition's synthetics (see vitamin section for research).
The minerals in our formula are patented and absorbed better
than any other kind (see mineral section for amazing study
graphs showing this). The EFA source in our formula is second
to none because of the CLA oil and proprietary form of fatty
acids in lecithin. All of this in a formula that also gives
you 100% of the essential nutrients your body needs
