Mother, partner, carer, friend, employee or business owner – this is the demanding and rewarding reality for many women in the modern world. Our busy lifestyles can easily deplete us of micronutrients - vitamins and minerals that play important roles in maintaining energy production. Adequate amounts of these nutrients can be difficult to reach through diet alone and, over time, low levels can lead to fatigue and brain fog.
Whether it’s a time-poor lifestyle, difficulty accessing nutrient-dense ingredients, nutrient depletion in soils, long produce storage, or the widespread use of pesticides and fertilisers - the odds are stacked against busy modern women in their pursuit of a truly nutritious diet. This makes multivitamins an ideal strategy for boosting nutrition.
Key Nutrients in a Women’s Multivitamin for Energy & Cognitive Support
• Iron
Iron plays a major role in oxygen transport throughout the body and is critical for maintaining energy. Menstruation increases the risk of iron loss. Good sources of iron include red meats and poultry, green leafy vegetables, dried figs and dates, and some beans and lentils. For optimal absorption, pair with vitamin C-rich foods like citrus fruits, broccoli, berries, or capsicum. Note: Iron is especially beneficial for women under 50 years old.
• Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is essential for converting food into energy. Low levels are associated with fatigue and brain fog. As it is mainly found in animal foods (eggs, dairy, meat), vegetarians and vegans are at a higher risk of deficiency.
• Zinc
Zinc supports cognitive function and immunity. Rich dietary sources include shellfish, red meat, poultry, and to a lesser extent, nuts, seeds, and beans.
• Vitamin D
Often called the "sunshine vitamin", Vitamin D supports overall health and immunity. Without adequate sun exposure or intake from foods like egg yolks and fatty fish, symptoms such as fatigue may develop.
