As unique as women are, so are their nutritional needs that constantly change throughout their life stages. Women in general may face silent challenges in maintaining their health and wellness and often experience specific health issues that require special attention and care.

DAILY SUPPORT NOW

Women often have busy schedules juggling the many responsibilities life brings, making it difficult to maintain a balanced diet and eat a wide enough variety of healthy foods necessary to provide them with the essential vitamins and minerals to maintain their daily performance.  

Boost your vitality and stave off that afternoon lag with a daily habit of adding healthy supplementation to your morning cup of coffee. A powerhouse for your immune system, Liposomal Vitamin C, Immune & Collagen Support (with PureWay-C) (R699), demonstrated enhanced absorption, cellular uptake, and bodily retention in clinical studies as compared to other forms of vitamin C. It simply protects you from the onset of autoimmune disorders, is necessary for collagen synthesis, and maintains capillary and blood vessel integrity, cartilage, and bone health against inflammation. It also relieves endometriosis sufferers while enhancing mood and cognitive brain function. Vitamin C is necessary for collagen supplementation to be absorbed into your system, and PureWay-C is certainly the best combination if you’re looking for rapid absorption. 

Combine it with Now Food’s Super Omega 3-6-9 1000 mg (R449) for a blend of nutritional flax seed, evening primrose, canola, black currant, and pumpkin seed to maintain healthy skin from the inside, normal immune system balance, and proper nervous system function.

Staying healthy and feminine has never been this easy!

 DIGESTIVE HEALTH NOW

Based on our genetic nature, women are more likely to have irritable bowel syndrome and other gastrointestinal (GI) disorders than men. Chronic digestive problems can be a real pain in the gut and interfere with healthy eating habits or worsen quality of life. Food in the stomach tends to empty into the intestines more slowly in women than in men and this sluggish digestion can make women feel nauseas or bloated. Super Enzymes (R599) can offer a comprehensive blend of enzymes to support healthy digestion. It’s formulated with bromelain, ox bile, pancreatin and papain that helps to optimize the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and protein. 

Probiotics are essential for maintaining a healthy gut and preventing and treating digestive problems such as diarrhoea, constipation, irritable bowel syndrome, inflammatory bowel disease, and lactose intolerance. Not only do probiotics balance the levels of good and bad bacteria in our intestines, but they also help us digest certain foods, absorb nutrients, and produce beneficial short-chain fatty acids. Probiotic-10™ (R399) provides ten probiotic strains and is dairy, soy and gluten-free, giving you a balanced spectrum of live organisms to naturally colonise your gut and maintain the integrity of your intestinal lining and detoxification process. Pair it with Now Food’s Optimal Digestive System (R499) of full-spectrum enzymes to further aid the digestion of most foods, including beans and cruciferous vegetables. 

 STRESS & MOOD SUPPORT NOW

When we lack time and energy to get things done, we add further stress to the equation. If crisis management seems to be the order of the day, your nervous system can do with some added reinforcement. Mood Support (R469) with St. John’s Wort, provides the nutrients and herbal extracts needed by your nervous system, helping you hold it all together and be more effective with a positive, balanced mood state that helps you to keep winning. You can also add the tonic effect of Rhodiola 500 mg (R649), which helps you adapt to the stress and naturally support your body’s capacity to cope. Rhodiola has been used since ancient Greek times, providing a trusted adaptogen that has stood the test of time right up until today. 

HER HORMONES NOW


Due to hormones, belly blues and uncomfortable bloating and even nausea is normal during your period. Disruptions in hormonal balance can however have a wide range of other detrimental impacts on the female body and digestive system, especially after pregnancy and giving birth, and affects the metabolism, mood, energy, sleep, and physical performance. DIM 200 (R649) is made with all-natural and high-quality ingredients to help detoxify excess estrogen metabolites and safely restore female endocrine system equilibrium. Restoring hormonal balance also aids in fat burning, increasing energy levels, improving exercise performance, and maintaining a strong, healthy body.

Combine it with Super Primrose 1300 mg (R349), naturally occurring Gamma-Linolenic Acid (GLA), an Omega-6 fatty acid also found in borage and black currant seed oils, to get all the anti-inflammatory and hormone-balancing answers you need to relieve premenstrual syndrome (PMS) symptoms, helping to reduce breast pain, irritability, bloating, and acne associated with PMS.

When you want to start the journey of growing a family together, ensure you start with optimum reproductive health for both you and your partner. Maca (Lepidium meyenii) 500 mg (R379) is an energy tonic for men and women to improve sexual function and desire. Grown in the high Andes mountains of Peru, it’s been used for centuries as a food and medicine, and often referred to as Peruvian ginseng, Maca delivers similar effects as ginseng, including boosting your and your partner’s energy and libido.
