Everyone needs the same vitamins and minerals? That’s not quite true. Of course women and men need a balanced, nutrient-rich diet. But there are also differences between the sexes in terms of physique, hormone balance and other factors. This is why some vitamins and minerals are particularly important for women. The German Nutrition Society (DGE) also differs in its recommendations for some nutrients between men and women. Here you can find out about the most important “women’s vitamins”.
Vitamin D for strong bones
Vitamin D contributes to a normal calcium level in the blood. It supports the bones and the immune system and the body’s defenses. It is therefore worth having your vitamin D level measured from time to time and taking supplements if in doubt. The skin produces vitamin D itself with the help of sunlight, but only under perfect external conditions.
Vitamin B6 and B12 as important women’s vitamins
These two vitamins play an important role in the formation of red blood cells. They also support energy metabolism and the function of the nervous system. According to the DGE, women need more of these vitamins than men, especially during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Folic acid during pregnancy
Folic acid (vitamin B9) is important for all women who are planning a pregnancy. It contributes to the growth of maternal tissue during pregnancy. The first few weeks of pregnancy are particularly crucial, which is why women planning to have children should take additional folic acid in advance.
Iron – a mineral for energetic women
Iron is not a vitamin but a mineral, yet it is particularly important for women. Iron is necessary for the transport of oxygen to the cells. As women regularly lose blood during menstruation, their iron requirement is particularly high. For this reason, we have developed the new SILICIUM FERROFEM, whose ingredients make it a useful supplement to iron intake as part of a healthy and balanced diet.
Silicon
There are specific reasons why women can particularly benefit from silicon. This mineral is involved in the beauty of skin, hair and nails. This is why silicon is often used in the beauty and anti-ageing sector, a concern that is important to many women.
Food supplements or a change in diet?
To provide your body with all the important vitamins, minerals and trace elements, you have two basic options: You can include more foods that contain these nutrients in your diet and you can also rely on dietary supplements. In challenging times, a combination of both approaches certainly makes sense. Varied and nutrient-rich foods are important for your health. With targeted supplements in addition to a healthy diet, you can ensure that you get the most important nutrients.
Our tip: Instead of buying complex multivitamin tablets, it makes sense to take specialized supplements. We have developed our new product SILICIUM FERROFEM especially for women. It contains valuable iron and vitamin C. Vitamin C also ensures that iron can be better absorbed by the body. This product also contains the well-known Bacillus subtilis.
We also recommend our popular food supplement SILICIUM LIQUID, for example, which not only provides you with silicon, but also with vitamin D3 and vitamin K2.
If you want to do even more, SILICIUM PRIME is the perfect food supplement for you. In addition to silicon, it contains vitamin D3 and K2 as well as calcium and magnesium. Choose this targeted support for your health today.
