| Why has Wellwoman® 50+ been developed? |
| Wellwoman® 50+ is a comprehensive formula of 27 nutrients and bioactive elements, scientifically developed for the special requirements of women over the age of 50, because in later life nutritional needs change and become even more important. Research has shown that vitamins and minerals can help boost immunity in the over 50s and protect against infection. The right nutrition can also help prevent against memory loss, maintain energy levels and protect against poor circulation. Wellwoman® 50+ includes all the major vitamins and minerals including vitamins C and E, citrus bioflavonoids, and natural carotenoids, which may play an important role in protecting the body during mid and later life. Wellwoman® 50+ also contains iron, folic acid and vitamins B6 and B12 for healthy blood. [Top] |
| When is Wellwoman® 50+ recommended? |
| Wellwoman® 50+ is a daily nutritional safeguard for women in their 50s, 60s and beyond, to help maintain good health and vitality. There is no maximum length of time over which Wellwoman® 50+ may be used. [Top] |
| Can Wellwoman® 50+ be used simultaneously with medications? |
| Generally, Wellwoman® 50+ may be used along-side medications because it contains only moderate levels of vitamins and minerals, and it is free of any drugs or hormones. For specific advice on taking Wellwoman® 50+ with medicines, we recommend that you contact your doctor or pharmacist first.[Top] |
| How
many tablets does one pack of Wellwoman 50+ contain? |
| Wellwoman 50+ contains 30 tablets per pack. It is
recommended to take one per day. [Top] |
| How and when should Wellwoman® 50+ be used? |
| One tablet per day is recommended, with or immediately after your main meal, with a full glass of water or a cold drink. Taking the
tablet with a large meal maximises the absorption of the nutrients, and can reduce nausea, which is sometimes experienced if multivitamins are taken on an empty stomach. Wellwoman® 50+ should only be taken on a full stomach. Always ensure that Wellwoman® 50+ is taken with plenty of liquid to wash the
tablet down, and not tea or coffee as this may cause the
tablet to disintegrate too early. [Top] |
| Are there any undesired effects whilst taking Wellwoman® 50+ ? |
| Wellwoman® 50+ has no known side effects when taken as directed. Do not exceed the recommended
tablet intake. In case of overdose, seek medical advice immediately. [Top] |
| What are the active ingredients? |
| Wellwoman® 50+ contains the following active ingredients per
tablet: Lutein Esters 2 mg; Green Tea Extract 20 mg; Phosphatidycholine 10 mg; Co-Q10 2 mg; L-Carnitine 10 mg; Alpha Lipoic Acid 20 mg; Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex 10 mg; Natural Mixed Carotenoids 2 mg; Vitamin D (as D3 200 IU) 10 mcg; Vitamin E (Natural Source) 15 mg; Vitamin C 60 mg; Thiamin (Vitamin B1) 14 mg; Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) 4 mg; Niacin (Vitamin B3) 30 mg; Vitamin B6 10 mg; Folacin (Folic Acid) 500 mcg; Vitamin B12 5 mcg; Biotin 50 mcg; Pantothenic Acid 6 mg; Iron 10 mg; Magnesium 25 mg; Zinc 15 mg; Manganese 0.5 mg; Copper 1000 mcg; Selenium 120 mcg; Chromium 75 mcg [Top] |
| How long does it take before experiencing any benefit? |
| Results vary amongst individuals, but in most cases we would expect the beneficial effects of the vitamins and minerals in Wellwoman® 50+ to build over several weeks, with noticeable results in one to three months. A regular intake is recommended. [Top] |
| Is Wellwoman® 50+ recommended with any other Vitabiotics' product(s)? |
| Calcium is an essential mineral, and important for the maintenance of strong bones in both men and women, especially in later years. However, calcium has not been included in the Wellwoman® 50+ formula, since it is not possible to include the right amount in one small
tablet, and secondly calcium is known to inhibit the absorption of iron and trace elements. Rather than including just a token amount of calcium, Wellwoman® 50+ has therefore been designed so that it can be used with Vitabiotics' Osteocare® tablets, fizz or liquid. For best results we recommend they be taken at separate times of the day, at least an hour apart. [Top] |
