Adequate intake of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients are proving to protect the health of our bones, teeth, eyes, heart and brain, while supporting the optimal functioning of all of our organs and systems of detoxification and immunity. Research on multivitamin/multimineral supplements show:

• Multivitamin supplements boost brain function, including improved accuracy, focus, memory, mood, stress and general feelings of well-being in as few as twelve weeks (British Journal of Nutrition, 2012)
• Overall, supplements improved the nutrient intake of older adults
• Nutritional deficiencies are a consequence of bariatric surgery for weight loss

Additionally, we must remember that supplementation does not replace a healthy diet: one study found that only about 80% of adults who take a multi met the estimated average requirement for vitamins A, B6, B12, C and E along with folate, iron and zinc–meaning, they weren’t eating a health-supportive menu. To quote Fran Leibowitz, “Food is an important part of a balanced diet!”

Admit it, we’ve all done it. You stroll through the vitamin and supplement aisle of your local grocery or health foods store, searching for the vitamins you need to support your daily routine, and your eye catches the multi-vitamin section… and you skim over them. When we have products for vision health and hair growth and digestive support and bone strength and immune balance, etc, etc, why bother with a multi?

But think of it this way: if you had to choose to eat only ONE beneficial food for the rest of your life–like calcium, which would gift you with strong bones, or beta-carotene, which would improve your vision–OR you could mix it up with a variety of foods that would provide support in ALL areas that your body needs, wouldn’t we all want the varied diet? Now, luckily, there is no one standing in the supplement store at checkout, looking at your basket and saying “Sorry ma’m, you can only pick ONE supplement this week.” But look at multi-vitamins through this same lense: it is the “jack of all trades” supplement.

Our Women’s 50+ Multi-Vitamin is specially formulated by our formulation team to cushion and support all the vital areas that our bodies need, all in one bottle. With everything from Vitamin A and D to supplement what your diet is lacking, to even Broccoli, Tomato, Carrot, and Spinach to give us the vegetable boost that many of us need, we skipped no steps in making sure that our Women’s 50+ Multi-Vitamin helps tackle the everyday challenges that are presented to us–all while feeling great and fueling our bodies for optimal performance.

Simple because we know you’re busy and we know the vitamins and supplements space can be overwhelming. There are so many choices out there, it’s impossible to know where to begin. We want to make vitamins and supplements simple again. We only make the products you really need–no more, no less.

Proactive because, in our society, we tend to treat our bodies once something has gone wrong, rather than taking care of it along the way. Our goal here at Mt. Angel Vitamins is to minimize those times when you have to fix your body because something has happened, and instead maintain wellness proactively through exercise, healthy eating, and self-care.

Wellness because we believe that a person’s wellness is so much more than just physical. It is also emotional, social, financial, and spiritual. Our vitamins and supplements support your physical and mental health, but we want to support you in the other areas of your wellness journey, too.
