FAQs

What vitamins should women take daily?

There are essential vitamins and minerals our bodies need in order to function. Ideally, we’d get all of these from our diets, but a good multivitamin will close any dietary gaps, ensuring we get everything we need, every day. Women, especially, should make sure they’re getting enough iron, folate, and calcium. Women can lose iron during menstruation, increasing the need to replenish this critical mineral through diet and/or supplementation.

Women should also take folate, or vitamin B9, which is vital to brain health and can play a key role in supporting a healthy pregnancy.

How to choose a women’s multivitamin that’s right for you.

When looking for a good women’s multivitamin, look for a full range of vitamins and minerals, including all fat-soluble vitamins such as A, D, E, as well as essential water-soluble B complex vitamins and vitamin C. Ideally, your multivitamin will include 100% of the Recommended Daily Value of most of these essentials, ensuring that you’re properly replenishing your body daily. The right multivitamin for you will also provide targeted nutrients for your particular age or stage of life.

For example, if you are pregnant, you’ll need adequate amounts of folate and iron. Not to mention that the multivitamin best for you will come in a form that is easy for you to take—whether that’s a once-daily tablet or gummies, Rainbow Light Multivitamins have you covered.

Are women’s multivitamins good for you?

Women’s multivitamins are good for you since they can help fill in the nutrient gaps from your daily diet. For example, if you are someone who does not consume meat in their diet or has trouble digesting iron-rich foods like legumes and lentils, then a multivitamin can help you consume adequate iron daily. Even though such nutrients from whole foods will provide a more comprehensive profile of vitamins and nutrients, the multivitamin will at least be able to help provide you with adequate amounts of any nutrients you may be missing through meals and snacks.

What are the benefits of taking women’s multivitamins?

The benefits of taking women’s vitamins are that they can help you consume adequate amounts of vital nutrients you may not receive from your daily diet alone. It is important to note though that one cannot live on multivitamins alone. The goal with a good women’s multivitamin is to fill in any gaps and ensure you’re getting the essentials you need to thrive. It’s always a good idea to strive to consume plenty of lean proteins, fruits and vegetables, as well as fiber-rich whole grains in your meals and snacks daily to support good health.

What vitamins are in a multivitamin?

There is not a set standard of vitamins and minerals that must be in a multivitamin product. Therefore, each brand of multivitamin will contain different sets of vitamins and minerals as well as varying amounts of each of them. However, those multivitamin products that market themselves as once daily will try to contain an adequate percentage of the recommended daily value for the most vital nutrients in each dose.

Other multivitamin products may focus on those nutrients vital for specific health goals such as immune health, cellular energy, or heart health, for example. In such cases, those brands will likely not contain all the essential vitamins and nutrients a person needs daily to support whole body health.

For this reason, most people, especially in growing children and teens, should consume most nutrients through whole foods and beverages whenever possible.

What are high potency vitamins?

High potency vitamins are those that contain 100-percent or more of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of essential nutrients, as established by the US Food & Nutrition Board. A multivitamin product can use “high potency” on their label when 75% of them are at or above 100% of the RDA.

What is the difference between men’s and women’s multivitamins?

Multivitamin supplements for women will be slightly different from those specially formulated for men, as women and men tend to have different needs, especially with age. For example, a good women’s multivitamin will likely contain a higher amount of iron than a man’s, since women can lose iron through menstruation. Multivitamins will differ as women and men age.

For example, a 50+ women’s multivitamin may include ingredients to support menopausal and post-menopausal body changes whereas a 50+ men’s formula may provide nutrients to support muscle health.

What are the benefits of Vitamin C for women?

Vitamin C plays a key role throughout a woman’s body, especially as a key antioxidant for immune cell function. It also supports healthy skin. A good women’s multivitamin –even a once-daily multivitamin for women—will include at least 100% of the recommended daily value for vitamin C. It’s critical that this powerhouse be taken daily because it’s water-soluble, meaning that your body will flush out what it doesn’t use each day.

So, while getting vitamin C through your diet is ideal, taking multivitamins ensures your needs will be covered daily.

What vitamins should a pregnant woman take?

A pregnant woman should take a prenatal multivitamin from the moment she is thinking about conceiving to help the body prepare nutritionally for supporting a growing baby. The best women’s multivitamin for a woman who is pregnant or trying to become pregnant is one that contains iron, folate, and calcium to help support mom and her growing baby.

What vitamins and minerals do women need?

Everyone needs a balanced intake of vitamins and minerals each day to support overall good health. And some of these nutrients are especially important for women’s wellness, including B-complex vitamins to promote cellular energy production, vitamin C and zinc for immune health, vitamin D for bone health, and vitamin C to support healthy skin. So, when looking for a good multivitamin for women (and the best women’s multivitamin for you in particular) make sure you choose a formula with these ingredients. Rainbow Light women’s multivitamins feature high-potency amounts (meaning 100% or more of the Recommended Daily Value) of these vitamins and minerals to support the female body through all ages and stages of life, from prenatal to menopause and everywhere in between. And we have the rest of your family covered, too, with specially formulated vitamins for men and vitamins for kids.*

What are the benefits of vitamin D3 for women?

Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is well known for its bone supporting benefits. Specifically, it aids the absorption of calcium and phosphorus from the digestive tract, which can then be used as building blocks to support strong, healthy bones. That’s why it’s widely considered an essential nutrient for women’s health. But vitamin D3 (often called the “sunshine vitamin” because your skin can synthesize it when exposed to sunlight) is an impressive multi-tasker with other important benefits for women (and everybody!), including promoting immune health. That’s why you’ll also find vitamin D3 in Rainbow Light vitamin supplements for men, children and teens.*

What multivitamins are good for menopause?

During menopause, a woman’s body goes through many hormonal and physical changes. Certain women’s vitamins can be especially beneficial during this time of life because they support specific aspects of health commonly affected by these changes. For instance, vitamin D is important as it plays a role in immune function. Black cohosh is another significant ingredient to promote a healthy response to natural changes associated with menopause. Additional nutrients that can support a women’s body during menopause and beyond are magnesium, iron and biotin. You’ll find all of these, plus organic superfoods, probiotics and a unique Women’s 50+ Botanical Blend in Rainbow Light’s High Potency Women’s One 50+ Daily Multivitamin. Better yet? This women’s multivitamin delivers next-level support for healthy aging in just one tablet a day!*
