Vitamins to Keep You On Track Through Every Season

VITAMINS. Not theĀ most entertaining topic, but definitely something that needs addressing.

In today’s world…we don’t allow ourselves much “free time.” And any free time that is allotted most certainly cannot be filled with unwanted ailments threatening our immune systems.

This is exactly why I do my very best to stay on top of my vitamin intake!

I’d like to think I’m much healthier now than I’ve been in the past, which I have my vitamins and overall awareness to what my body needs to thank for that. But finding the vitamins that work for you and your routine isn’t always the easiest task.

I’ve been at it for a few years now, and I am SO thrilled about my most recent vitamin finds from Swisse.

You may have already seen me post about these on my Instagram, but they deserve a long-form post because they’reĀ that good.Ā 

Not to play favorites or anything…but I’m OBSESSED with theĀ Swisse Vitamin C + Manuka Honey chewable tablets. If you haven’t done your research on Manuka Honey yet, let me get you up to speed: it contains antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant benefits. It’s also been used for wounds, sore throats, oral care, and can even improve digestive issues. You can take it by the spoonful…but if we’re being honest – whoĀ really wants to do that? Not me.

Thankfully Swisse gets it and is here to make our lives a little easier without sacrificing our immune systems’ needs. Combine that powerful ingredient with vitamin C and you have the best chewable tablet that is not only easy to take with you anywhere you go, but dare I say – it’s actually TASTY. I legitimately look forward to taking these vitamins every morning. I kid you not.

I also LOVE the idea that I’m getting two for the price of one! For years I’ve been taking Vitamin C tablets daily. Now, thanks to Swisse I can still have my Vitamin C, but enter stage left Manuka Honey for the ‘standing O.’ I’m never looking back.

Another vitamin I’ve been taking daily for a few months now is Echinacea. It’s a natural herb that has worked so well for me in keeping colds at bay.

After trying it out when I had a terrible cold taking over I realized that I felt a difference almost immediately; I’ve taken it daily ever since and my immune system seems much stronger because of it.

Why am I telling you this? Well – Swisse is at it again with their Immune Forte. They’ve combined a unique blend of the adaptogenic herbs like andrographis, as well asĀ echinacea, and elderflower as well as zinc and vitamin C (!!!) to create this unstoppable immune booster. The best part, you ask? It doesn’t have any additives or sugar hiding in its ingredients! WIN-WIN.

Another product that packs a punch with not just one, butĀ multiple immune strengthening ingredients.

Now that we’ve talked Immune System, it’s time to talkĀ daily multivitamins.

We’re lucky to live in a time where health and wellness is at the forefront of conversation and concerns for many of those around us. I’ve even recently taken up juicing with a daily dose of celery juice.

It’s become a passion of mine to learn more about my body (internal and external) and how it responds to what I put it through on a daily basis. Whether that be with my eating habits, my exercise routine, my makeup regimen, or my environmental surroundings…it all plays into your overall health and wellness.

Though we may all start the day with the greatest of intentions, the truth is that it’s just notĀ that easy to get all of the required vitamins, minerals, and nutrients our body needs to be performing at its best.

Especially when we’re juggling our daily to-do list, a job, a relationship, friendships, work-life balance, exercise, keeping our houses clean, traveling, saving money, thinking about retirement, getting that promotion, treating ourselves, landing that job, calling our friends back, volunteering, making time for spiritual growth, going to brunch, making that coffee date and that happy hour meeting, hanging up all of our clothes on the corner chair, packing a lunch, doing the laundry, washing the dishes, reading books, listening to podcasts, all while practicing self-love and meditating and listening to all the podcasts friends tell you about and finishing that new Netflix original series!!!…YOU GET IT, IT’S A LOT OKAY!?!?

The pressure to do ALL THE THINGS is at an all-time high, and at the end of the day it just gets down right overwhelming to make sure our health is the #1 priority.

But – it should be. Because this is the only body we get…and we’ll be together for hopefully a lonnnnnng time. So we might as well treat it right.

Which is why the simple act of taking a daily multivitamin every morning can work wonders for you and your over-achieving-trying-its-best-to-succeed body.

how to find the right vitamins for me

The Swisse Ultivite is formulated specifically for women and men with adaptogenic herbs that reduce stress and improve mood and energy.

So you CAN do ALL THE THINGS – or at least feel good while you attempt to do all the things.

Either way, it’s something you shouldĀ seriously consider incorporating into your daily vitamin routine.

And thankfully, to encourage you a little more – look how CUTE this pill box is to keep all of these things straight. I MEANNNN, if that isn’t motivation enough…then you need to reclick that link and reread this blog post. Because there are NO EXCUSES. It’s 2019 and it’s TIME for you to take charge of your health, immunity, and overall #MOOD.

  1. I totally agree, I take the Womenā€™s Ultivite everyday along with the Hair and Nails and Grapeseed. My hair was falling out in scary amounts for over a year, after using Swisse Hair and Nails, it stopped falling out and has actually starting growing faster than ever! Womenā€™s Ultivite has changed my level of energy and general well being. I canā€™t wait to try Immune Forte and Vitamin C+Manuka!

    1. That’s AMAZING!! SO crazy how our body responds to different things – so amazing that it helped you!! Hope you like Immune Forte & Vitamin C+! šŸ™‚
