Frequently Asked Questions
A women's specific formulation emphasises nutrients where women have higher needs or deficiency risks: iron (menstrual losses), folate (reproductive health and fetal development), calcium and D3 (bone density maintenance), Biotin (hair and nail health), and B6 (hormonal balance and PMS support).
Most women's multivitamins include 14–18mg of iron — the RDA for premenopausal women. If you have heavy periods or diagnosed iron deficiency anaemia, a dedicated iron bisglycinate supplement provides better therapeutic doses than a multivitamin alone can deliver.
A comprehensive multivitamin covers your micronutrient bases and prevents deficiencies. However, therapeutic doses of individual compounds (omega-3, collagen, magnesium, vitamin D) exceed what a standard multi contains. Use the multi as your foundation and add targeted supplements for specific health goals.
Take it with your largest meal of the day. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) require dietary fat for absorption, and B vitamins are better tolerated on a full stomach. Splitting the dose morning and evening (if the serving is 2 capsules) improves absorption of water-soluble vitamins.
Supplement Labs' women's formula may not provide the higher folate dose (400–800mcg) required during pregnancy, nor the specific iron and DHA levels recommended for prenatal nutrition. Pregnant women should use a dedicated prenatal multivitamin formulated for pregnancy requirements.
