Long working hours? Check.
No time to eat three full meals a day? Check.
Have trouble sleeping? Check.
- And I don’t think I’m the only one…
Work rules your life; everything-else comes in second. And although you’ve had the best intentions to turn your life around – taking time to eat and cook healthily, exercising, and putting in the correct amount of sleep-time – these often end up failing miserably.
Am I right?
Welcome to the Club. And don’t worry, because there is something you can do to help reverse this unhealthy trend.
There are lots of good reasons to take a multivitamin. Even if you do manage to tidy up your act and improve your diet, even the best eating plans can fall short of meeting all of the 40-plus nutrients you need each day. So taking a once-daily multivitamin is an easy way to fill in those nutritional gaps.
But with so many different brands and varieties to choose from, it’s hard to know where to begin. Which is a reason why I personally used to give up altogether and just pray that what I was eating was good enough.
But when I started to notice the increased frequencies in which I was getting ill, catching the flu, and having sleepless nights, I realized that perhaps there was something lacking health-wise.
Yes, I could just blame it on work, but when my better-half began to observe my drop in energy and enthusiasm for life in general, it was a situation which could no longer be ignored.
Many studies have also found that men are less likely to have a healthier eating pattern. We eat less fruits and vegetables, and ahem, also have a higher consumption of alcohol compared to females.
So when Centrum introduced a multivitamin designed just for men, I really couldn’t make any more excuses.
But why a multivitamin specifically for men?
Well, the greatest difference between the genders is that the average guy is bigger in size than the average woman, and so uses up more energy going about his daily activities. And in particular, his higher muscle mass makes it crucial that he receives higher magnesium to ensure proper muscle function.
Turns out that
Centrum for Men is specially formulated for a man’s nutritional support - with the following key benefits: energy release, healthy muscles, and heart function. You could call it the life support system we need to improve total body wellness in a fast paced lifestyle.
Complemented with a variety of B-vitamins to promote cell metabolism, and along with a higher zinc content, Centrum helps boost a guy’s vitality ensuring he has enough energy to conquer his grueling day. A higher number of body cells, due to body size and muscle mass also mean that the demand for Vitamin E is higher to protect against oxidant attacks.
Like its female counterpart, it contains 24 essential vitamins and minerals, complete from A to Zinc – but these are offered in different proportions to cater to each gender’s needs.
After a couple of weeks of taking
Centrum for Men daily – c’mon it’s just one pill a day; (how easier could it be to stick to a health plan!) – I can honestly feel an improvement in my total body wellness – and I’ve certainly got more energy to deal with the stresses of work. I also have it from a very reliable source, that I’m no longer such a grouch in the mornings either!

Centrum for Women: A review by LADY@LXG
While
a balanced diet is important for every woman to look and feel her
best, how realistic is it for us, in this day and age, to get all the
nutrients that we require through our diet? Most of us get through the
day by mainlining huge doses of caffeine. This is why I am a huge fan of
supplements; multi vitamins in particular!
What makes
Centrum for Women
special, is that this new complete multivitamin, is
formulated to address the unique nutritional demands of today’s woman.
You know, the sort that works her butt off at the office, mainlining
espressos as she dodges a mine-field of back-stabbing colleagues and
demanding clients, then gets home, only to play master chef, seductress
and super mummy to her two-legged or four-legged offspring, making it a
tad bit impossible for her to fit in her daily dose of assorted fruits
and veges.
In
Centrum for Women you’ll
find more calcium, magnesium and vitamin D
– which help with bone health – as well as over 20 other important
nutrients based on the latest findings in nutritional science. So what
you essentially get is a supplement that is custom made for us women,
how awesome is that!
In the past, I used to pop between 10 to 15 tablets a day. But now, thanks to
Centrum for Women
one tablet with food together with my oral sunscreen capsule is all I
need to keep me going for the day. Most importantly, it leaves me with a
sense of security, especially when I forget to include greenery in my
diet.
Centrum for Men and
Centrum for Women both retail at $42 for 60 tablets, so go grab yourself a bottle today!
