Health over 50
I've always tried to take care of my health by eating right and exercising. I’m also always on the look out for supplements/vitamins that can help slow down the aging process. These are some great finds for anyone--but especially those over 50!
Supplements
Supplements help ensure that we get enough essential nutrients to maintain or improve our health. I believe when you find something that works stick with it! These are my favorites.
This collagen powder is amazing! I add it to my coffee every morning. It has no taste and works wonders to combat cellulite! #Ad
Magnesium glycerinate has so many health benefits, but for me the most noticeable benefit is the improvement in quality of sleep!
Tumeric and ginger are known for their strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. The black pepper helps increase the absorption. I take two of these each morning! #Ad
I started using Gingko Biloba to help with mood and anxiety. However, it has many other benefits too! It can help reduce inflammation, improves circulation & heart health, improves brain function, etc... Ad
Prevagen is a brain health supplement that has been shown to help with brain health and even helps with mild memory loss associated with aging. I take one every night before bed. I also feel like it helps with sleep (maybe the Vitamin D).
Mood and Well-Being
There are so many supplements out there that help support mood and well-being. These are a few that I have tried, love, and use daily.
One a day helps support heathy mood and emotional well-being. I've tried lots of other supplements for this and SAM-E has consistently worked for me! #Ad
These drops help with sleep support, cognitive function, and stress. I sleep better than I have in years! #Ad
Adult focus (ADD/ADHD) is something I have dealt with for years, and it's definitely worsened ewith age! One of these gummies a day definitely helps with focus and mood. #Ad
Multi-Vitamins/Vitamins
A good multi-vitamin can help with immunity, bone support, and heart health. Ritual has vitamins for women over 50, vitamins for men or women over 18, as well as prenatal vitamins and postnatal vitamins.
I've tried lots of multivitamins and these have everything I need all in 2 gel capsules each morning! Also love the auto-ship plan which ensures I never run out. Right now get 40% off all products.
Digestion and Gut Health
After having gall bladder removed, I started looking for good supplements to help with digestion and gut health. These are some of my favorites that I use daily or almost daily.
I recently started mixing this with water in the mornings. It taste great and has truly helped with my stomach issues. *May earn commission
I kept seeing this on TikTok being used for digestive issues, bloating, and weight loss. It's also supposed to be good for those who have had gallbladder removed. I decided to try it and it has definitely helped with bloating and digestive issues. Ad
As we age, fiber becomes an even more important need in our diet. It may be hard sometimes to get enough fiber daily. This peach flavor from Advocare tastes good and is easily mixed.
I also use Miralax once or twice a week as needed. It has not taste and mixes easily with water.
Eye Health
I was diagnosed many years ago with dry eye syndrome. These are a few products that I have found that I can't live without.
I suffer from dry eye syndrome and use Restasis every morning and night. However, my eyes used to still stay red and irritated until I found Lumify. These drops work amazingly to white/brighten eyes! Ad
These eyelid wipes are perfect for anyone, but especially those with dry eye syndrome. Wipes use a combination of oils to help with dry, irritated eyes and keep them clean. #Ad
Restasis was prescribed to me for my dry eye syndrome. I use two drops in the morning and two drops at night. It has become a very important part of my eye health.
This supplement was recommended to me by my eye doctor for my dry eye symptoms. The special combination of Omega-3s, Omega-6s, Omega-9, 400 mg of Borage Seed Oil, Flaxseed and Fish oil are what sets this dry-eye supplement apart from other fish oil s...
