Why you need to take Vitamins (Whether you want to or not)

If we are eating healthy, why should we need to take vitamins? We asked ourselves the same question as we considered developing our Hormone + Cycle Balancing Multivitamin. At Ova Moon our vision is that one day you won't need us. That we as a planet will make changes that will allow our bodies to get what they need from the food we are eating. Unfortunately right now that just isn't our reality.

Our food is grown in soil that is not being replenished with nutrients the way it should be due to mono cropping and other large-scare farming methods. Water management practices aren't in place that would keep nutrient rich top soil from washing away into the ocean. The food we eat often travels far distances to get to us and by the time it reaches us, a lot of the nutrients aren't there anymore. (We are big advocates for supporting your local farmer's market!)

Right now, we see Ova Moon as a bridge, a place holder to get us from where we are to where we want to be. The reality of where we are now is that many bodies aren't getting the nutrients they need from the food they eat to function properly, yet alone to thrive. For example, did you know that magnesium is a part of over 300 biochemical reactions in the body?!? AND that if we are stressed our body can increase the amount of magnesium we are excreting from the body. Some studies suggest that 75% of people aren't getting the recommended amount of magnesium their bodies need. At Ova Moon, we chose magnesium as our main ingredient for that reason. It helps decrease stress and helps keeps you functioning properly.

Let us help you help your body! We took our time and really considered what it is that most people who menstruate aren't getting and what is having the greatest impact on the reproductive system. We consulted with 1 Doctor, 2 Chinese Medicine Practitioners, 2 Herbalists and 2 naturopaths over the last two years in or to come up with the best formula that could benefit all bodies. The reality is that we need certain vitamins and minerals daily to be functioning optimally. Join the Ova Moon community today. Just three capsules, once a day and you get most of what your body needs and isn't already getting.
