Why Should You Take Multivitamins If You Have PCOS ?

by andMe Bioactive Beverage 01 Oct 2021

[article]

PCOS is a tricky health condition that is observed in young adult women of reproductive age. It is a condition which neither has a cause nor a cure. Women who are diagnosed with PCOS are mostly well-read. We have to know about everything that we can do to reverse the symptoms and regulate periods. 

PCOS and diet 

There are various symptoms associated with PCOS such as insulin sensitivity, low metabolism, difficulty in losing or gaining weight, hair loss, unhealthy skin, and digestive complaints. These are symptoms that appear because of some underlying reason and therefore cannot be treated superficially. Despite what a lot of cosmetic products claim, these symptoms can be controlled with your diet and lifestyle more than anything. If you are wondering why diet is focussed upon so much, it is for the nutrients that it provides – energy, nutrients like a variety of vitamins and minerals, that not only nourish your body but also help in controlling and managing the symptoms of PCOS. 

Having said that, women diagnosed with PCOS will also know that diet and lifestyle modifications are the only way to control the symptoms and regulate periods. When we talk about diet and eating healthy, what should be focussed on is the quality of nutrients and essential nutrients for PCOS. Vitamins have a wide range of functions, right from immunity to mental health, they play a crucial role in health and wellbeing. Certain vitamins play an important role when it comes to PCOS symptoms.

Take a look at some main vitamins for PCOS and their function

  • Vitamin D  – Vitamin D that most of us are deficient in, plays a crucial role in metabolism and regulation of weight. A deficiency of this vitamin may lead to difficulty in losing weight, thus aggravating the symptoms of PCOS. It also plays an important role in insulin regulation. It helps to control blood sugar levels by regulating the function of insulin. 
  • B vitamins – B vitamins are most important when it comes to PCOS. They are responsible for preventing old hormones from accumulating in the body. They help to excrete the old hormones. 
  • Vitamin B2 – Vitamin B2 which is also known as riboflavin, is responsible for improving metabolism. It enhances the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates, and protein and improves metabolism. 
  • Vitamin B3 – This vitamin is also known as Niacin. Vitamin B3 is an important part of the glucose tolerance factor which is responsible for controlling the blood sugar that is released after consuming food. This vitamin helps in regulating blood sugar levels. 
  • Vitamin B5 – Vitamin B5 is also known as pantothenic acid. This vitamin plays an important role specifically in the metabolism or breakdown of fat. Not only that, but it is also important for a healthy digestive tract and healthy skin and hair. 
  • Vitamin B6 – Also known as Pyridoxine, vitamin B6 along with the other B vitamins plays an important role in Thyroid hormone regulation. It is also said to reduce mental health issues like stress, anxiety, and depression.
     

Do you meet your nutrient requirements every day?

How often do you happen to check if you are meeting your nutrient requirement every day? Even if you had to, it is a little difficult to check if you have had enough vitamin B3 every day, isn’t it? I agree. You cannot possibly check it for every nutrient, and so most of us land up with deficiencies. It is through the symptoms of deficiencies that we realize we are not meeting our daily requirements. The only way to make sure you are consuming enough nutrients, focus on a clean diet, include plenty of vegetables, fruits, whole nuts, and whole grains in your diet. 

We lead a busy lifestyle, in case you are not able to pay attention to your diet, or you are not incorporating enough sources of these vitamins and minerals in your diet for whatever reason, there is a fair chance of you being deficient in these vitamins. A deficiency of any of these vitamins can aggravate the symptoms of PCOS. In such cases, multivitamin supplements are the best resort to make sure you are consuming all the essential vitamins. 

Multivitamin supplements are also a good way to make sure you meet your requirements. Especially if you are not able to include a lot of fruits and vegetables in your diet. andMe has brought to you a multivitamin supplement the andMe Women’s Multivitamin Capsules which are a blend of vegetables and herbs that provide more than 18 essential nutrients for women.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
