Women’s Health Month: Celebrate With These Wellness Finds

Aging might be inevitable, but feeling your best every day is absolutely within reach. Now more than ever, the right tools and habits can help you stay strong, energized and ready for whatever life brings. Below, we’re highlighting some of the best (and easiest) ways you can improve your overall well-being in honor of Women’s Health Month. Whether you’re looking to strengthen your body, ease everyday aches, or simply lighten your mental load, these wellness picks are here to support you.

Products with a focus on women’s health

Satisfy your body’s protein needs

It is SO important for women over 40 to increase their protein needs. The average woman needs roughly .7 grams of protein per pound of her weight. But over 40, especially in menopause, a woman’s protein needs increases to 1.2 grams per pound of their weight. This is due to muscle loss and a decrease in metabolism. Help meet your protein goals with protein from brands like Chike, who offers high protein coffee and protein tea, Clean Simple Eats, and Perelel.

Protect your feet

Help maintain the strength and support your feet need with Dr. Scholl’s® 24-Hour Energy Multipurpose Insoles. Each contains thousands of energy-boosting foam beads in a flexible gel that give your feet an extra boost of support where and when you need it. But don’t stop there — wearing these insoles in the right shoe can also make all the difference. Vivobarefoot is a shoe designed to promote better posture, natural movement and stronger feet. In fact, wearing Vivos for six months can increase your foot strength by 60%.

Take a multi-vitamin designed for women your age

With 22 vitamins and minerals plus real food and herbs to support women 40 and above, MegaFood’s Women’s 40+ One Daily Multivitamin is beloved by over 1,800 Amazon shoppers. They’re pills (not capsules) that are easy to swallow and some can even take them on an empty stomach without adverse side effects. One shopper calls them the “best multivitamin” she’s ever taken — “I definitely feel the difference in energy when I take them!” And if you’re expecting (because about 20% of women are having their first kids later in life), Healthybaby has prenatal vitamins made with bioavailable nutrients formulated by leading experts and backed by over 350 studies.

Offload tasks where you can

Women are busy and allocating tasks to others can be a big help. If you’re anything like me and dread a trip to the grocery store, simplify that task with a subscription to Thrive Market. As a member, you get access to thousands of rigorously vetted products (we restrict 1,000+ ingredients). They come shipped with carbon-neutral delivery directly to your doorstep. But the best part is Thrive Market’s Price Matching Guarantee program — if you find a product you love in store for less, they’ll refund you the difference!

Aim to get a good night of sleep

Set yourself up to succeed with bedding that’ll keep you cool and comfortable all night long. Momcozy’s Cooling Comforter feels so cool to the touch without being overly heavy. Pair that with these cooling bamboo sheets from DOZ for a match made in heaven. When I get hot but still want to be under the covers, I lay in these sheets with the fan on and it creates a cooling effect that doesn’t sacrifice my comfort.

And if you have trouble getting to sleep, Ritual’s time-released melatonin is one of my favorite supplements. It’s essenced with vanilla for a delightful taste and only has 5 mg of melatonin to support your natural sleep and wake cycle.

Stay attuned to your body’s changing needs

We can track everything in this modern age, including perimenopause and menopause symptoms thanks to fertility tracking brand Mira. According to Mira’s survey, 47% of people started experiencing perimenopause or menopause symptoms between ages 35 and 45 and over half didn’t even know there are 34 symptoms of menopause. Mira helps connect the dots with the Menopause Transitions Kit. It measures four key reproductive hormones — FSH, E3G, PdG, and LH — over time, giving you a clearer picture of how your hormones are shifting rather than just offering a one-time snapshot like most tests.
