September is Menopause Awareness Month and women starting the transition into menopause have more information and resources than ever to start taking control of their menopause symptoms. Bayer Consumer Care now introduces One A Day® Menopause Formula, a complete multivitamin with soy isoflavones to help address hot flashes and mild mood changes.
"It can often be a challenge for women going through this new life stage to get the nutrients they need," said diet and nutrition expert, Madelyn Fernstrom, PhD, CNS. "Even with a healthy diet, supplementation may be needed to get adequate amounts of the nutrients important to this age-group, particularly vitamin D and calcium. This can help support a healthy lifestyle for women as they enter this stage of their lives."
More than two million U.S. women between the ages of 40-58 reach menopause each year. About 70 percent experience menopause symptoms such as hot flashes or mood changes. Women can take a proactive approach to help address the symptoms of menopause by taking One A Day Menopause Formula, which is formulated to help:
- Reduce daytime and nighttime hot flashes
- Address mild mood changes
- Support bone strength with an excellent source of calcium
- Support breast health with Vitamin D
- Support physical energy with high levels of B Vitamins
- Support healthy skin with Vitamins A, C and E
In addition, women going through menopause now have a new resource for information. LIVEMenopause.com is a new website dedicated to providing information about menopause and connecting women to others who are going through this stage of life. All content is created by real women sharing their experiences with other women.
One A Day Menopause Formula is available on shelves nationwide, as well as on www.oneaday.com and will retail for $15.99 - $17.99. A list of retailers that carry One A Day products is also available on the website.
