Growing old’s no joke, all. And while I continue to exercise on a regular basis, I find I’m not as spry as I used to be. Since turning 40, I’ve been well aware of my age and I strive to remain healthy and do all I can to remain as healthy as I can.
And I’m not just talking about today but long term care. At a certain point, you start to become more cognitive of where you are in life and you have a choice on how to care for yourself. My choice is to be the best I can be – if not for my children and being there with them through every milestone as they grow into adulthood – but for myself as well.
I didn’t do much to take care of myself when I was younger – when you’re young you feel like you’re invincible, and that you have an endless amount of time. Today, I look at life through a pair of wiser (and older) glasses, I am focused on a daily routine to keep myself healthy and strong physically and mentally. We all do the best we can – no body’s perfect! – but taking vitamins can definitely give you an advantage.
In working with Nature’s Bounty for this post, I tried a few of their vitamin products and found a few favorites. I’m sure you’ve heard of Nature’s Bounty as they are a leading vitamin brand. They have pretty much everything you could want in terms of vitamin products but here’s 3 I have found myself intrigued to continue taking:
Natures Bounty Fish Oil: Supports cardio and circulatory health.* We’ve all heard the benefits of fish oil, and heart health is especially important as we age.
Natures Bounty Lutein Blue: Did you know that digital devices emit high amounts of the high energy blue light which may induce oxidative stress to the eyes? Natures Bounty Lutein Blue is a unique eye health supplement that helps filter damaging blue light from electronic devices.*
I was particularly interested in Lutein Blue as I had been reading up on it for awhile now. I’m on my computer daily for work, not to mention extra time spent on various devices. I think we all can understand that’s something our parents didn’t have. What will be the long term effects of our screen usage? Time will tell but knowing there’s a vitamin out there that can potentially combat the problems caused increased screen time is a good thing in today’s modern world.
Natures Bounty Adult Multi Gummy: A delicious way to get the nutrients your body needs. Each serving provides 100% Daily Value or more of four key B Vitamins, Vitamin C and Vitamin D to keep you going while supporting your immune system and promoting bone health.*
Traditionally, I have not been diligent about taking a daily vitamin. I even had a tough time when I was pregnant – I remember I had to switch prenatal brands around a bit because they caused headaches and nausea. I even tried an “over 50” daily vitamin for awhile (I’m not over 50!) just to see if it would be better but it wasn’t. I’ve always been sensitive to the daily vitamin but something about these gummies have been great for me.
At the end of the day, we all just want to live a long happy and healthy life. That doesn’t come naturally – we have to work towards good health and taking vitamins to help strengthen ourselves is an easy way to help us on this journey. Why wouldn’t we be all for vitamins if they help us maintain our long term health?

Whit-thanks for article- very beneficial and important. I take NB Lutein for that exact reason as well. I also had my glasses coated(not inexpensive!) to filter out the blue light. Both have made a world of difference. My eyes were getting ‘tired’. Even experienced headaches. Both the lutein and the newly coated glasses have made a difference.
Also take many more Nature’s Bounty supplements.
