According to a study from Popular Science, 13 percent of U.S. adults said they felt tired or exhausted. This national fatigue might be linked to not getting enough vitamin D, vitamin B12 or omega-3 fatty acids.
However, consumers are often confused by dietary supplement choices and uncertain about what is and isn’t necessary for optimal health. To help, Country Life Vitamins (Hauppauge, NY) has curated a list of the “must have” supplements for 2025.
According to the company, vitamin D is essential for building and maintaining healthy bones and other cellular functions in the body. Vitamin C is needed for growth and repair of tissues and is a powerful antioxidant. B vitamins are critical as they are needed for metabolic processes and keeping the brain and body functioning optimally.
Minerals are also essential, according to the company. Calcium is needed for building and maintaining healthy bones, joints and teeth, iron helps the produce hemoglobin and magnesium supports muscle and nerve function, blood pressure regulation, blood sugar control, energy production, protein synthesis, bone density and DNA repair, the company stated.
Omega-3 fatty acids are also key. They are needed to build cell membranes throughout the body and affect the function of cell receptors. They can prevent heart disease and stroke, may control lupus, eczema and rheumatoid arthritis, and may play protective roles in cancer and other conditions, according to the company.
Finally, pre- and probiotics are essential for keeping the microbiome balanced, which plays an important role in digestion, metabolism and overall well-being, according to the company. By nourishing beneficial bacteria, prebiotics can help support vital functions in the body, to help promote health from the inside out.
“Country Life Vitamins’ wide array of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients offer consumers a one-stop shop for what they need through all stages of life to maintain optimal health,” said Sharon Paguio, head of marketing at Country Life. “We know how important it is to trust the source of supplements, which is why we’re proud to offer multiple certifications and we innovate products based on consumer and scientific research.”
