Metagenics Femme Essentials is aWomen's multivitamin with antioxidants. It supports healthy hormone metabolism and contains broccoli sprouts powder.
Femme Essentials contains specific vitamins that may support healthy hormone metabolism. Vitamin B6, B12 and folic acid act as co-factors for enzymes involved in oestrogen metabolism. Femme Essentials also provides 100 mg of broccoli sprout powder (BroccoPlus™) per tablet. Glucosinolates are present in young broccoli sprouts at levels 10 to 100 times higher than in mature plants, making them a rich source of the most potent isothiocyanate, sulforaphane. Sulforaphane is involved in the clearance of reactive oxygen species.
Femme Essentials contains bisglycinate forms of magnesium and iron for higher bioavailability. Femme Essentials provides 5 mg of iron per tablet which may assist in conditions of increased dietary demand such as in vegetarians and the elderly.
Take one tablet daily.
