It’s the same every single year. Come January we’re all saying “new year, new me” and are preparing for a healthier lifemy.

Now that the festive fun is all over, we all need a little boost, especially as we’re broke and summer seems a lifetime away! But Nutravita natural health and beauty supplements are on hand to help you beat the January blues.

Three of Nutravita’s supplements which are perfect for your winter needs are Vitamin B12, Vitamin D3 and Ashwagandha.

It has been suggested that vitamin B12 and other B vitamins play a role in producing brain chemicals that affect mood and other brain functions. Low levels of B12 and other B vitamins such as vitamin B6 and folate may be linked to depression.

Another cause for us all feeling down is due to the darker days and lack of sunlight. According to the National Institute for Healthcare and Excellence, one in five adults in the UK are deficient in Vitamin D which is naturally derived from the sun. A deficiency can cause symptoms ranging from tiredness, weight gain, depression, muscle weakness, aching bones, hair loss and even lead to osteomalacia, a softening of the bones.

And finally, Ashwagandha is a powerful herb used in alternative medicines that has been used for centuries in India to help promote wellbeing. Recent studies have found that Ashwagandha may help alleviate the symptoms of depression.

But as with anything of a health or medical nature, Nutravita advises people to consult their doctor if they have any health concerns.
