Each serving of Women's Ultra Mega Heart supplies 800 mg of phytosterols.

Everyday Vitamins for Women
Everyday Vitamins for WomenWhat to combine with good eating to meet your nutritional needs
It's a good idea for every woman to take a daily multivitaminWhile certain nutritional needs can change, some nutrients remain particularly important throughout a woman's life. By eating well, women can get much of what they need, such as protein and fiber, but many can benefit from taking supplements to ensure they get enough of certain essential vitamins and minerals that the diet doesn't always provide in sufficient amounts, such as calcium, vitamin D, and zinc.
A happy family
For starters, it's a good idea for every woman to take a daily multivitamin to get a family of vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C (200 to 1,000 mg per day) and the B-complex vitamins. The B vitamins that are part of this complex are thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin or niacinamide (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), pyridoxine (vitamin B6), biotin, folic acid, and cobalamin (vitamin B12). Most multivitamins will also contain beneficial zinc, vitamin A, and vitamin E for healthy skin and immune function, and to protect against a wide variety of diseases.
The strength is in the bones
A woman's bones need extra care to help preserve bone mass and avoid possible osteoporosis later in life. Body After Baby author and nutrition expert Jackie Keller says "Women need calcium at all stages of life, and we generally don't get enough in our diets through food sources." Look for a calcium supplement that, combined with diet and what you might get in a multivitamin, gives you around 1,000 mg per day, 1,200 if you're over 51. To further protect bones, doctors also recommend supplementing with 400 to 800 IU of vitamin D per day when taking calcium.
Fatty is good
Omega-3 fatty acids are considered essential for the body's health. For women, they may protect against a wide range of conditions, including osteoporosis, heart disease, and depression. Food sources include cold-water fish, walnuts, flaxseeds, and canola oil. Common supplement forms of omega-3s are fish oil capsules (1,000 to 4,000 mg per day) and ground flaxseed (1 tablespoon [15 ml] one or two times a day). You can easily grind your own flaxseeds in a small coffee bean grinder to guarantee freshness.
Freelance writer Terra Wellington makes sure she gets her omega-3s by adding ground organic flaxseed to her cereal every morning.Copyright 2013 Aisle7. All rights reserved. Aisle7.com

Comments about GNC Women's Ultra Mega® Heart:
I discovered this vitamin a little over a year ago and due to its popularity, it can be hard to find when you're on your last few pills. It is also a tad expensive, so I normally buy several when it's on sale. I've found that this vitamin lowers my blood pressure (because of the CoQ10) and gives me a little boost of energy (not over the top though). I would recommend this to anyone that is pre-hypertensive or has a family history of high blood pressure.

Comments about GNC Women's Ultra Mega® Heart:
These vitamins helped me drop my cholesterol by 40+ points! I was so impressed with this product. I take two in the morning and one before I go to bed. My stomach doesn't like to take all three at once.

Comments about GNC Women's Ultra Mega® Heart:
This is an awesome product and I definitely notice more energy once I started using it. Blood pressure readings have been lower and cholesterol has been great. However, after being put on backorder twice and having my order cancelled once, I'm going to have to find another vitamim since they can't/won't keep it in stock. Because of supply issues, I cannot recommend this product.
