Women's health can truly feel like a minefield. Whether you're a fresh-faced teen, a 20 or 30-something starting to think about kids, a peri-menopausal 40-something (it's me, hi!) or anything in between, it's safe to assume you're bombarded with health and wellbeing advice on a daily basis.
In addition to the bewildering amount of jargon and opinions out there, there's a whole world of supplements promising to revolutionise everything from our gut health to our sleep, energy, focus and more. But there's also a hefty price tag attached to the supplements market, with recent surveys estimating the UK supplement scene alone is worth a staggering USD 4.79 billion (2024 figures).
This being said, there is some evidence that those pills, powders and gummies can positively influence our health: this 2020 study (from the journal Nutrients) shows they can be effective in enhancing cognitive function and reducing mental and physical fatigue, while other studies (such as this randomised controlled trial, published in the British Medical Journal) reveal the use of specific supplements can reduce the risk of developing auto immune diseases.
Science aside, though, supplements remain a highly popular way of boosting health and wellbeing, but one thing is clear: we need to be taking the highest quality stuff we can get our hands on. And that's where iHerb comes in. A global online health and wellness retailer, iHerb is your one-stop shop for all your wellbeing needs. With free shipping (when you spend over £35 - not tricky to do!) to more than 180 countries and stocking around 50,000+ products, it's easy to see why iHerb is leading the market for supplements right now.
One range we've seen all over social media? Lemme. You've probably heard of it: the brainchild of reality TV star turned entrepreneur Kourtney Kardashian, the brand offers supplements (in the form of capsules or their viral gummies) specifically formulated to address a plethora of women's health issues. And the place to get them? You guessed it: iHerb stocks all 20+ products, and I've given them a try. Keep scrolling for my honest thoughts on the ones I've tried.
Keen to try Lemme supplements but not sure where to start? Here's my take, after trying some
A gummy that promises healthier hair, skin and nails and a lit-from-within glow, these promise to be packed with biotin, collagen and pro-retinol (all the beauty buzzwords). Coming in a peach-flavour, these sweet lookalikes are a simple way to up your beauty game.
Struggling to drink your greens? Greens powders really aren't for everyone, and while we always advocate a food-first approach to nutrition, these handy gummies have certainly helped me to feel like I'm still hitting my nutritional goals when life gets hectic. Formulated with over 20 fruits and vegetables (including kale, wheatgrass, spinach and mangosteen) alongside probiotics, the gummies promise to help support gut health, too.
Our hair is truly our crowning glory, and a thick, shining mane is a marker of good health. That said, many women have times when our hair is lacklustre at best, or even shedding at a rate of knots (see what we did there...). Whether this is due to hormones, nutrient deficiencies or even a thyroid imbalance, these gummies promise to promote a healthier scalp, reduce shedding, boost shine and promote growth when taken over twelve weeks.
