DESCRIPTION
Optivite® PMT is the first multivitamin - multimineral supplement formulated for use by women with Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS). Available to PMS sufferers over the past 30 years, Optivite® underwent several clinical studies published in peer-reviewed medical journals: 3 open trials (1-3) and 2 double blind placebo-controlled studies.(4,5) A 50% reduction of PMS complaints has been observed in those studies following 1 to 3 months on this supplement. When 313 PMS sufferers were followed for up to 5 years on this program, an interesting observation was that the number of tablets of Optivite required to maintain the improvement in PMS decreased over time:
5.2 + 0.36 tablets between 2 and 6 months
4.8 + 0.6 tablets between 7 and 12 months
4.3 + 0.48 tablets between 13 and 24 months
3.2 + 0.34 tablets over 24 months. (1)
With over 100,000 women on this program during the first 5 years of availability of Optivite®, not a single documented case of Vitamin A toxicity or peripheral neuropathy due to Vitamin B-6 has been reported.(1) Optivite® is recommended as part of a total dietary program to obtain best results.(6,7)
WHY TAKE Optivite® PMT?
Specific vitamins and minerals can reduce your risk of developing PMS and help you better manage the symptoms when they occur.
