We all need vital nutrients that the body cannot produce on its own. These include vitamins, but also minerals, plant-based substances and amino acids. We normally absorb these through food. However, it is often sensible to also take dietary supplements. This is an effective way to prevent deficiency symptoms. Personalised vitamins are particularly well suited to this.
At indyvit, we are convinced that you yourself know best which vitamins you need. That's why we give you a choice between many important nutrients. You can mix these yourself into your personal booster in the capsule configurator. You get one convenient capsule per day that gives you all the vital nutrients you need. Read on to find out more about how it works.
Which vitamins do I need?
We all need vitamins every day. They perform essential functions in the body. They support metabolism, strengthen muscles, build up the immune system and reduce tiredness. Most vitamins are found in foods such as fruit and vegetables. But sunlight also provides vitamin D. That's why many of us have a vitamin deficiency, especially in winter.
In addition, in certain situations we have an increased need for particular vitamins. This varies from person to person and depending on individual circumstances. At indyvit, we don't believe in generalised vitamin capsules. Instead, we rely on personalised dietary supplements.
How does a vitamin deficiency show up?
Before you put together your personalised vitamins, you should consider where a deficiency might exist. Even with a balanced diet, vitamin deficiency can occur. This is because many foods don't contain sufficient nutrients. Some people also focus too much on certain nutrients. However, most vital nutrients work together, which is why a one-sided diet is suboptimal.
The body signals when there is a lack of vitamins or minerals. In this country, a deficiency in vitamin D and vitamin B12 is particularly common. The sunshine vitamin D is lacking especially in winter. This is due to the lack of daylight. On top of that, our food generally contains fewer nutrients in winter.
A deficiency in vitamin B12 is also widespread in Switzerland. Vegetarians and vegans are particularly affected. This is because the vitamin is found mainly in animal-based foods.
What speaks in favour of personalised vitamins?
In recent years, the need for individualised medicine has grown ever greater. This is because we all have different lifestyles, eating habits and health starting points. General supplements don't meet these needs. Sometimes they even provide us with too many vitamins and nutrients.
The answer is personalised supplementation. This allows vital nutrients to be tailored to individual people. Factors such as sex, age, constitution, genetics and existing deficiency symptoms are taken into account. Individual complaints and preferences can be considered with personalised vitamins.
Dietary supplements help to replenish the body's vitamin and mineral stores. In capsule form, they supply the body with important substances. By putting together your dietary supplement yourself, you retain full control over all the ingredients. What's more, you only need one capsule a day instead of a whole collection of supplements.
How can I put together personalised vitamins?
At indyvit, we offer you three ways to put together your personalised vitamins. In expert mode you can put together all the vital nutrients you need yourself. You can choose for yourself which ingredients go into your capsule and in what quantity. We also always show you the recommended and the maximum daily dose. So overdosing is never an issue.
If you're not yet very familiar with personalised supplements, our online analysis is the right choice. You answer 15 questions about yourself, your body and your goals. The algorithm behind it then creates the perfect, individual mix for your body.
As a third option, we offer you a blood test. This lets you take a blood sample at home, simply and painlessly. The lab analyses the sample and produces a detailed report. Matching your results, we then create a tailor-made formula recommendation that perfectly suits your needs.
In all our products, we do without colourants, coating agents, stabilisers and binders. You retain full control over the list of ingredients. This way, you only swallow the ingredients you actually need. For your personalised vitamins, you choose the name, the capsule colour, the flavour and the label yourself – full control!
Convinced? Then choose here the path that suits you. You can already look forward to your personalised vitamins!
