As the seasons change and life gets busier with school schedules, work commitments, and holiday preparations, taking time to support our health can help us keep up with the demands of the season. 

Whether you’re looking to support immune health, cellular energy levels, sleep, or focus, certain supplements can help during these high-energy times.* 

1. Immune Health

Busy seasons often bring extra exposure to seasonal challenges that can impact immune health. Here are some top supplements for immune support.

  • Zinc: Zinc is an essential mineral that aids immune system function, helping to support your body during high-demand times.* It helps support over 300 enzymes in the body and plays a role in DNA synthesis, essential cell division and growth.*  Puritan’s Pride Zinc makes it easy to help ensure you get the zinc you need.

2. Sleep Health

Sleep is vital for well-being and maintaining energy throughout the day. However, a packed schedule can make restful sleep challenging. For those who need extra support for a good night’s rest, these supplements may help.*

Keeping cellular energy levels steady and stress under control is crucial during the busiest seasons. Here are some supplements to help maintain energy and manage stress.

4. Brain Health and Focus

When it’s essential to stay sharp, supplements may provide extra help during busy seasons.*

  • NEURO-PS® GOLD™: Puritan’s Pride Neuro-PS® GOLD™ is formulated with Phosphatidylserine (PS), a naturally occurring component in brain cells that aids neurotransmitter release and brain function.* This supplement also contains ginkgo biloba, another ingredient known for its support of cognitive health.* With aging, PS levels may decline, so Neuro-PS® helps replenish this important compound, supporting a healthy mind and mental function.*

With special attention to your well-being, supplements can provide added support through busy seasons. Remember, consult your healthcare provider before starting any supplement, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
