Really impressed and definitely think it's worth the monthly investment."

They are made with naturally-sourced, vegan ingredients from UK suppliers, and each stack consists of seven layers of nutrients. While the subscription service is recommended for optimal results, a monthly supply of personalised vitamins costs £39.99, with a reduced rate of £35.99 per month for subscribers receiving a delivery every four weeks. You can complete the quiz here to build your stack.

Unfortunately, our skin doesn't absorb enough Vitamin D from the sun with the UK climate, so Margo from The Organic Pharmacy advises supplementation for nearly everyone. Vitamin D3 is the most effective form of supplemental vitamin D since our skin naturally produces it in response to sunlight.

Nutri Advanced's 30ml D3 with K2 drops combine this essential vitamin with K2, which contributes to maintaining healthy bones. These orange-flavoured drops can be taken once or twice daily by applying three drops directly to the tongue or in water.

Our review: "I have been on quite the health journey and have seen many naturopaths. The most common consensus I have had from the consultations is that drops are the best way to absorb vitamin D and that the supplement should contain a D3 K2 combination. I was recommended this product by Nutri Advanced three years ago and have never looked back. I believe it has really increased my energy levels and strengthened my immune system."

Boosting vitality, immunity and decreasing inflammation, G Herbal's BODY supplement is an all-rounder to boost your health as well as your mood. Made from a blend of Indonesian herbs traditionally used in Jamu to support your overall well-being. G Herbal ingredients are cultivated in volcanic soils that act as natural fertilisers, rich in macronutrients and minerals. Simply take 2 capsules per day, one in the morning and one in the evening.

Our deputy digital editor Stephanie Spencer tried out G Herbal BODY supplements for herself, here’s how she got on: “I’ve been struggling lately with feeling sluggish and lethargic so was intrigued by this supplement. I liked the fact that it’s all-natural and boosts the immune system too, which is definitely a bonus going into winter. The tablets are tasteless and easy to swallow, I just kept the packet beside the kettle so I’d remember to take it daily. I definitely noticed a difference in my mood and I felt a lot more awake. I also noticed my muscles were aching less, I often struggle with a bad back from sitting at a desk and this was improved. As to the immunity boost, lots of people are getting colds at the moment and I seem to have avoided most of them!”

Margo's research at the Organic Pharmacy clinic found that nearly everyone is deficient in magnesium. This vital mineral deficiency can lead to insomnia, anxiety, and low energy. Their Magnesium Complex are high quality and are formulated with potent minerals such as magnesium, zinc, and calcium to support a balanced nervous system.

It also contributes to healthy muscles, strengthening your bones and immune system, making it an excellent all-around supplement for overall well-being. Magnesium also helps regulate nerve and muscle function, preventing muscle-related issues like spasms and twitches. If you're prone to leg cramps, supplementing with magnesium could be the solution.

Our review: "I take Magnesium every day without fail. It is magic for regulating my nerves and hormones. It is essential when treating all hormonal imbalance issues – including PMS, thyroid conditions, perimenopause, anxiety, and adrenal fatigue. I have also found that it helps control muscle spasms."

Turmeric and ginger are powerful natural ingredients for managing pain and holistically taking care of your body. Nutrition Geeks' tablets are post-box friendly and use minimal plastic packaging for easy storage and for taking with you on the go - plus, they're small and easy to swallow.

In these supplement tablets, the turmeric is activated by black pepper, which aids in reducing inflammation and pain. Research indicates that turmeric can modulate the activation of T cells, B cells, and natural killer cells, enhancing the body's antibody responses. Additionally, ginger relieves upset stomachs and supports healthy digestion, making it a great all-rounder for anyone with digestion and bloating issues.

Our review: "These tablets have been a steady and consistent part of my routine over the last two years. Not only are they great for strengthening your immune system, but turmeric is a powerful antioxidant that supports digestion and helps with bloating and inflammation too. I find them particularly helpful when I am on holiday and indulging, and I feel as though my digestive system and metabolism could do with a little boost. I like this product in particular as it uses turmeric, black pepper and ginger which are all proven to do wonders in Ayurvedic medicine."

This zinc supplement is crafted to support your overall well-being and immune health. Each capsule delivers 15 mg of zinc, an essential mineral that plays a vital role in DNA synthesis, acid-base metabolism, maintaining normal testosterone levels in the blood, and promoting healthy fertility and reproduction. With a 60-day supply, the recommended dosage is one capsule daily, taken with a meal; otherwise, it can cause nausea.

The capsules are small and easy to swallow and are great to take daily or when you are starting to feel sick or under the weather. Zinc has an important role in supporting our immune system, as well as with the production of sex hormones such as testosterone which is often low in women at menopause.

Our review: "These capsules are small and therefore easy to swallow. Plus, they are absolute powerhouses when it comes to illness recovery. I usually take these zinc supplements with some vitamin C, and I find recovery from cold and flu speeds up rapidly. It's a good-value product that does what it says on the tin. Though be warned; you must take this with food as taking this on an empty stomach can cause nausea."

Symprove, one of the top-rated probiotics, boasts a unique water-based formula containing four live bacterial strains. This distinctive feature sets it apart from other probiotics, as the water base prevents triggering digestion, allowing more live and active bacteria to survive the journey through the stomach for optimal gut colonisation.

With each 70ml serving, it delivers 10 billion bacteria to your gut. It is dairy-free, gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian-friendly, and FODMAP-friendly, making it suitable for everyone. Choose from three flavours – strawberry and raspberry, mango and passionfruit, or original – and take 70ml of the water-based probiotic 10 minutes before eating for optimal results.

Our review: "I have been taking Symprove for two years now, and it has become an essential part of my lifestyle and morning routine. In my personal experience, it has done wonders for my gut health. Although it is important to note that probiotics are not, a one size fits all. There are many different strains of probiotics, and this one was compatible with me. If you do not have the same results, do not be disheartened, as there will be one that matches your unique biology."

"Symprove recommends completing a 12-week programme to assess the full results. However, after four weeks, I felt more energetic, my visits to the bathroom were more regular and consistent, and I did not feel as bloated after eating meals. If you have food intolerances, IBS, or digestive issues, I highly recommend giving Symprove a go for those with more severe gut issues, individuals with food intolerances, or those who would like to try probiotics in liquid form rather than in a capsule."

Collagen has many benefits and is the body's most abundant protein, found in skin, cartilage and bones. Our collagen levels naturally decline as we age, which may affect skin elasticity and lead to visible signs of ageing. These award-winning blends from Ancient +Brave are clean and effective. The supplements are sustainably sourced, easy to use and offer targeted nutrition. If you don't eat meat or beef, then they also have a Marine Collagen powder too.

Also, technically speaking, vegan collagen does not exist as collagen is made from the boiling of bones and skin of cows, while marine collagen is made from the boiling of fish scales and bones. This Bovine Collagen is sustainably sourced from pasture-raised bovine from the EU, has no strong taste, is odourless and easy to add to hot or cold drinks or smoothies.

Our review: "This collagen is tasteless and easy to dissolve in any drink. The consistency is great, and is made from high-quality sources of protein made in Britain. They also have a coffee or cocoa collagen for those that would like it integrated into a drink."

Taking a B-complex supplement could also help regulate stress hormones, as B vitamins are used as cofactors in detoxification, which plays an essential role in hormonal health. This UltraEnergy supplement from DR. VEGAN is a high-strength B Vitamin Complex providing sustained energy for your mind and body.

Studies indicate that B vitamins help prevent and help harmonise brain neurotransmitters - Riboflavin activates Vitamin B6, which in turn is used to create serotonin - your happiness hormone. Low serotonin levels can lead to depression, anxiety, headaches and overeating. So don't underestimate the power of B vitamins - especially if you follow a plant-based diet.

Customer review: "I feel my energy levels have risen since taking these, and I'm sleeping much better, too, I didn't know they'd help with sleep, but they do."

Contrary to popular belief, it's not fish that produce omega 3, but algae. The omega 3 in Heights is sourced directly from algae, making it one of the few entirely plant-based brain supplements.

Our review: "Although I have not taken the supplement long enough to report the effects, I can speak to the quality. There are no micro-plastics in the capsule casing, allergens and fillers, caking agents or colourants - just pure brain food."

Ashwagandha is a herb traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries to help relieve stress. The extract enables the body to adapt to environmental and psychological stresses and can be beneficial for calming nervous tension and aiding more peaceful sleep.
