Berocca is a popular dietary supplement that many people take every day to help support their overall well-being.
But not everyone is aware of its potential health benefits. According to experts, many underestimate Berocca’s power as a brain food to keep you performing at your best throughout the day.
Kelly Widdop, cluster divisional head for consumer health at Bayer, told Ezimtoti News that Berocca contains a combination of B vitamins, vitamin C, and essential minerals such as magnesium and zinc, which help support energy release, reduce tiredness and fatigue, and contribute to normal mental performance.
“I think as South Africans we are so busy doing many things. We’ve got busy lifestyles. We’ve got work. We’ve got family, and lots of this leads to fatigue,” she said.
“So if you are feeling tired and fatigued, berocca gives you that extra boost just to get through your day. Our clinical trials show that if you use it for 28 days consecutively, it gives you an even better result in terms of mental and and physical performance.”
Widdop said people are always on the go, and when you’re doing more, you actually deplete your body of these vitamins. So it’s always important to make sure that people do have a balanced diet.
“So always look on your plate of food for those green leafy vegetables, your fruit, your vegetables, lots of water to stay hydrated,” added Widdop who also encouraged people to exercise more, sleep more and eat healthier. She said eating plenty of fruits and vegetables daily is important for staying healthy.
