These days, many women are ready to take charge of their health in new ways. From teenage years through menopause and into older adulthood, there are growing trends and tools that can help females feel stronger, more balanced, and more confident. Let’s look at some of the big themes you’ll see through the rest of 2025 and into the new year, and what women can do to stay healthy in body and mind. 

Building and Keeping Muscle 

As women age, muscle naturally declines—this can start as early as the 30s and gets more noticeable during menopause. Strong muscles help with balance, mobility, metabolism, and even bone health.1

What’s Trending: 

  • Strength training programs for all ages. Women are lifting weights, using resistance bands, doing bodyweight workouts, or wearing weighted vests to help build muscle and maintain bone strength.2 Many are also adding creatine into their daily lives as it supports lean muscle tone and helps you get the most from your workouts. 
  • High protein diets with plant-based or mixed sources. Protein helps repair muscle after exercise and supports overall strength. Many are choosing protein from sources like beans, tofu, lean meats, fish, protein shakes, protein drinks like Clear Protein, or supplements.  
  • Focus on moving regularly – walking, stair-climbing, squatting, etc. It’s not just about going to the gym; it’s also about everyday movement.3 Quick tip: next time you go to the store, don’t try and get the closest spot. Park farther away and add in those extra steps. 

 

Menopause & Hormonal Health 

More women are paying attention to the transition into perimenopause and menopause, not just to manage symptoms, but to stay healthy overall. 

Trends here include: 

  • Comprehensive menopause care: This means dealing with hot flashes, mood changes, sleep issues, bone density, weight gain, etc., not just one symptom.4 
  • Natural and lifestyle-based options, along with medical treatments like hormone replacement therapy (HRT). Women are also exploring herbal supplements, diet changes, exercise, stress management, hormone-free supplements like Harmonia, and sleep improvements.  
  • Tracking tools and personalized plans: Apps that help monitor menstrual cycle changes, symptoms, and hormone shifts are growing in popularity. These help women understand what’s happening in their bodies and respond proactively.5 

 

Key Nutrients to Pay Attention To 

Getting the right nutrients is more important than ever. As women age and go through different phases (teen, childbearing, menopause, post-menopause), their nutritional needs shift. Experts are calling attention to nutrients many women are missing.6 

  • Protein – for muscles, repair, immune health. 
  • Vitamin D – especially over age 60 or during/after menopause, to support bones, muscles, immune system.  
  • Calcium – for bone health, especially when estrogen levels decline. 
  • Omega-3 fatty acids – reduce inflammation, support heart and brain health. Fatty fish, flaxseed, walnuts are good sources. You can also get your omega-3 fatty acids from supplements like PuraPlant 21TM.  
  • Fiber – helps digestion, can reduce risk of chronic diseases, keeps gut health strong. Many women still don’t get enough.  
  • Minerals & vitamins for hair health – Vitamin D, iron, zinc, biotin (B7), vitamin C, folic acid (B9), vitamin E. Deficiencies in these are increasingly connected to hair thinning and loss.  
  • Collagen – protect against the damaging effects of photoaging with collagen supplements like Collagen ElixirTM. 

 

Digestive & Gut Health 

Digestion is showing up as a major thing women are trying to improve in 2025. Why? Because gut health affects so many parts of health: immune system, hormone balance, mood, skin, and more. 

What’s new: 

  • Probiotics, prebiotics, fermented foods are widely used: yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, kombucha, etc. These support good bacteria in the gut. Another option is Triotic™, a daily probiotic for digestive health and immune support. 
  • Gut microbiome testing is becoming more available. This means you can learn what kinds of bacteria live in your gut and adapt your diet accordingly.  
  • Reducing foods that irritate digestion, such as overly processed items, too much sugar, or foods that cause individual sensitivities (gluten, lactose, etc.). Also, stress and poor sleep hurt digestion, so many are taking broader wellness steps.  

 

Hair Loss & Hair Health 

Hair and scalp health are big concerns, especially during major hormone changes like perimenopause and menopause. Many women notice thinning, shedding, and slower growth.  

Here’s what’s trending: 

  • Checking for nutrient deficiencies early. If you’re low in iron, vitamin D, or certain B vitamins, hair health can suffer.  
  • Using supplements or topical treatments for hair support like Hair Revival. Things like biotin, zinc, vitamin E, and collagen are often used. Also, treatments like minoxidil may be recommended. 
  • Looking at hormone-based or hormone-friendly care. Because hormone levels affect hair growth cycles. For example, during menopause, changes in estrogen and androgens can impact hair. 
  • Gentle hair care routines: less heat damage, gentler products, reducing chemical treatments. These practices help protect existing hair while you work on regrowth. 

 

Other Trends & Big Picture Health 

Some broader wellness trends tie into all of the above. They help round out what “being healthy” means for women of all ages. 

  • Wearable tech & personalized health tracking: Tools that track sleep, stress, hormone cycles, activity, and more. These give feedback so you know what works and what doesn’t.  
  • Mind-body wellness: Stress, anxiety, and mental health are linked to symptoms like digestive trouble, weight gain, sleep loss, hair loss, etc. Practices like meditation, yoga, breathwork, sleep routines, and even digital detox are being emphasized more. Products like Renewal Sleep Support™ and Adaptogen Elixir can also help with sleep and stress. 
  • Holistic care for menopause: Combining therapies—medical, lifestyle, nutrition, fitness—to support women through this transition. It’s not just about managing hot flashes anymore; it’s about long-term wellness, quality of life, bone strength, mood, and brain health.  
  • Sustainable and clean living: Women are increasingly caring not just about what they put in their bodies, but what their beauty products contain, what the packaging is like, whether supplements are ethically sourced, etc. Also avoiding endocrine disruptors (chemicals that can interfere with hormones).7

Teens & 20s Building strong bones and muscles; establishing good habits; hormonal balance. Eat enough protein, calcium, vitamin D; strength training; sleep well; address acne, menstrual issues; limit processed sugar.

Prioritize muscle strength; get enough vitamin D, calcium, protein; explore menopause care options; take care of sleep; manage stress; check for nutrient deficiencies; consider skin & hair supportive care.

What to Watch Out For & What’s New 

  • Weighted vests are gaining popularity among menopausal women: wearing them while walking or doing daily work gives extra resistance, helping build muscle and bone strength with less worry about heavy lifting injuries.  
  • Advances in supplements targeted at menopause: brand-new formulations with more research, herbal mixes, hormone-friendly or hormone-free options like Harmonia, etc. But always check for safety and talk with a healthcare provider.  
  • More women are asking for labs & nutrient testing: rather than guesswork, more people are getting blood work or nutritional tests to see what they actually lack (e.g. iron, vitamin D, thyroid) so they’re not working blind. 
  • Holistic gut & hormone connection: Understanding how gut health influences hormones and digestion is growing fast. For example, the gut-vaginal microbiome axis is more discussed now.8 

 

Bottom Line 

In 2025 and beyond, women’s health is increasingly personalized, science-based, and holistic. Whether you’re building strength, managing menopause, wanting better digestion, or dealing with hair loss, there’s more help and knowledge than ever. 

If you want to feel your best, start with: 

  • Eating enough high-quality protein and essential nutrients 
  • Staying active and including resistance training 
  • Monitoring your hormone health and getting help where needed 
  • Taking care of digestion and gut health 
  • Addressing hair health with diet, supplements, and gentle care 
  • Prioritizing sleep, stress management, and mental wellness 

Your health is a journey that changes as you move through life. It looks like 2026 is shaping up to be a year where more women than ever will feel empowered to make choices that match their needs, not just what “everyone says.”
