With a new year comes new opportunities for women of all walks of life to take charge of their own health and wellness. Movita Organics founder Tonya Lewis Lee’s resolution is to make wellness more accessible than ever in 2021, with multivitamins, beauty supplements and prenatal supplements for all women -including those who have been historically underserved by the health and wellness industry.
As an inclusive brand, Movita Organics aims to make a healthful lifestyle available to every woman, a vision that was shaped by Tonya’s travels around the world and dialogues with the many experts and women on the ground she met along the way. These conversations made Tonya realise the importance of empowering women to take control of their health and wellness–and of creating products that give all women the opportunity to do so.
Wellbeing of Women
Tonya said, “This past year has brought to light how crucial it really is for women to take care of themselves. Women spent 2020 fighting for the wellbeing of others: for the health and security of their loved ones, for the education and future of their children, and for political change and racial justice. In 2021, we must also fight for the wellbeing of women.”
Tonya’s professional journey into health and wellness began in 2007 when she was named the National Spokesperson for “A Healthy Baby Begins with You,” a campaign by the US Department of Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health. It was through this work as a women’s health advocate that Tonya embarked on her own health journey and formed her goal of making healthful options and education accessible to all women. This personal health journey, coupled with her entrepreneurial spirit, led Tonya to create Movita.
Certified Organic
Movita products are certified organic, gluten- and allergen-free and non-synthetic supplements that can be taken on an empty stomach. Unlike most other leading women’s vitamin brands, the Movita Multivitamin contains at least 17 vitamins and minerals with at least 100% percent of their recommended daily allowance, along with a blend of 18 fermented vegetables and six fermented fruits.
Movita Beauty supplements are designed to promote healthy skin, hair and nails, while Movita Prenatal vitamins help to fill in any gaps in nutrition for mother and future baby.
Starting with the best organic, whole foods, Movita individually cultures the ingredients in a nutrient-dense, dual live prebiotic and probiotic fermentation process called Glycoprotein Matrix-bound, or GPM. In this proprietary scientific process, whole foods are converted into glycoproteins – nutrients that are bound to proteins – making them easier to digest and increasing the absorption rate of Movita’s vitamins.
Tonya created Movita to help women gain a baseline of good nutrition, and a practice of positive choices that support a lifestyle of well-being. Tonya’s professional journey into health and wellness started in 2007 when she began serving as the National Spokesperson for the “A Healthy Baby Begins with You” campaign initiated by the US Department of Health and Human Services Office of Minority Health. It was through this work as a women’s health advocate that her own health journey took form, ultimately embarking on a lifestyle of wellness. This personal health journey coupled with her entrepreneurial spirit led Tonya to create Movita for women.
The author of Please Baby Please, Please Puppy Please, Gotham Diaries, the producer of The Watsons Go to Birmingham, Monster, She’s Gotta Have It, the mother of two adult children and the wife of a busy husband, Tonya knows first hand that balancing one’s own self-care with the demands of life is complicated. For Tonya, Movita is a platform to continue the conversation about finding balance and to offer a tool to help women as they work through this process. Health is a journey, not a destination.
Movita’s Women’s Multivitamin, Movita Beauty, and Movita Prenatal are available in the iconic Movita glass bottle on MovitaOrganics.com, on Amazon.
