Vitamins help regulate metabolism, help convert fat and carbohydrates into energy, and assist in forming bone and tissue. Many of the vitamins in this formula act as powerful anitoxidants.

Antioxidants are important protectors of health because they provide electrons that neutralize "free radicals"--molecules with unpaired electrons which have the power to cause cell damage.

Free radicals are produced from normal oxygen metabolism within the body, and from exposure to certain chemicals, environmental pollutants, sunlight, radiation, burns, cigarette smoke, drugs, alcohol, viruses, bacteria, parasites, dietary fats, and more.

VITAMIN B3 (Niacin) helps improve circulation. It helps maintain the nervous system, helps metabolize protein, sugar and fat, increases energy through proper utilization of food, and helps maintain a healthy skin, tongue and digestive system.

VITAMIN B5 (Panothenic Acid) participates in the release of energy from carbohydrates, fats and protein, improves the body's resistance to stress, helps in cell building, helps the adrenal glands, and supports immunity.

VITAMIN B6 is necessary for the synthesis and breakdown of amino acids, the building blocks of protein. It also aids in fat and carbohydrate metabolism, aids in immunity, helps maintain the central nervous system, and promotes healthy skin.

FOLIC ACID is necessary for DNA & RNA synthesis, which is essential for the growth and reproduction of all body cells, essential to the formation of red blood cells by its action on the bone marrow, and aids in amino acid metabolism.

VITAMIN B12 helps in the formation and regeneration of red blood cells. It is necessary for carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism, helps to maintain a healthy nervous system, promotes growth in children, and increases energy.

BORON may influence the production of hormones (including the active form of vitamin D), improve brain and psychological functions, and exert immune-boosting activity. Boron is essential to bone metabolism and the calcification of bones. It also is necessary for cartilage formation and repair. It affects calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus levels. Memory and brain function can be improved with boron. A deficiency can cause fragile cell walls.

Flax seed oil is extracted from organically grown flax seeds using a special cold-pressing process, which minimizes the damaging effects of light, oxygen and heat. Flax seed oil increases the body's production of energy and also increases stamina, stimulates fat cells and increases the metabolic rate making it easier to burn off fat. It also is known to improve the absorption of calcium, strengthen finger and toe nails, and it can often improve the function of the liver.

Grape seed and skin extract supplies oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC), red wine extract. Grape seed extract is a natural and powerful antioxidant. Red wine extract supports healthy blood vessels and connective tissues.

Siberian Ginseng is an herb used to fight fatigue and provides supplemental immune support. It also provides energy through times of strenuous exercise programs and supports and stimulates efficient adrenal function.

CALCIUM builds and maintains bones and teeth, regulates heart rhythm, supports the sleep cycle, helps regulate the passage of nutrients in and out of the cell walls, assists in normal blood clotting, helps maintain proper nerve and muscle function.

MAGNESIUM plays an important role in regulating the neuromuscular activity of the heart. it also helps maintain normal heart rhythm, is necessary for proper calcium and Vitamin C metabolism, and converts blood sugar into energy. Deficiency may result in calcium depletion, heart spasms, nervousness, muscular excitability, and confusion.

PHOSPHORUS is essential for utilization of carbohydrate, fats and proteins for growth, maintenance, repair of cells, and energy production. It is necessary for proper skeletal growth, tooth development, kidney functioning and transference of nerve impulses. Phosphorus works with calcium to develop and maintain strong bones and teeth. It also enhances use of other nutrients.

IODINE aids in the development and functioning of the thyroid gland, regulates the body's production of energy, helps burn excess fat by stimulating the rate of metabolism. Iodine deficiency may result in slow mental reaction, dry skin and hair, weight gain, and loss of physical and mental vigor.

ZINC is a powerful antioxidant that is necessary for protein synthesis and is vital for the development of the reproductive organs. It is vital for prostate functions and male hormone activity, it governs the contractility of muscles, is important for blood stability, maintains the body's alkaline balance, helps in normal tissue function, and aids in the digestion and metabolism of phosphorus. Zinc deficiency may result in white spots on finger nails, fatigue, decreased alertness, and a stressed immune system.

SELENIUM is another major antioxidant which protects cell membranes and prevents free radical generation.

COPPER is necessary for the absorption and utilization of iron, helps oxidize Vitamin C and works with vitamin C to form elastin, aids in the formation of red blood cells, and helps proper bone formation and maintenance. Deficiency may result in general weakness.

TRACE MINERALS are minerals that occur in tiny amounts or traces. They play a major role in health since even minute portions of them can powerfully affect health. They are essential in the assimilation and utilization of vitamins and other nutrients. They aid in digestion and provide the catalyst for many hormones, enzymes and essential body functions and reactions.

Amino acids complex are chemical substances used by the body to build the exact type of protein it needs. There are two types: essential and nonessential. While the body must get the essential amino acids from foods, it can manufacture the nonessential amino acids on its own if the diet is lacking in them. Of the approximately 80 amino acids found in nature, only 20 are necessary for proper human growth and function. Not only do they help make neurotransmitters, they also help produce hormones such as insulin, enzymes that activate bodily functions, and certain types of body fluids. In addition, they are essential for the repair and maintenance of organs, glands, muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, hair, and nails. An amino acid deficiency is usually caused by a diet that is low in protein.
