WHY IS TAKING A VITAMIN SUPPLEMENT IMPORTANT?

A vitamin may be broadly defined as a substance that is essential for the maintenance of normal metabolic function, for which is not produced in the body and therefore must be consumed from a source outside the body.

 

They are necessary elements in the process of converting food to energy and in the growth and repair of body tissue. Reduction of vitamin levels over extended periods can result in vitamin deficiency.

 

These shortages may lead to symptoms which can include loss of appetite, loss of body weight, increased irritability and sleeplessness or constant drowsiness. Deficiencies of this nature can be easily avoided by adequate vitamin intake.

 

What is a bioflavonoid?

 

Bioflavonoids are complex organic plant compounds. Plants and fruits differ in colors based on the specific bioflavonoids they contain. An increasing number of clinical studies have shown how bioflavonoids support health. Bioflavonoids found in OPCs play a key role in cardiovascular health and maintaining vascular integrity.

 

Bioflavonoids have been shown to demonstrate support for healthy circulation and cell vitality. Normal collagen renewal is promoted, which supports firmness of the skin, joint cartilage and connective tissue.

 

Why should someone take a multivitamin?

 

Even when eating a balanced diet, it is difficult to consume the optimal amounts of vitamins and minerals each day. Numerous studies have been conducted on the importance of vitamins and minerals. One should supplement with a multivitamin to assure that their daily nutrient intake is balanced and powerful enough to ward against any deficiencies, allowing for the best health possible.

 

What Are Probiotics?

 

Probiotics are beneficial organisms that promote a healthy intestinal tract environment. Probiotics can help support the body in maintaining proper digestive functions and improving emotional health. Lactobacillus sporogenes bacteria reside mostly in the large intestine and help break down undigested food. These "friendly" bacteria can help the absorption of vitamins and minerals and can actually synthesize some vitamins, such as biotin and vitamin K. In addition, these beneficial bacteria contribute to the breaking down of fibers and undigested starch into simple sugars. These simple sugars then function as fuel for the cells that line the large intestine.

 

Why is an Isotonix® formula better than a standard vitamin?

 

Isotonix formulas are more effective than standard vitamin formulas because they offer the best way to get the maximum delivery of vitamins and minerals into the bloodstream.

 

Isotonix formulas are also the fastest and most effective ways to receive vitamins. The stomach has very little work to do because the pH and tonicity are carefully designed to allow the stomach to quickly release all the nutrients into the small intestine.

 

With the Isotonix formula, this process takes about five minutes, where a standard vitamin tablet can take up to four hours.
