Vitamins
Liquid Vitamins contains over
100 nutrients in a highly absorbable liquid format. All ingredients used are
certified for quality, purity and freshness. All ingredients are certified to
USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) standards. These ingredients are not
bioengineered. The individual ingredients are combined to maximize synergy, and
the product is safe to take for nearly everyone. It can be taken in two divided
doses, or taken once per day.
Increasing
productivity, feeling better and more generally healthy, seeing your family
enjoy the best possible health, and fighting off the potential onset of serious
diseases…..These are the things that everyone wishes they could enjoy.
Unfortunately continued agricultural use of farmlands has ensured that our food
today is no longer nutrient-dense. That is, even a large portion of today's food
does not contain an adequate amount of vitamins and minerals to ensure
protracted health for those who eat it. Most researchers agree that taking a
quality multivitamin/multimineral is a good defense against malnutrition, but
these natural chemicals work so much better when we get them from food.
Now there is a way to supplement that natural acquisition of nutrients
with a liquid! The all-natural vitamins, amino acids, and minerals of this
product are bonded to a phytogenic vegetable complex, containing over 60 natural
vegetable elements.
Vitamins were discovered by Dutch physician, Christiaan Eijkmann, who
won the 1929 Nobel prize in physiology and medicine. Vitamins are essential for
life and contribute to good health by regulating metabolism and assisting the
biochemical processes that release energy from digested foods. Therefore, a
"vitamin" is any of the organic compounds required by the body in
small amounts (micronutrients), to protect health and for proper growth in
living creatures.
Vitamins also assist in the formation of hormones, blood cells,
nervous-system chemicals, and genetic material. The various vitamins are not
chemically related, and most differ in their physiological actions. They
generally act as catalysts, combining with proteins to create metabolically
active enzymes that in turn produce hundreds of important chemical reactions
throughout the body. Without vitamins, many of these reactions would slow down
or cease. The intricate ways in which vitamins act on the body, however, are
still far from clear.
The 13 well-identified vitamins are classified according to their ability to
be absorbed in fat or water. The fat-soluble vitamins include vitamin A, vitamin
D, vitamin E, and vitamin K. These are generally consumed along with
fat-containing foods. Because they can be stored in the body's fat, they do not
have to be consumed every day. The water-soluble vitamins include the eight B
vitamins and vitamin C. These cannot be stored by the body and must be consumed
frequently, preferably every day.
Only vitamin D can be manufactured by the body. All others must be derived
from the diet. Lack of sufficient vitamin intake causes a wide range of health
problems and dysfunctions. The U.S. Food and Nutrition Board of the National
Research Council has published recommended dietary allowances (RDA) for
vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. RDAs are normally expressed in
international units (IU) or milligrams. For adults and children of normal
health, these recommendations are useful guidelines not only for professionals
in nutrition but also for the growing number of families and individuals who eat
irregular meals and rely on prepared foods (many of which are now required to
carry nutritional labeling). Unfortunately, these RDAs give only the bare
minimum required to ward off deficiency diseases such as rickets, beri-beri,
scurvy, and night blindness. What they do not account for are the amounts needed
to maintain maximum health.
All vitamin supplements work best when taken along with food. Typically,
oil-soluble vitamins should be taken before meals and water soluble vitamins
should be taken after meals.
