HOW IT WORKS:
Multivitamin and mineral supplements provide a balanced dose of the basic vitamins and minerals in amounts that pose little or no risk of overdosing on any one nutrient. This formula has been designed to meet the unique needs of women over 50, including more calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D to help reduce the risk of osteoporosis; a good balance of B-complex vitamins, which help provide energy; extra vitamin E to help fi ght oxidative stress, which damages health and contributes to aging; and this formula is iron-free, as women over 50 are unlikely to become defi cient in iron, as they are no longer menstruating.

Beta-carotene: A precursor to vitamin A and an antioxidant. Vitamin A: Plays a role in the immune system and in the formation of healthy epithelial tissue. An antioxidant, it protects against damage to cells that can lead to cancer. Thiamine (vitamin B1): Protects against impaired mental function, required for proper energy production in the brain. Ribofl avin (vitamin B2): Needed for tissue repair and for healthy eyes. Important for energy production. Niacinamide (vitamin B3): Functions in the body as a component in the coenzymes NAD and NADP. Plays an important role in energy production; fat, cholesterol, and carbohydrate metabolism; and the manufacture of many body compounds, including sex and adrenal hormones. Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5): Vital to the healthy functioning of the adrenal glands, which is why pantothenic acid has long been considered an “antistress” vitamin. Folate (folic acid): Vital to healthy cell division and replication, especially the lining of the gastrointestinal tract, the skin, and bone marrow, where blood cells are formed. Also involved as coenzymes for neurotransmitters, and important to the healthy functioning of the immune system. Vitamin B6: Involved in the metabolism of amino acids and essential fatty acids, and is therefore required for the proper growth and maintenance of all body functions. Vitamin B12: Involved in the production of DNA, red blood cells, and the myelin sheath that surrounds nerve cells and speeds the conduction of signals along nerve cells. For proper absorption of B12, the stomach produces a digestive secretion called intrinsic factor. Vitamin C: An antioxidant and immune-enhancing vitamin. Vitamin D: Stimulates the absorption of calcium and has anticancer properties. Vitamin E: Protects the fatty tissues of the body. Protects against toxic substances. Biotin: A B vitamin that is involved in the biosynthesis of fatty acids and energy production. Iodine: Three-quarters of the iodine in the body is found in the thyroid gland, the remainder is found throughout the body, mostly in the fl uid that bathes the cells. It is important in the proper functioning of the thyroid gland and is part of the thyroid hormones used to regulate metabolism, infl uencing physical and mental growth, the functioning of the nervous system and muscles, circulatory activity, and the metabolism of all nutrients. Calcium: Besides its role in the formation of bones and teeth, calcium is also in involved in fat and protein digestion and the production of energy. It is involved in blood clotting and the transmission of nerve impulses, and it regulates the contraction and relaxation of muscles, including the heart. Chromium: Supplemental chromium is used in the treatment of impaired glucose tolerance (hypoglycemia and diabetes), elevated blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels, promotion of weight loss, and treatment of acne. Copper: Copper is required for normal infant development, red and white blood cell maturation, iron transport, bone strength, cholesterol metabolism, myocardial contractibility, glucose metabolism, brain development, and immune function.
DID YOU KNOW…
Many studies indicate that most diets, even healthful ones, fall well below the Recommended Dietary Allowance for many nutrients.
Magnesium: Besides its role in maintaining healthy bones, magnesium is also involved in maintaining a healthy nervous system. In addition, magnesium is required for muscle relaxation, energy production, protein formation, cellular replication, the regulation of sodium and potassium in the cells, and effi cient heart function. Manganese: Required for many enzyme systems, normal bone growth and development, and normal reproduction. Also required for the proper functioning of the nerves and possibly the immune system. Potassium: The most important dietary electrolyte, potassium functions in the maintenance of water balance and distribution, acid-base balance, muscle and nerve cell function, heart function, and kidney and adrenal function. Selenium: Best known as an antioxidant and anticancer mineral. A component of the enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which protects cells against free radical damage. Zinc: Functions as a cofactor in over 20 enzymatic reactions. Plays a role in insulin activity, protein and DNA synthesis, taste and smell, wound healing, the maintenance of normal vitamin A levels, bone structure, and the immune system.
RESEARCH:
The efficacy of multivitamin and mineral supplementation is supported by a comprehensive report issued by the Council for Responsible Nutrition. The report states that ongoing use of multivitamins and minerals demonstrated a quantifiable positive impact in areas ranging from strengthening the immune system of elderly patients to drastically reducing the risk of neural tube birth defects such as spina bifida. In addition, an article published in the journal Nutrition in 2001 reported on a study that showed an improvement in every cognitive function except long-term memory in elderly subjects who were taking multivitamin and mineral supplements
SIDE EFFECTS:
No side effects expected at recommended dosage.
INTERACTIONS AND SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS:
For people over 14 years of age only.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS:
Keep out of reach of children.
