Health Information

Mega Multivitamin Intense nutrient formula is a high potency formula to help maintain good health and reduce the risk of nutrient deficiencies. A review of the benefits of multivitamin concluded that most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins solely through diet and that it appears wise for all adults to take vitamin supplements. The same review recommended that all adults should take 1 multivitamin pill daily and elderly people should take 2 daily, as they are more susceptible to vitamin deficiencies. It contains high potency B Vitamins; 75mg of the major B's, plus 300mcg of folic acid and 100mcg of Vitamin B12 per tablet. B vitamins are essential as coenzymes in energy pathways in the body. They help produce neurotransmitters in the brain, which help cognitive processes and mood. B vitamins help in the production of important anti stress hormone, such as gluco-corticoids and mineral-corticoids, in the adrenal gland cortex. Folic acid helps maintain normal cell replication, especially important for high-turnover cells such as skin cells, blood and epithelial cells. Vitamin B12 reactivated Folic acid and helps maintain healthy red blood cell formation and spinal form function. Vitamins C, E and Beta carotene, Bioflavonoids and selenium are important antioxidants that help scavenge free radicals. Vitamin D is important for calcium absorption, metabolism and bone formation. Minerals and trace elements complement dietary intake of nutrients essential for normal metabolism. Co Enzyme Q10 assists energy production in the mitochondrial membrane where they can be used for energy.
