Vitamin E: a powerful antioxidant, an essential nutrient for healthy skin and beautiful hair, assists in the formation of red blood cells, maintains healthy cardio and immune system function.

Overview

Vitamin E was discovered about 80 years ago, but in the last twenty years it has been discovered to be a powerful antioxidant that may play a vital role in protecting the body from many chronic disorders. Vitamin E is fat soluble and poorly absorbed. It is stored in the fat tissues and the liver. Vitamin E is a term for a group of related compounds called "tocopherols" and "tocotrienols", which occur in four major forms: alpha, beta, delta, and gamma. Alpha tocopherol is known to be the most common and potent form of vitamin E.

Vitamin E is necessary for structural and functional maintenance of the skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle membranes. Vitamin E also assists in the formation of red blood cells and helps to maintain vitamin A, K, iron and selenium and increases the storage of each of these in the body. Vitamin E has numerous clinical applications.
So much research has been conducted on Vitamin E, that a myriad of potential health benefits have been discovered. These health benefits may support the overall health of people suffering from a long list of disorders or disease states.

Although Vitamin E is the most common vitamin found in nature, it is often lacking in processed foods. The majority of foods that provide vitamin E are high in fat, so supplementation is an excellent option for anyone seeking the numerous benefits of vitamin E--without all the fat! The Vitamin E used by our facility is derived from soybean oil.

Our Vitamin E is available in 200 or 1000IU softgels in a number of sizes.

This formula of our Vitamin E softgels is available in two separate potencies. This gives the customer different options to meet their individual needs. Softgels are easy to take and an optimal delivery system as Vitamin E is fat-soluble, and is more bioavailable when taken with some form of fat.

Dosage
The RDA for Vitamin E is 12 IU for women and 15 IU for men, however typical daily dosages range from 400-800 IU. It is recommended that Vitamin E be taken with meals that contain fat to increase absorption and lower the risk of stomach irritation.

Cautions

• Vitamin E is generally non-toxic when taken in doses less than 1200 IU per day
• In doses more than 1200 IU/day it may cause nausea, gas, diarrhea and heart palpitations.
• High doses of vitamin E may interfere with vitamin K activity.
• If you have an overactive thyroid, diabetes, hypertension, rheumatic heart disease, are taking prescription blood thinners, aspirin or are pregnant or lactating consult a health care practitioner before taking Vitamin E.

Vitamin K, an essential nutrient for bone health and normal blood clotting, maintains bone mineral density, counteracts clotting mechanism disruptions.

In 1935 a scientist in Copenhagen observed that newly hatched chickens receiving a diet containing all of the known essential nutrients were developing a bleeding disorder. He soon discovered that the chicks were deficient in a nutrient that is crucial for normal blood clotting. He called this nutrient vitamin K. Today, vitamin K deficiency is rare, except in infants, for whom such a deficiency can be fatal. Vitamin K is a fat soluble nutrient that has also been proven important for bone health.
The best sources of vitamin K are liver, green leafy vegetables and members of the cabbage family. Since vitamin K is also produced by bacteria in the intestines, humans are not dependent upon diet for this nutrient.

Our Vitamin K 100mcg is available in 100 vegetarian tablets.

Research Indicates

• Plays a role in the function of several proteins that regulate the blood's ability to clot.
• Individuals who were given vitamin K or consumed more vitamin K in their diets had beneficial effects on maintaining their bone mineral density.
• Studies have linked vitamin K status to atherosclerosis.
• Vitamin K has been given to counteract clotting mechanism disruptions caused by certain medications by health care professionals
• Studies have shown a decrease in bone fractures in people using vitamin K.

Dosage
Typical daily dosage is from 50 to 100mcg.

Cautions

• If you have clotting disorders or are pregnant or lactating consult a health care practitioner prior to using Vitamin K.
• Vitamin K should not be used in premature infants or newborns without first talking to a healthcare professional

Vitamin D is an important nutrient for bone health: helps in skeletal diseases prevention and healthy immune function support.

Overview

Vitamin D, calciferol, is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is known as the "sunshine" vitamin because it is formed in the body by the action of the sun's ultraviolet rays on the skin. Vitamin D is converted in the kidneys to the hormone calcitrol, which is actually the most active form of vitamin D. The effects of this hormone are targeted at the intestines and bones. The major biologic function of vitamin D is to maintain normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin D aids in the absorption of calcium, thereby helping to form and maintain strong bones. It promotes bone mineralization in concert with a number of other vitamins, minerals, and hormones. Without vitamin D, bones can become thin, brittle, soft, or misshapen. Vitamin D prevents rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults, which are skeletal diseases that result in defects that weaken bones.

Our Vitamin D is derived from cholecalciferol and is available in 400 IU softgels.

Research Indicates

• Important nutrient for bone health
• May support healthy joint function
• May be important for healthy immune function
• Some evidence indicates that steroids may impair vitamin D metabolism
• Deficiency has been linked with increased hip fractures
• Vitamin D deficiency causes rickets
• May support overall skin health

Dosage
The RDA for Vitamin D is 400 IU.

Cautions

• If you are pregnant or lactating consult a health care practitioner prior to using Vitamin D.
• Vitamin D is a fat-soluble nutrient and can accumulate at toxic levels in fatty tissue, avoid excessive Vitamin D intake
• Occasional side effects reported with large doses of Vitamin D include a disorder known as hypercalcemia, which causes calcium deposits in soft tissues. Signs of the disorder include headache, weakness, nausea, vomiting, confusion, kidney problems and constipation. Consult a health care practitioner if you experience any of these symptoms after taking Vitamin D

VITAMIN C (Calcium Ascorbate), 120 caps, 1000 mg

Important for Cell Protection, Supporting Healthy Immune and Brain Function, Manufacturing of Collagen, Iron and Vitamin E Absorption.

Overview

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) was first discovered in the 18th century by sailors who realized that they could avoid scurvy by sucking on lemons and limes. It was first isolated in 1928 by scientist Albert Szent Gyorgyi. Humans are one of the few species (apes and guinea pigs are the others) that cannot manufacture Vitamin C, and therefore must obtain it from their diet and/or nutritional supplements. It is water soluble and is stored throughout the body, with the highest concentrations in the adrenal glands. Vitamin C has many health benefits, but its probably best known as a cell protector, a powerful antioxidant and for supporting healthy immune function. It is a highly versatile and health-enhancing nutrient that is active throughout the the body. There is a large body of scientific evidence that supports the validity of the health claims attributed to Vitamin C. In a study conducted on 168 volunteers, it was concluded that moderately high doses can lessen the severity and duration of the common cold by supporting healthy immune function. Additional studies concluded that Vitamin C might be helpful for persons that have allergies and respiratory problems. Vitamin C has also been studied for its benefits on cardiovascular health. Countless other studies have been conducted on Vitamin C exploring numerous different applications and uses.
The Vitamin C used in this product is derived from corn. Our Sustained Release Vitamin C is designed to provide all the benefits of Vitamin C in a form that extends the release in the body. Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient that is typically excreted quickly from the body, in this form it remains in the system longer thereby increasing the benefits

Vitamin A&D is an essential vitamin supplement, providing kids and adults with the necessary quantity of vitamin a and vitamin d, what helps to prevent skeletal diseases and to strengthen bones.

Overview

Vitamin A was first 'discovered' in 1913, when scientists found it could prevent night blindness. Then, in 1932 it was determined that beta-carotene, also known as pro-vitamin A, was the precursor to vitamin A. When we consume beta-carotene, vitamin A is produced naturally by enzymes in the digestive tract that digest beta-carotene. The fat-soluble vitamin A is then stored in the liver, where it can remain for long periods of time. Vitamin A occurs naturally only in animal products like liver, kidney, butter, egg yolks, whole milk and fortified skim milk.

Vitamin D, calciferol, is a fat-soluble vitamin. It is known as the "sunshine" vitamin because it is formed in the body by the action of the sun's ultraviolet rays on the skin. Vitamin D is converted in the kidneys to the hormone calcitrol, which is actually the most active form of vitamin D. The effects of this hormone are targeted at the intestines and bones.
