helps stimulate immunity, is essential for proper functioning of the eye, and is necessary for the production of bone, skin, protein and growth hormone.
is a powerful antioxidant needed for the growth and repair of connective tissue (i.e. bones, skin, muscles, blood vessels). Vitamin C also acts as a natural antihistamine, promotes wound healing, and plays a vital role in the immune system.
helps maintain blood levels of calcium, helps maintain bone density, and is necessary for blood cell formation. Vitamin D also aids immunity and is required for adequate blood levels of insulin.
is a powerful antioxidant that enhances immunity, acts as an important component for healthy nervous system function, promotes the healing of wounds and reduces scar formation, and protects against cardiovascular disease.
1 is also essential for the healthy functioning of nerve cells, for the proper growth and maintenance of skin, and for immunity.
is needed for carbohydrate metabolism and for energy production. Vitamin B2 is also necessary for eye health.
is important for health nerve cell function, energy production, thyroid hormone metabolism, immunity, and for the health of red blood cells. Vitamin Bis needed for healthy skin, proper functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and nervous system, and the metabolism of fats.
6 also aids in the formation of various neurotransmitters involved in mental processes and mood regulation.
is necessary for the growth and maintenance of nearly all body structures and body functions, such as the health of the nervous and reproductive systems. Vitamin B12 in amino acid metabolism and protein synthesis and in the formation of RNA/DNA. Folic acid is an important nutrient for cell division and tissue growth, immunity, and the production of neurotransmitters.
works with vitamin Bis needed for normal nerve cell function, DNA replication, healthy red blood formation, and the production of SAMe (which affects mood).
is required for protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism. Biotin also plays a role in skin health and mood.
is involved in energy production and is needed to make the neurotransmitter acetylcholine. Pantothenic acid is also important for cholesterol and hormone synthesis and for activating the adrenal glands.
is required by every cell in the body. Iron in necessary for oxygen transport and storage, energy production and immune system function, as well as brain function.
is essential for healthy thyroid function. Research also suggests that iodine may be involved in hearing.
is necessary for growth and development, eye health and immunity. Zinc is also plays an important role in maintaining the structural integrity of cells and in the functioning of the sense of taste and smell.
