Why you'll love it
Omega 3: Omegas are essential nutrients required for the proper structure and functioning of every cell in the body. In fact, there are over 60 conditions that have been shown to benefit from their use. Furthermore, due to their extensive role, they’re critical for optimal health and nearly everyone can benefit from improving their Omega 3 intake.
Probiotic: Intestinal flora play such an important role, and supplementing with Probiotics can really have a profound effect on promoting overall good health. In fact, 70% of the immune system is located in the intestine which makes sense when you consider that the gut is actually the gatekeeper responsible for allowing the passage nutrients while preventing toxins from entering our bloodstream
Vitamin C: While Vitamin C is quite prevalent in raw fruits and vegetables, many Canadians just aren’t eating enough, especially with the limited seasonal availability of local produce and the fact that today’s fruits and vegetables contain about 30% less Vitamin C than our grandparents’ did. Vitamin C probably has more health benefits than just about any other nutrient. As a powerful antioxidant, Vitamin C works to improve everything from your immune function to skin health and pretty much everything in between.
Zinc: As an essential mineral, zinc plays a number of roles in the human body and has an impact on many things including brain function, immune health, clear skin and hormonal balance.
B Complex: B Vitamins are important factors in energy production, hormone metabolism, adrenal health and cognitive and mental health, and as stress levels increase, so does the body’s demand for these critical nutrients.
Why this formula?
Our fish oil supplement has been thoroughly reviewed to ensure that it contains only small fish that are mollecularly distilled to ensure that it is high in EPA and DHA and low in contaminants. It has also been independently tested to ensure that it is free from heavy metals and environmental toxins so you can confidently take this knowing you are getting all of the good stuff and none of the bad.
Our probiotics are all multi-strain. Having more strains provides strength in numbers as well as variation in the type of bacteria you are colonizing with. High concentrations of fewer strains can be great for treating certain conditions like antibiotic associated diarrhea, however diversity is important in supplements used for daily, general health so as not to end up with an over-colonization of any specific strain of bacteria.
Our Vitamin C is patented calcium ascorbate made using a water-based, chemical-free process. The result is a buffered, non-acidic form that is gentle on the stomach and less likely to cause any of the digestive issues associated with regular vitamin C.
We have chosen a zinc supplement that contains the picolinate form to make sure you get the most benefit at the lowest dose. Though the dose we recommend is well within the safe range, there is evidence that long-term supplementation of high doses of zinc can result in copper deficiency, which is why a small dose of copper is included in our supplement to prevent any potential deficiencies from occurring.
The most important thing to consider when selecting a high quality B Complex is whether or not the individual B Vitamins are present in their active, usable forms which is exactly what you will find in this formula.
