Science behind Complex™ Essentials
This natural colorant is efficiently converted in the body into Vitamin A, which is essential for healthy vision, immune function, skin health, as well as cell division and maturation. It also helps maintain the health of the lungs, heart, and other vital organs.
Vitamin E in its patented NUTRABIOL® form acts primarily as a powerful antioxidant. It helps protect your skin and eyes from excessive oxidative stress, which you're exposed to now more than ever in today’s environment.
Vitamin C from the camu camu plant is essential for a strong immune system, the body’s antioxidant defense, and the production of collagen—vital for strong bones, firm and elastic skin, and resilient tendons and ligaments.
It also enhances iron absorption, and according to studies, adequate Vitamin C intake may reduce the duration of colds—one of the most common reasons athletes skip training!
Vitamin K2 (K2VITAL® MK-7) plays a crucial role in directing calcium to where it’s needed most—your bones and teeth—and away from places it shouldn’t be, like arteries and soft tissues.
By doing so, it helps protect your cardiovascular system and supports long-term heart and bone health.
Thiamine supports the efficient metabolism of carbohydrates, helps with energy production, and is essential for the proper function of the nervous system.
Supplementing with thiamine may also help reduce symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) in women, according to research.
Vitamin B2 in its active form, Riboflavin-5-Phosphate, is a key component of several enzymes that regulate immune function, nervous system activity, and most importantly, energy production.
Studies also show that B2 supplementation may reduce the frequency and severity of migraines, making it a valuable nutrient for both daily vitality and long-term wellness.
Niacin (Vitamin B3) helps maintain healthy cholesterol levels in the blood, making adequate intake essential for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and long-term heart health.
Like most B vitamins, pantothenic acid is essential for optimal cellular energy production, metabolism, and the synthesis of various hormones, playing a key role in maintaining overall vitality and hormonal balance.
Vitamin B6, in its active form Pyridoxal-5-Phosphate, acts as a cofactor for coenzyme A, which plays a crucial role in the production of energy and important neurotransmitters, including dopamine (linked to mood and motivation) and melatonin (the sleep hormone).
Thanks to these effects, B6 helps regulate mood, manage stress, and support energy levels. Supplementation has also been shown to reduce PMS symptoms in women.
Vitamin B7, also known as biotin, helps convert carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into energy that fuels all essential body processes.
It’s also vital for maintaining healthy hair, skin, and nails, making it a key nutrient for both inner vitality and outer beauty.
Vitamin B9, in its active and patented form Quatrefolic®, supports the development and health of the nervous and cardiovascular systems.
Unlike the commonly available inactive form (folic acid)—which about 40% of the population cannot properly absorb—Quatrefolic® is fully bioavailable, ensuring maximum effectiveness for everyone.
Vitamin B12, in its active form methylcobalamin, supports proper nerve function, aids in the production of red blood cells, and helps prevent anemia and fatigue, contributing to sustained energy and overall vitality.
Zinc, in its patented ALBION® form, is essential for the proper function of hundreds of enzymes in the body. It plays key roles in antioxidant defense, brain function, and the immune system.
When deficient, supplementing with zinc can help shorten the duration of illness, speed up wound healing, and even boost testosterone levels. Studies also show that correcting zinc deficiency may improve symptoms of depression.
Selenium is a well-known mineral celebrated for its antioxidant properties, as it forms a key part of antioxidant enzymes like glutathione, enhancing their protective effects.
It also plays an important role in supporting healthy thyroid function and overall metabolism.
Iodine, sourced from natural seaweed extract, is a key mineral for proper thyroid function, which in turn regulates the metabolism of the entire body.
Copper is an essential mineral involved in the function of antioxidant enzymes in the human body. It also plays a crucial role in the production of red blood cells, and supports healthy nerves and a strong immune system.
Manganese, in its patented MagChel® form, is a key component of the powerful antioxidant enzyme manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD). It also supports bone formation and contributes to energy production, making it essential for both protection and performance.
Chromium helps regulate blood sugar levels and supports a healthy metabolism, playing a key role in how the body processes carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
