Vitamin A: a critical element that plays a vital role in immune function, bone growth, and the health of skin cells.

Vitamin C: needed for the growth and repair of tissues in the body.

Vitamin D: vital to maintaining normal calcium and phosphorus blood levels needed for strong, healthy bones.

Vitamin E: helps maintain healthy immune function. Also plays a role in blood clotting, commonly referred to as a “natural blood thinner”.

Vitamin K: contributes to the regular, normal process of blood clotting when required by the body. Also affects the cycle of healthy bone turnover.

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin): without B2, your body would not be able to produce energy as effectively.

Vitamin B3 (Niacin): similar to Vitamin B2, B3 helps the body produce energy and maintain other important functions.

Vitamin B6: helps metabolize amino acids and glycogen.

Folic Acid: helps produce and maintain healthy blood cells, allowing the blood to carry oxygen throughout the body and fight infection.

Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin): important factor for normal blood cell formation and brain/nerve functions.

Biotin: plays a key role in the metabolism of lipids, proteins and carbohydrates, and other enzymatic reactions.

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid): essential in energy production and storing fats.

Calcium: component of teeth and bones, important for the contraction of muscles, and plays a role in proper nerve function.

Iron: important in maintaining healthy blood cells and carrying oxygen to all parts of the body.

Chromium: essential part of metabolic processes that regulate blood sugar and in the conversion from glucose into energy.

Potassium: essential for the function of all living cells. Plays an important role in regulation of fluids and hydration.

Boron: important for building strong bones, aids in strengthening muscles, and improves mental processing and muscle coordination.

L-Lysine: helps with calcium absorption and helps increase the amount of calcium stored in bones.

Silicon: fundamental to bone and skeletal structure, also promotes healthy skin, hair, and nails.
