Vitamin B12 and B Complex help create energy by acting as cofactors in the metabolism of food and alleviates fatigue. These vitamins are some of the most critical, yet they are not produced by the human body. Vitamin B12 is a co-factor in the transfer of methyl groups in the body, important in the synthesis of DNA. B12 helps to increase red blood cell production and support the nervous system. Low B12 can result in low energy, tingling sensation or numbness in the hands or feet, swollen, red cracked tongue, mood changes, trouble concentrating and remembering things, and megaloblastic anemia.
Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) helps the cells of the body to convert carbs into energy. It is also an essential vitamin for the functioning of the heart, muscle, and nervous system.
Vitamin C assists in the production of nearly all immune system cells and functions when pathogens are detected. The antioxidant properties in vitamin C also reduce inflammation and irritation in the tissues caused by free radicals.
Magnesium is required for DNA replication, transcription into RNA and translation into protein. It also is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It helps maintain muscle and nerve function, a healthy immune system, regulates heartbeat and aids in bone strength.
Calcium primarily supports skeletal structure and function. It also plays key roles in cell signaling, blood clotting, muscle contraction, nerve function and increasing cellular absorption.
Glutathione acts as an important powerful antioxidant in your body that combats free radicals, reducing oxidative stress and preventing damage to cells. Involved in the synthesis of DNA & proteins, amino acid transport, enzyme activation, and immune system function.
Methionine is an amino acid that activates S-adenosyl methionine which breaks down estrogen carnitine (a fat carrier molecule). Methionine produces choline, creatine, epinephrine (energy), melatonin synthesis (aids in sleep, powerful antioxidant), nucleic acid synthesis (breakdown of histamine), glutathione synthesis (major detox antioxidant of the body), and maintains cartilage health.
Inositol transports fats through the body, converts food into energy, helps neurons communicate better with the body’s nervous system, participates in the action of serotonin production, and is vital for hair growth. Lastly, inositol combined with choline produces lecithin, which aids in the breakdown of cholesterol.
Choline is also an essential part of normal cell function by helping to transport nutrients throughout the body and decreases the risk for heart disease as it helps breakdown fat as cholesterol and helps prevent accumulation of fat in the liver.
Co-Enzyme Q10 produces energy for cell growth in the body (ATP) and accelerates muscle recovery after exercise. It improves athletic performance, increases energy, detoxifies your body, promotes anti-aging, boosts your immune system, and aids in maintaining cardiovascular health by increasing circulation and reducing blood pressure.
