vitamins and minerals

A fat-soluble vitamin and helps to make various proteins that are needed for blood clotting and the building of bones.

Vitamin K

A Vitamin that stimulates the production and activity of white blood cells, takes part in remodeling bone, helps maintain healthy endothelial cells and regulates cell growth and division such as needed for reproduction.

Vitamin A

Vitamin needed to form red blood cells and DNA. It is also a key player in the function and development of brain and nerve cells.

B12

Also known as ascorbic acid, this is a water-soluble vitamin and commonly used to prevent scurvy. It is also a powerful antioxidant and is needed to make collagen.

C

It is a fat-soluble vitamin that has long been known to help the body absorb and retain calcium and phosphorus; both are critical for building bone.

Vitamin D

Is a mineral most often associated with healthy bones and teeth, although it also plays an important role in blood clotting, helping muscles to contract, and regulating normal heart rhythms and nerve functions.

Ca (calcium)

It helps to regulate the amount of fluid and types of nutrients going in and out of the cells. It also maintainsproper pH levels, stimulates stomach acid needed for digestion, and facilitates the flow of oxygen and carbon dioxide within cells.

Cl (chlorine)

Is a major component of hemoglobin, a type of protein in red blood cells

Fe (iron)

This mineral plays an important role in assisting more than 300 enzymes to carry out various chemical reactions in the body such as building proteins and strong bones, andregulating blood sugar. Also acts an electrical conductor that contracts muscles and makes the heart beat steadily.

Mg (magnesium)

It carries a small electrical charge that activates various cell and nerve functions. Its main role in the body is to help maintain normal levels of fluid inside our cells.

K (potassium)

The human body requires a small amount of this mineralto conduct nerve impulses, contract and relax muscles, and maintain the proper balance of water and minerals.

Na (sodium)

It is a key element of bones, teeth, and cell membranes. It helps to activate enzymes and keeps blood pH within a normal range. Is also a building block of our genes, as it makes up DNA, RNA, and ATP, the body’s major source of energy.

P (phosphorus)

Also known as Riboflavin, it is a key component of coenzymes involved with the growth of cells, energy production, and the breakdown of fats, steroids, and medications and is excreted in urine.
