Vitamins and minerals are the building blocks of health. Our body makes no minerals and sadly the soil has been depleted of precious minerals from improper crop rotation, over-pesticide use and damaging UV rays from holes in the ozone layer.
The National Institute of Health has stated that every person needs DAILY supplements to maintain health and boost the immune system.
#1 side effect of malnutrition is obesity. WHY?
Because the brain keeps sending signals to eat to secure precious vitamins, minerals and water. What does the average American reach for when they are hungry? Do they reach for broccoli, Brussels sprouts or cabbage and a glass of water? NO - they reach for a carbohydrate (which turns to sugar in the body). Looks like a vicious cycle, don't you think?
WHY DO PEOPLE TAKE VITAMINS AND STILL NOT FEEL BETTER?
Because, in most cases, only 5 - 7% of the vitamins and minerals are absorbed into the cells. The Physician's Desk Reference Manual(PDR), which is the publication Doctor's refer readily to, states that cell absorption of vitamins and minerals absorb at 10% or less. (i.e.if a nutrient had 100 mgs, your body would only absorb 10 mgs or less).
Do you Oligo? Don't know what this means?
10 Times More Available for Absorption
Only Oligo binds minerals to organic compounds (amino acids and oligofructose) to mirror the way they are found in fruits, vegetables, and other whole foods to maximize solubility.
In fact, Oligo minerals are scientifically proven to be up to 10 times more available for absorption than the minerals in the leading brands.* Traditional mineral forms can crystallize in the intestines, making them difficult to absorb. Labels don’t indicate the rate of solubility, availability, or absorption or the nutrients inside.
Minerals in traditional supplements can trigger massive free radical activity during digestion. These free radicals can actually cancel out the benefits of antioxidants like vitamins C and E. Oligo minerals are different. Oligo protects these critical antioxidants up to 5 times better than the leading brands. As a result, your body gets more of the nutrition it needs most for more energy every day and a lifetime of better health.
