What Makes Our Product Unique:
The nutrients in Essential Multivitamin are bioavailable, readily utilized by the body, and are gentle on the stomach. They include:
-
Bioactive B vitamins: Many people – by some estimates, up to 30% of the population – have difficulty converting B vitamins to their active forms. This means they derive less benefit regardless of the dose. That’s why Essential Multivitamin includes vitamin B6, B12, and folic acid in their active forms: P-5-P, methylcobalamin, and L-methylfolate. They don’t require conversion by the liver, so even individuals with liver issues or other reasons for poor conversion will benefit. This formula provides the levels of B vitamins needed by everyone, including women who are pregnant or nursing.
-
Easily absorbed chelated trace minerals: We all need minerals, but we need to absorb them, too. To ensure you benefit from these essential nutrients, Essential Multivitamin uses minerals bound to amino acids to create an organic molecule the body can easily use.
-
Vitamin D3: The daily required “sunshine vitamin” is delivered in the form the body prefers and uses best.
-
Vitamin E from a mixed tocopherol complex: The complete family of tocopherols (alpha, beta, delta, and gamma) are included in this formula the way nature intended.
-
Ginger: This botanical ingredient supports overall health and helps make this supplement gentle on the stomach.*
Frequently Asked Questions
What are chelated minerals and why are they important?
A “chelate” is a bond between a mineral (often called “inorganic”) and a molecule structure, called a “ligand” that helps the body absorb the mineral during digestion. The amino acid glycine makes an excellent molecule to help shepherd minerals through the intestinal wall, because it is so small it can be transported directly into the cells of the body, so it can get to work right away.
Essential Multivitamin provides chelated minerals using The Real Amino Acid Chelate System, known as TRAACS™. These are premium minerals not found in most daily multiples.
Why do I need to take this supplement more than once a day?
The desire to take one tablet and be done with it each day is understandable. However, it doesn’t mirror the way the body uses these ingredients. If you want truly vibrant health, you need your nutrients throughout the day for some important reasons. First, humans are designed to acquire nutrients several times a day, which is why our bodies tell us to eat meals more than once per day.
Additionally, water soluble vitamins are quickly flushed from the body, and you need your vitamin C and the B family as much at 6:00 p.m. as you do at 7:00 a.m. Plus, there are physical limitations to how many nutrients can fit into one tablet. While vitamins are very small, minerals are huge by comparison, and would make a tablet too large to be swallowed. The truth is, you simply cannot obtain meaningful amounts of minerals in a once-daily formula. While the dosage levels for Essential Multivitamin can be customized (2 daily for maintenance), for optimum health, four tablets daily is best. Regardless of how many you take per day, Essential Multivitamin delivers superior absorption—surpassing any once daily multivitamin on the market!
