With few exceptions the body cannot manufacture or synthesize vitamins. They must be supplied in the diet or in dietary supplements. Vitamins are essential to the normal functioning of our bodies. They are necessary for our growth, vitality, and general well-being.
Vitamins help regulate metabolism, help convert fat and carbohydrates into energy, and assist in forming bone and tissue. Many of the vitamins in this formula act as powerful anitoxidants.
Antioxidants are important protectors of health because they provide electrons that neutralize "free radicals"--molecules with unpaired electrons which have the power to cause degenerative and life-threatening diseases.
Free radicals are produced from normal oxygen metabolism within the body, and from exposure to certain chemicals, environmental pollutants, sunlight, radiation, burns, cigarette smoke, drugs, alcohol, viruses, bacteria, parasites, dietary fats, and more.
VITAMIN A is necessary for growth and repair of body tissues, reduces susceptibility to infections, protects against air pollutants, counteracts night-blindness and weak eyesight, and aids in bone and teeth formation. Deficiency in vitamin A can lead to increased susceptibility to infections, rough or dry skin, loss of smell and appetite, and frequent fatigue.
VITAMIN C is essential for healthy teeth, gums and bones. It prevents scurvy, builds resistance to infection, aids in the prevention and treatment of the common cold, and aids in the absorption of iron. Vitamin C is a major antioxidant. According to Dr. Linus Pauling, "Vitamin C will decrease the risk of getting certain cancers by 75%." Deficiency of vitamin C may lead to bleeding gums, painful joints, bruising, nosebleeds, tooth decay, loss of appetite, muscular weakness, capillary weakness, and anemia.
VITAMIN E is a another major anti-oxidant. It retards cellular aging due to oxidation, supplies oxygen to the blood, strengthens the capillary walls, prevents the red blood cells from delivering destructive poisons, and prevents and dissolves blood clots. A deficiency of vitamin E may lead to a rupture of red blood cells, lack of sexual vitality, degenerative changes in the heart and other muscles, and dry skin.
VITAMIN D improves absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus is required for bone and teeth formation, and is essential in maintaining a stable nervous system and normal heart action. Deficiency of vitamin D may lead to tooth decay, softening of bones, improper healing of fractures, muscular weakness, inadequate absorption of calcium, and retention of phosphorus in the kidneys.
VITAMIN B1 plays a key role in the body's metabolic cycle for generating energy, aids in the digestion of carbohydrates, is essential for the normal functioning of the nervous system, muscles and heart, and promotes growth and good muscle tone. Deficiency of vitamin B1 may lead to the loss of appetite, weakness and fatigue, paralysis and nervous irritability, insomnia, loss of weight, mental depression and constipation.
VITAMIN B2 is necessary for carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism. It aids in the formation of antibodies and red blood cells, maintains cell respiration, and is necessary for the maintenance of good vision, skin, nails and hair. Deficiency of vitamin B2 may result in burning eyes, cracks and sores in the mouth and lips, bloodshot eyes, red tongue, dermatitis, retarded growth, trembling, and oily skin.
VITAMIN B3 improves circulation and reduces the cholesterol level in the blood. It maintains the nervous system, helps metabolize protein, sugar and fat, reduces high blood pressure, increases energy through proper utilization of food, prevents pellagra, and helps maintain a healthy skin, tongue and digestive system. Deficiency in vitamin B3 may result in pellagra, gastrointestinal disturbance, nervousness, headaches, fatigue, mental depression, vague aches and pains, irritability, loss of appetite, insomnia, skin disorders, muscular weakness, indigestion, bad breath, and canker sores.
VITAMIN B5 participates in the release of energy from carbohydrates, fats and protein, improves the body's resistance to stress, helps in cell building, helps the adrenal glands, and fights infections by building antibodies. Vitamin B5 deficiency may lead to skin abnormalities, retarded growth, digestive problems, vomiting, stomach stress, and muscle cramps.
VITAMIN B6 is necessary for the synthesis and breakdown of amino acids, the building blocks of protein. It also aids in fat and carbohydrate metabolism, aids in the formation of antibodies, maintains the central nervous system, aids in the removal of excess fluid of premenstrual women, promotes healthy skin, and reduces muscle spasms, leg cramps, nausea, and numbness and stiffness of hands. Vitamin B6 deficiency may result in nervousness, insomnia, skin eruptions, loss of muscular weakness, dermatitis, cramps, loss of hair, and water retention.
FOLIC ACID is necessary for DNA & RNA synthesis, which is essential for the growth and reproduction of all body cells, essential to the formation of red blood cells by its action on the bone marrow, and aids in amino acid metabolism. Deficiency may result in gastrointestinal disorders, anemia, Vitamin B-12 deficiency, and premature gray hair.
VITAMIN B12 helps in the formation and regeneration of red blood cells, thus helping prevent anemia. It is necessary for carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism, helps to maintain a healthy nervous system, promotes growth in children, and increases energy. Deficiency may lead to anemia, poor appetite, growth failure in children, tiredness, brain damage, nervousness, neuritis, degeneration of spinal cord, depression, and lack of balance.
BIOTIN aids in the utilization of protein, folic acid, vitamin B5, and Vitamin B-12, and promotes healthy hair. Biotin deficiency may lead to extreme exhaustion, drowsiness, muscle pain, loss of appetite, depression, and grayish skin color.
CALCIUM builds and maintains bones and teeth, regulates heart rhythm, eases insomnia, helps regulate the passage of nutrients in and out of the cell walls, assists in normal blood clotting, helps maintain proper nerve and muscle function, lowers blood pressure, and reduces blood cholesterol levels. Deficiency may result in arm and leg muscles spasms, softening of bones, back and leg cramps, brittle bones, rickets, poor growth, osteoporosis, tooth decay, and depression.
MAGNESIUM plays an important role in regulating the neuromuscular activity of the heart. it also helps maintain normal heart rhythm, is necessary for proper calcium and Vitamin C metabolism, and converts blood sugar into energy. Deficiency may result in calcium depletion, heart spasms, nervousness, muscular excitability, confusion, and kidney stones.
PHOSPHORUS is essential for utilization of carbohydrate, fats and proteins for growth, maintenance, repair of cells, and energy production. It is necessary for proper skeletal growth, tooth development, kidney functioning and transference of nerve impulses. Phosphorus works with calcium to develop and maintain strong bones and teeth. It also enhances use of other nutrients.
IODINE aids in the development and functioning of the thyroid gland, regulates the body's production of energy, helps burn excess fat by stimulating the rate of metabolism. Iodine deficiency may result in an enlarged thyroid gland, slow mental reaction, dry skin and hair, weight gain, and loss of physical and mental vigor.
ZINC is a powerful antioxidant that is necessary for protein synthesis, wound healing, and is vital for the development of the reproductive organs. It is vital for prostate functions and male hormone activity, it governs the contractility of muscles, is important for blood stability, maintains the body's alkaline balance, helps in normal tissue function, and aids in the digestion and metabolism of phosphorus. Zinc deficiency may result in delayed sexual maturity, prolonged healing wounds, white spots on finger nails, retarded growth, stretch marks, fatigue, decreased alertness, and an increased susceptibility to infections.
SELENIUM is another major antioxidant which protects cell membranes and prevents free radical generation, thereby decreasing the risk of cancer and disease of the heart and blood vessels. Medical surveys show that increased selenium intake decreases the risk of breast, colon, lung and prostate cancer. Selenium also preserves tissue elasticity and slows down the aging and hardening of tissues through oxidation. Selenium deficiency may result in premature aging and heart disease.

Deficiency may result in glucose intolerance in diabetics, arteriosclerosis, heart disease, depressed growth, obesity and tiredness.
MOLYBDENUM is an essential trace mineral. It is needed for the proper function of certain enzyme-dependent processes, including the metabolism of iron. Preliminary evidence indicates that molybdenum, through its involvement in detoxifying sulfites, might reduce the risk of sulfite-reactive asthma attacks.
POTASSIUM works with sodium to regulate the body's waste balance and normalize heart rhythms, aids in clear thinking by sending oxygen to the brain, preserves proper alkalinity of body fluids, stimulates the kidneys to eliminate poisonous body wastes, assists in reducing high blood pressure, and promotes healthy skin. Potassium deficiency may result in nervous disorders, respiratory failure, cardiac arrest, and muscle damage.
TRACE MINERALS are minerals that occur in tiny amounts or traces. They play a major role in health since even minute portions of them can powerfully affect health. They are essential in the assimilation and utilization of vitamins and other nutrients. They aid in digestion and provide the catalyst for many hormones, enzymes and essential body functions and reactions.
BORON may influence the production of hormones (including the active form of vitamin D), improve brain and psychological functions, and exert immune-boosting activity. Boron is essential to bone metabolism and the calcification of bones. It also is necessary for cartilage formation and repair. It affects calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus levels. Memory and brain function can be improved with boron. A deficiency can cause weak and fragile cell walls.
Flax seed oil is extracted from organically grown flax seeds using a special cold-pressing process, which minimizes the damaging effects of light, oxygen and heat. Flax seed oil increases the body's production of energy and also increases stamina, stimulates fat cells and increases the metabolic rate making it easier to burn off fat. It also is known to improve the absorption of calcium, strengthen finger and toe nails, and it can often improve the function of the liver. It is helpful in the treatment of Eczema or flaky skin, it can relieve the symptoms of Rheumatoid Arthritis, it can relieve the symptoms of Diabetes Mellitus, it can alleviate some allergies, and it helps prevent Atherosclerosis. Flax seed oil lowers high blood pressure in hypertension sufferers.
Grape seed and skin extract supplies oligomeric proanthocyanidins (OPC), red wine extract. Grape seed extract is a natural and powerful antioxidant. Red wine extract supports healthy blood vessels and connective tissues.
Amino acids complex are chemical substances used by the body to build the exact type of protein it needs. There are two types: essential and nonessential. While the body must get the essential amino acids from foods, it can manufacture the nonessential amino acids on its own if the diet is lacking in them. Of the approximately 80 amino acids found in nature, only 20 are necessary for proper human growth and function. Not only do they help make neurotransmitters, they also help produce hormones such as insulin, enzymes that activate bodily functions, and certain types of body fluids. In addition, they are essential for the repair and maintenance of organs, glands, muscles, tendons, ligaments, skin, hair, and nails. An amino acid deficiency is usually caused by a diet that is low in protein.
Siberian Ginseng is an herb used to fights fatigue and provides supplemental immune support. It also provides energy through times of strenuous exercise programs and supports and stimulates efficient adrenal function.
Green Tea is rich in polyphenols and has a great antioxidant power. It protects against several types of cancer and reduces the risk of heart disease and stroke. It is proven to help with weight loss, helps digestion, reduces bloating, and normalizes healthy bacteria in the intestines.
Yerba Mate energizes the body, stimulates mental alertness, aids in weight loss, cleanses the colon, relieves stress and fortifies the immune system.
Malnutrition is becoming an epidemic in our society today. Many authorities believe that most modern-day illness and dysfunction including birth defects, coronary heart disease, allergies, diabetes, cancer, arthritis, osteoporosis, diverticulitis, kidney stones, gallstones, both mental and neurological disorders, as well as other ailments and immune dysfunction are directly related to nutrition or a lack thereof. Today's Standard American Diet (SAD) doesn't provide the basic nutrient requirement for healthy living. Supplementation is needed to meet these requirements.
What can we do to help ensure our basic nutritional requirements are being met?
The body does not and cannot manufacture minerals or most vitamins. These can only be supplied and maintained by food intake or supplementation. Today's diet contributes to mineral depletion and deficiencies. The key however, is proper balance of vitamins and minerals. If the proper balance is not maintained, other minerals can be affected. For example, excessive calcium intake can affect magnesium absorption; too much zinc can deplete the body of copper. For this reason, it is important to take a multi-mineral/vitamin with the correct balance of vitamins and minerals which give the body what it needs without throwing anything out of balance.
Without the basics in your system, supplementation will first address the body's basic nutritional needs. For example, if you suffer from allergies and take Växa's Allersine, (containing important free-form amino acids which help with histamines) and your body is lacking a basic level of amino acids, the body's basic nutritional requirement will first be met before the more specific allergy problem is even addressed.
Växa's multi-mineral/vitamin, Daily Essentials, provides a great first step in giving the body a complete spectrum of vitamins including A, C, E, D, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12, and both essential and trace minerals. Växa's Daily Essentials provides the necessary balance along with synergistic qualities to ensure maximum results and absorption. Växa's Daily Essentials is also an excellent complimentary product to other supplementation.
