You want to feel better when you wake up in the morning. You want stronger hair and healthier skin. You want natural energy that lasts all day and a body that's prepared to fight off colds and sickness. You want to recover faster from workouts and you want to work out longer.
To do all this, you're going to need elite ingredients.
And we're not talking about just a couple ingredients. We're talking about:
Reality check … food isn't what it used to be. The reality is that our bodies need help to get the nutrients that are missing from our whole foods. After years of research and taking the best of what Mother Nature has to offer, we created a totally unique combination of specialized vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that work synergistically to support our body's systems at the cellular level.
Think of this as a vitamin shot without the needle. Our powerful complex blend is unrivaled and it unlocks our body's natural production of cellular energy. You know the happy feeling you get on a warm, sunny day? There's science behind it.
Vitamin D delivers incredible "feel good" qualities, and is known as the sunshine vitamin. It's also a premier immune-system builder that is important for bone development. Prolonged deficiency in adults can lead to osteoporosis. It's also vitally important
for our growth years.
Studies have shown vitamin D to significantly enhance positive effect — and possibly reduce negative effect — responses in our mood. In 1998, the University of Newcastle in Australia discovered that doses of vitamin D significantly improved the mood of seasonal depression sufferers.
Again in 1999, scientists Bruce Hollis, Michael Gloth and Wasif Alam completed a study showing large oral doses of vitamin D significantly improved mood in patients with seasonal affective disorder.
Vitamin D is widely involved in brain function. The reported biological effects of vitamin D in the nervous system include increased glutathione levels. Glutathione is also one of our body's key antioxidant defenses.
It is becoming increasingly clear that sufficient daily doses of vitamin D3 are superior to less frequent higher doses. It is worth noting that vitamin D2 is not the preferred vitamin D. Vitamin D3 is the preferred form and is the same form that our body naturally produces from sun exposure. Vitamin D2 is less effective at providing the myriad of benefits conferred by vitamin D3.

Vitamin B1 (thiamin) helps metabolize carbohydrates for the production of energy. It also possesses antioxidant, cognitive, mood-elevating and detoxification properties. Deficiencies in Vitamin B1 can lead to slower memory recall, difficulty focusing thoughts and a depressed mood.
Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) is essential for the metabolism of fat, carbohydrates and proteins. It's very important for protecting the body from free radical damage and promoting healthy skin and eyes.
Niacin is a water-soluble B vitamin. This means the body cannot store it and must consume it daily. Niacin plays an important role in skin, digestive and nerve health. Niacin also helps the body convert food into energy. Niacin is commonly found in seeds and nuts.
Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) aids in the metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins, as well as synthesizing a coenzyme for metabolizing fatty acids. It is also vital for the maintenance of normal adrenal function, stress regulation, nerve transmission and facilitating detoxification pathways.
Vitamin B6 is needed for more than 100 enzymes in our bodies and is crucial to the production of red blood cells. It is a major player in the metabolism of proteins, especially with respect to the synthesis of neurotransmitters. In their phosphorylated form, it is rare to see this level of an ingredient in dietary supplements.
Biotin (B7) bolsters our B vitamin complex while providing added support for healthy nails and hair. Biotin is a key vitamin in promoting healthy growth and strength of fingernails and hair. Biotin plays a major role in cell growth and metabolizing fatty acids and amino acids.
Folate is essential for the formation of red and white blood cells and the production of normal cells lining blood vessels and mucus membranes. It is critical for forming amino acids, regulating gastrointestinal function, DNA synthesis, cardiovascular health, normal cellular division/development and anti-inflammatory processes.
Vitamin B12 is a vital nutrient needed to help make DNA and keep nerve and blood cells healthy. B12 plays an important role in supporting the body's adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production, the energy our cells run on. B12 as methylcobalamin helps support healthy and restful sleep cycles.
Cyanocobalamin is the most common source of B12 used in supplements. It is also the hardest for your body to absorb and benefit from. Cyanocobalamin contains a cyanide molecule. Hence the prefix "cyano." Cyanide is a poisonous substance that must be removed from the body. Cyanocobalamin does not contain enough cyanide to pose a poisonous health risk, but regardless, the body must cleave off the cyanide molecule and remove it from the body. This process taxes your detoxification system and burns antioxidants while ridding your body of the cyanide. Once the cyanide molecule is cleaved off, the cobalamin must be attached to a methyl so the body can utilize the B12.
Methylcobalamin is a natural form of B12. It is already in the methylated form and readily utilized by the body. This means it has tremendously better absorption, better retention, and does not contain any toxic components that the body must eliminate.
So why doesn't every product use methyl? Because it can cost up to 100 times as much as the cheaper cyanocobalamin. Companies can still advertise their products have B12 when they use cyanocobalamin. It takes a savvy consumer to read the fine print and understand the source.
