Why Do I Need Vitamins And Supplements?

While we firmly believe that farm to table, raw organic fruits and vegetables are the key to optimum health and well-being, we understand that one of the challenges of today's busy lifestyle is not only finding the time to shop for healthy foods but to prepare them. 

Most of our daily diet and lifestyle choices are not conducive to a long and healthy life. Furthermore, the majority of our food supply is over processed and contaminated, leading to a depleted nutrient content.  That is why we feel that the need for vitamin and mineral supplements is greater today than ever before. 

Because your digestive system becomes less effective with age and when your body is under stress, absorption of all of nutrients becomes more difficult. Research shows that after age 50, our body's utilization of essential nutrients is greatly reduced. So when nutrient absorption may be most critical, our bodies lack the ability to digest tablets and gelatin capsules.

Why Liquid Vitamins?  Many health and wellness experts agree that the most  bio-available multivitamins are found in the liquid form. Bio-available means the percent of active ingredients that actually reaches the bloodstream.  Liquid multivitamins have a 98% absorption rate compared to pill and tablet forms, which have an approximate 20% absorption rate. What that means is with pills and tablets, your body is not getting the full nutritional benefit. Liquid vitamins are:

• Gentler on the stomach.
• Easy to swallow.
• Easily digestible - no need to break them down to absorb them.

The key to nutrient effectiveness is directly related to the amount of active ingredients and the rate of their delivery and assimilation into the bloodstream. When nutrients are taken in this liquid form, the bio-availability is very high and very effective.Vitamins from supplements are absorbed the same way as vitamins from food sources; they have the same outcome.

So, help your body to achieve optimal health by supplementing your healthy diet with a natural plant-based, whole food, liquid multivitamin with minerals.
