Health Benefits
Proper nutrition is the foundation of general wellness. Good health habits require personal effort, and LifePak has been designed for those who have decided to include nutritional supplementation as part of a program of eating well, exercising regularly, and maintaining other good health habits, such as not smoking and getting adequate sleep. But in today's busy world, consuming a well-balanced diet is difficult at the best of times. Many people consume fast foods high in saturated fats and low in vitamins and minerals. LifePak was formulated to supplement the nutritional needs of people at all stages of life, enabling them to enjoy the benefits of optimised nutrition.
LifePak is five supplements in one:
1. High potency antioxidant formula includes: vitamin C, vitamin E, tocopherol, flavonoids, carotenoids, and the mineral cofactors selenium, zinc, copper and manganese. All of these nutrients can benefit the body by neutralising free radicals. Antioxidants act as free radical scavengers. The right types and amounts of antioxidant nutrients acting as free radical scavengers are important for the body.
LifePak includes significant amounts of antioxidants such as the carotenoids, lutein, natural lycopene and a number of potent bioflavonoids, similar to the body's own enzymes and anthocyanins - the most powerful natural free radical scavenger yet discovered. Dietary deficiencies of vitamin B, C, E and iron can lead to damage of the DNA in cells. The combination of vitamin B, C, E and iron with alpha-lipoic acid and over 20 protective nutrients can help you feel better longer, as well as preventing dietary deficiencies. Four critical minerals - Selenium, Copper, Zinc and Manganese are antioxidant co-factors required to activate your body's internal antioxidant system. LifePak is the most innovative multi-vitamin/mineral supplement to combine all of these antioxidants.
The key active constituents of the high potency antioxidant formula include:
- Betacarotene: a phytonutrient and antioxidant. Betacarotene can be converted into vitamin A in the body as needed.
- Vitamin C: a powerful antioxidant, vitamin C also augments the production of important components to improve and/or maintain general well-being. Vitamin C is also necessary for the production of collagen, a protein found in teeth, bones and skin.
- Vitamin E: one of the most scientifically validated antioxidants known, vitamin E is an important antioxidant for the healthy functioning of our body.
- Tocopherols: as a member of the vitamin E family, tocopherols display antioxidant properties by scavenging free radicals.
- Selenium: a trace mineral that provides dietary support for the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which supports the normal antibody production.
- Copper, zinc and manganese are antioxidant co-factors required to activate your body's internal antioxidant system.
2. Balanced B vitamin formula includes: Thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, vitamin B6, folate, vitamin B12, and pantothenic acid. The B-vitamins help maintain a healthy nervous system and are necessary cofactors in the use of the body's resources. Several B-vitamins (vitamin B6, vitamin B12, and folic acid) help maintain normal homocysteine levels in the blood. LifePak delivers cardiovascular support with natural vitamin E and B-vitamins.
The active constituents of the balanced B-vitamin formula include:
- Thiamin (vitamin B1): essential for the use of carbohydrate, fat and protein. Thiamin also supports initiation of nerve impulses.
- Riboflavin (vitamin B2): needed for red blood cell formation, antibody production, growth and cell respiration. Riboflavin also plays a role in the use of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins.
- Niacin (vitamin B3): needed for proper circulation and healthy skin; also assists the functioning of the nervous system and the use of carbohydrates, fats and proteins.
- Pyridoxine (vitamin B6): an essential vitamin necessary for the proper use of amino acids. It is also essential in normal red blood cell formation.
- Folate (folic acid): provides dietary support for normal DNA synthesis, cell division and development of red blood cells.
- Vitamin B12: necessary for the maintenance of a normal, healthy nervous system. It also assists in the body's use of carbohydrates, fat and protein.
- Pantothenic Acid: converted by the body to coenzyme A, an important catalyst in the use of carbohydrates, fat and protein for energy. Pantothenic acid also assists in the formation of red blood cells.
3. Complete bone support formula includes: Calcium, magnesium, vitamins D, and K. Minerals act as cofactors in metabolic functions that include growth.
The key constituents of complete bone support formula include:
- Alpha-Lipoic Acid: acts in a complex with thiamin and niacin in the metabolism of glucose. It is also an antioxidant, effective against both water and fat-soluble free radicals.
- Calcium: an essential mineral that is vital for normal bone formation and maintenance. Regular exercise and a healthy diet with enough calcium helps teen, young adult Caucasian and Asian women, and middle-aged women with a family history of osteoporosis, maintain good bone health and may reduce their risk of osteoporosis later in life. Adequate calcium is important, but a daily intake above about 2,000mg is not likely to provide additional benefit.
- Vitamin D: important for maintaining normal bone structures due to its ability to regulate calcium and bone metabolism.
- Vitamin K: assists in the production of proteins found in bone and plasma.
- Magnesium: assists the body in assimilating calcium and potassium and is critical to enzyme activity. Approximately 60% of the magnesium in the body is found in bone structures.
- Zinc: is vital for the normal structure and function of cell membranes and is vital for the formation of teeth and bones. Zinc may play a role in calcium update in bone.
4. Phytonutrient formula includes: Carotenoids, flavonoids and isoflavones, which have powerful antioxidant effects. Phytonutrients are chemical compounds found in plants that possess certain nutritional qualities specific to the plants that they are extracted from. LifePak offers cell protection against free radical attacks with a catechin-rich polyphenol and flavonoid blend. A comprehensive supplement providing complete nutritional support for the improvement of general well-being with vitamin A, C, and E.
The key active constituents of phytonutrient formula include:
- Betacarotene: a phytonutrient and antioxidant. Betacarotene can be converted into vitamin A in the body as needed.
- Lutein: a beneficial phytonutrient carotenoid that provides nutritional support for healthy eyes.
- Lycopene: a recognised antioxidant nutrient similar to other carotenoids, such as beta-carotene or lutein.
- Curcumin: an antioxidant flavonoid extracted from turmeric that helps support general health and well-being.
- Grape Seed Extract: a bioflavonoid antioxidant with powerful proanthocyanins. These flavonoids have been shown to work synergistically with vitamin C.
- Soy Isoflavones: Genistein and daidzen are two antioxidant compounds that have been identified in soy.
- Green Tea: provides stronger protection from free radical damage to cells than well-known antioxidant vitamins C and E.
5. Complete trace element supplement includes: Iron, zinc, copper, selenium, manganese, chromium, molybdenum and iodine. Trace elements function as cofactors and coenzymes in the body's chemical process. These essential nutrients are required in small quantities.
The key active constituents of complete trace element formula include:
- Zinc: an essential mineral that assists more than 70 enzymes involved in many body processes, and is essential to maintaining good health and well-being.
- Manganese: essential component for enzymes, including superoxide dismutase (an antioxidant complex). Plays a role in the formation of protein and connective tissue.
- Iodine: plays an important role in mental and physical development.
- Chromium: an essential mineral that assists insulin in transporting glucose into the cells.
- Iron: assists in the formation of hemoglobin and myoglobin, proteins found in red blood cells, which carry oxygen in the bloodstream and to the muscles.
- Copper: helps in the formation of hemoglobin, red blood cells, and bone; in combination with zinc and vitamin C in the body, copper plays a role in the formation of elastin, a naturally occurring substance in the body that helps maintain the firmness of the skin.
- Selenium: a trace mineral that provides dietary support for the antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase, which supports normal antibody production.
- Molybdenum: is a component of enzymes, which are necessary for the oxidation of fats.
