Vitamin and Mineral
Why Supplement?
Vitamin and Mineral Supplement with Resveratrol is a balanced high-potency, multi-nutrient formula in a base of one of nature’s superfoods. This product contains highly absorbable mineral chelates including trace elements, a balanced B-complex, and supportive nutrients to maintain daily health and vitality.
Immunotec has made its Vitamin and Mineral Supplement with Resveratrol the basis of the Daily Essentials Pack because this is a product that everyone can benefit from everyday. Even if you try to eat well, getting the optimal amount of nutrition in your diet can be very hard to do. Health experts have begun to realize that most people simply cannot eat well enough to meet their nutritional needs. In 2002, the American Medical Association stated:
Most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins by diet alone. Pending strong evidence of effectiveness from randomized trials, it appears prudent for ALL adults to take vitamin supplements. (JAMA 2002;287:3127-312)
It is for this reason that doctors are no longer trained to believe that if a person is following the national food guides, then they are getting all the vitamins, minerals and micronutrients they need. Foods today are not as nutrient-rich as they once were. This is due to the processing of our foods, the depletion of nutrients in our soil and the engineering of plants and animals.
Immunotec's Formula Choices
Immunotec’s team of doctors, scientists and nutrition experts are always on the cutting edge of the most current nutritional research. Vitamin recommendations have been a moving target over the past decades and a concerted effort has been underway to better determine our optimal needs. The key word here is “optimal”. In the past, recommendations have been based around what was required to avoid disease. More current thinking has evolved around what is best for your body to function optimally.
Each and every component in our formula has been highly scrutinized and adapted to the needs of our population. The vitamin D content is significantly higher that the majority of standard multivitamins you may find at the pharmacy or at the health-food store. This decision was based on recent clinical evidence that higher doses of vitamin D seemed protective against certain cancers and that those in the know have been advocating that we all need to increase our intake.
Micro-Nutrients ... Macro Benefits!
Most of us are quite familiar with vitamins like C and E, some of us even know about biotin. But how many people are aware that the human body also needs trace amounts of bismuth or bromine? What about caesium or cerium? These are what are called “trace elements” or micronutients and are essential to good health, but in exceptionally small amounts. It would be extremely difficult, if not impossible to add all this into a vitamin pill. That is the major reason that we have added “chlorella” into the mix. Chlorella is reputed to contain all the trace elements we need.
Chlorella - The "Superfood"
Chlorella is a very small member of the family of blue-green algae. According to plant science, it was one of the first organisms to be able to convert sunlight into biological energy! It provides a natural source of an incredible array of nutrients: proteins, essential amino acids, carbohydrates, vitamins, macrominerals, trace elements, and phytochemicals. Chlorella advocates have called it “The Perfect Food”.
The "French Paradox"
Medical specialists were mystified as to why natives of France were able to consume such rich fatty and sugary foods without succumbing to strokes, heart attacks and other cholesterol-related illnesses. Looking closer into the eating habits of this population, scientists realized that the consumption of red wine at many meals might be a part of the answer. Researchers believe that a pigmented molecule called “resveratrol” offers protection against artery-clogging plaque.
Resveratrol
This antioxidant molecule has given rise to a tremendous amount of exciting research, mostly focusing on its “anti-aging” potential. Resveratrol interplays with a newly discovered group of genes that regulate the aging process. A whole industry has sprung up around this group of molecules and resveratrol (“the red wine pill”) is becoming a highly sought-after supplement. Immunotec has included this innovative ingredient in its vitamin supplement!

Highlight Ingredients
- Vitamins A, C, D and E. Vitamin and Mineral Supplement with Resveratrol supplies you with healthy levels of these important vitamins. Especially important is that this formula provides 2500 IU of vitamin A (as beta-carotene). This level is supportive of good health without contributing to bone loss. You also get a full 800 IU of vitamin D. While the adult DV is only half this level, most health experts agree that daily requirements are too low for optimal health.
- Balanced B-Complex. B vitamins like folic acid, B6, B12 and thiamine, are the nutrients that drive energy production in the body. Vitamin and Mineral Supplement with Resveratrol provides a substantial dose of B vitamins to help you manage the energy demands of your day. This product also includes choline and inositol which are considered by many nutrition experts to be part of the B-Complex vitamins.
- Mineral Chelates. This product provides zinc, selenium, copper, manganese, and chromium as highly-bioavailable chelates. Some of these minerals like zinc and selenium, are important antioxidants, and all of them help to control hundreds of chemical reactions in the body. These minerals are a perfect complement to those found in Naturally Sourced Calcium.
- Chlorella. Chlorella is a type of blue-green algae that is incredibly nutrient rich. This superfood is more than 50-percent complete protein and also contains the nutrients A, E, B12, niacin, choline, folic acid, thiamine, copper, magnesium, zinc, potassium, and chlorophyll. Chlorella also supplies glyconutrients like rhamnose, ribose, mannose, and fructose.
- Resveratrol. Resveratrol is a potent plant antioxidant that is found in the skin of red grapes (as well as mulberries, peanuts, eucalyptus, and a few other plants). Researchers believe that it is this amazing substance that imparts most of the health benefits to red wine. While it might seem like a great thought to drink wine every day, alcohol has known ill effects on health when used frequently. Now with Immunotec’s Vitamin and Mineral Supplement, you can have the daily health benefits of red wine without the risk. Santé!
