Vitamins

Vitamin A & D [Vital Nutrition]. Vitamin A was the first vitamin to be discovered. It is essential in maintaining good vision and promoting normal growth. It occurs in animal tissues as retinol but in plants as carotene, a precursor of vitamin A. This vitamin is necessary for the health of epithelial cells and the immune system. It is also required for the digestion of protein. It is essential for lactation, reproduction and the formation of steroid hormones. It is used to form the cells lining the digestive, respiratory, reproductive and urinary tracts and in all tissue linings of the body. It is also vital for healthy skin and is a famous antioxidant. It is best absorbed when taken with oil or fat. Each capsule contains 10,000 IU of vitamin A derived from fish oils, or 200 percent of the Daily Value.
Vitamin D works synergistically with vitamin A. It plays a role in absorbing and regulating calcium and phosphorus. This vitamin helps the body synthesize protein and helps build strong bones, teeth and skin. It is vital to the health of the nervous system and kidneys. It can be derived from the sun’s action on oils secreted and reabsorbed by the skin. But if skin is tan or older, it is less capable of producing vitamin D.
Each capsule of Vitamin A & D contains 400 IU of vitamin D, which is 100 percent of the Daily Value.
CAUTION: If pregnant or planning pregnancy, daily vitamin A intake should not exceed 5,000 IU. Quantities in excess of 10,000 IU may result in reproductive hazards or birth defects.
Take 1 capsule daily with a meal.
                                                        

Vitamin B-Complex [Vital Nutrition]. Many different vitamin B compounds are grouped under the name B-complex. These vitamins are easily lost in refining and cooking; they also can be washed from the body by coffee, tea, alcohol and heavy perspiration. Physically stressful conditions can also deplete the body of B vitamins.

B vitamins are particularly important for the nervous system. They are also vital for good digestive function and enzyme reactions that control energy, circulation, hormones and overall health. Their actions are interdependent, so for greatest efficiency the complex should be taken together.

Vitamin B6 [Vital Nutrition] is a cofactor that helps activate over 100 different enzymes involved in hundreds of biochemical tasks in the body. It is used to metabolize amino acids (protein management) as well as lipids (fats) and nucleic acids. As protein intake increases, so does the need for B6. This vitamin may help affect homocysteine levels, a factor in cardiovascular health. Vitamin B6 is important for the production of energy and for proper nervous system function. Each tablet provides 50 mg of vitamin B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride), which is 2,500 percent of the Daily Value. It comes in a base of wheat germ flour and contains no animal byproducts (suitable for vegetarians).

They help promote energy, maintain the nervous system, improve immune functions and buffer the effects of stress.  Notably, the B vitamins influence the health of most of the internal organs of the body.  Vitamins can be obtained from the diet, but some of the vitamins, especially B and C vitamins, are easily lost or destroyed during cooking and processing. Liquid B vitamins may be essential for vegetarians since dietary sources of vitamin B12 are mostly foods of animal origin.

Vitamin D3 [Skeletal, Immune]. The body manufactures Vitamin D through sun exposure, which makes it difficult to obtain adequate amounts of vitamin D during cloudy or winter months. Vitamin D comes in two forms, D2 and D3. Of the two, D3 is more bioactive.
 
In the body, vitamin D is responsible for maintaining normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus and for helping to build strong bones.
