Two-Per-Day Tablets
|
| Adequate intake of vitamins and minerals is key to optimal health.48
But, since it is virtually impossible to eat enough food to get all the
nutrients the body needs on a daily basis, taking multivitamin
supplements is the healthy alternative. That is why Life Extension
developed Life Extension Mix™ back in 1983. However, some people are
averse to swallowing the nine tablets per day recommended to get the
maximum health benefits demonstrated in scientific studies. For those
people, Life Extension has formulated a two-per-day multivitamin
supplement that, although not as comprehensive as the Life Extension Mix
formulas, provides the maximum amount of active ingredients that can fit
into two tablets to confer some health benefits.48
A study published in JAMA demonstrated the health benefits
of taking daily vitamins by pointing out “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.”48
The same JAMA issue, in its scientific review, reveals that
inadequate intake of vitamins B6, B12, E, D, and folate are associated
with less than optimal health.
Other crucial nutrients included in the Two-Per-Day Tablets include
biotin, which may be used as part of your diet to maintain a healthy
blood sugar level in those already within normal range;49
lycopene,50 one of the most
effective antioxidant nutrients; and lutein, a carotenoid that is
beneficial to eye health.51,52*
With relatively high amounts of folic acid, vitamin D3, zinc,
lycopene, lutein, chromium, selenium, and B-complex vitamins,
Two-Per-Day Tablets can stand up to any multivitamin supplement on the
market. In fact, compared to Centrum®, Two-Per-Day Tablets provides
about:
- 8 times more vitamin C
- 6 times more vitamin E
- 6 times more lycopene
- 20 times more lutein
- 10 times more biotin
- 37 times more vitamin B6
- 5 times more selenium
- 50 times more vitamin B1
- 50 times more vitamin B12
- At least twice as much folic acid, zinc, and many other
nutrients
Two-Per-Day Tablets are an excellent choice for those seeking a
premium-quality nutrient supplement that far surpasses off-the-shelf
brands. |
