What are vitamins and how do they work? |
| Vita-Complete: All vitamins are organic food substances that with few exceptions (vitamin
D, and niacin) the body cannot make. Vitamins are indispensable to the
normal functioning of human body. They are necessary for growth, energy,
and general well-being. They must be supplied in the diet or in dietary
supplements. Without vitamins, humans cannot stay alive. They are needed
in every single organ in the human body. As organs perform their
functions, vitamins assist them and participate in a body chemical
reactions. |
|
What are minerals and why body needs them? |
| Vita-Complete: Minerals are
non-organic substances necessary for proper functioning of the body.
There are 60 minerals! in the body out of which 22 are considered
necessary for good health. While human body can manufacture some
vitamins, it cannot manufacture a single mineral! The importance of
minerals is clear when it is realized that all body tissues and fluids
contain some or all minerals. Minerals are in bones, teeth, soft tissue,
muscle, blood, and nerve cells. They are indispensable for mental and
physical well-being. All the complex substances the body needs to build
new and healthy cells, are dependent on minerals. The human body cannot
maintain good health without a complete set of minerals that are
included in the daily diet. |
|
What are trace minerals? |
| Vita-Complete: In the human
body, there are minerals that exist in minute quantities and traces, yet
they play a major role in health, being essential to the assimilation
and use of vitamins and other nutrients. |
|
Why Vita-Complete and other manufacturers
sells supplements containing vitamins and minerals? |
| Vita-Complete: All
vitamins require for their proper functioning presence of some minerals.
Cell breakdown, leading to diseases, is the result of missing of some
minerals or vitamins. There is 'working relationship' between vitamins
and minerals. For this reason vitamins may be ineffective without
minerals. |
|
Do I need to take vitamins and minerals
supplements? |
| Vita-Complete: There is no
simple answer to this question. Vitamins are needed in small amounts. It
is not necessary to take vitamin and mineral supplements by healthy
individuals following healthy full diet and healthy living. In fact
taking excess of vitamins and minerals can be dangerous and can increase
the risk for kidney stones, liver and kidney damage. However, people
drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes and exposed to stress or pollution
'loose' the vitamin and minerals in accelerated pace causing the
deficiency. Some vitamins and minerals are expelled from the body with
urine when a person drinks, even small amounts of alcohol contained in
bear, wine or hard liquor. Smoking prevents proper functioning of some
vitamins and stress 'burns' them. |
|
What supplements do I need? |
| Vita-Complete: Vita-Complete
sells different formulas of the vitamin and mineral supplements. The
needs for vitamins changes with age and the vitamins that are formulated
for children will not be as effective on a 60 years old body as the
formula design specifically for seniors. In addition as people grow
older they encounter different stressful situation, smoke cigarettes and
drink alcohol that destroys some of the vital ingredients necessary for
the body. For these reasons we offer:

Is there a difference between vitamin from
natural sources or synthetic? |
| Vita-Complete: Vitamins
from food and synthetic have virtually the same action in the body that
do not distinguishes the difference between vitamins from foods and
supplement pills. However, the raw materials used in production of the
supplements can come from various sources and substantially differ in
the quality. Vita-Complete uses only the top of the line ingredients in the manufacturing
process. It is true that this increases prices of Vita-Complete products but it is considered that
by doing so, the purest and the best product is provided. Vita-Complete
considers it to be of utmost importance to sell the best product
available. |
|
Do children need vitamin and mineral supplements? |
| Vita-Complete: A human body
begins to build itself from the food it absorbs from the mother's womb
and to proper development must be provided with all necessary
ingredients. If there is a deficiency of vitamins and minerals, a child
may develop a deficiency disease and not develop properly. They do need
increased amount of some vitamins and minerals, while some others can
safely be skipped. This is a reason why children should not be fed 'adult'
supplements. Again, if the child eats properly and has a
balanced well prepared diet probably no supplement is needed. On the
other hand how often children refuse to eat spinach, or broccoli that
provide their organisms with, enough calcium needed at this point to
build new growth bone. Moreover, the effects of serious illness, or even
a cold, flu, other virus or even pollution may have serious, negative
effect on a child's development and adding vitamin and mineral
supplements may be necessary. |
|
What effects can have absence of vitamins and minerals in the body? |
Vita-Complete: In essence
without vitamins, and minerals humans cannot survive. The deficiency
cause diseases which may even lead to a slow and painful death!
