Vitamin A
Vitamin A helps in the formation and maintenance of healthy teeth, skeletal and soft tissue, mucous membranes, and skin. It is also known as Retinol because it generates the pigments in the retina. Vitamin A promotes good vision, especially in dim light. It may also be required for reproduction and lactation. Beta Carotene, which has antioxidant properties, is a precursor to Vitamin A. The body regulates the conversion of beta-carotene to Vitamin A based on the body's needs. Vitamin A deficiency can increase the susceptibility to infectious diseases, as well as cause vision problems.Vitamin C
Vitamin C promotes healthy teeth and gums, helps absorption of iron, aids in the maintenance of normal connective tissue, and promotes wound healing. It also helps the body's immune system. Vitamin C should be consumed every day, since it is not a fat-soluble vitamin, and cannot be stored for later use. It is water soluble, and is therefore excreted regularly through the urine by the body. A deficiency of Vitamin C causes the periodontal disease scurvy.Vitamin D
Vitamin D promotes the body's absorption of calcium, which is essential for the normal development of healthy teeth and bones. It also helps maintain adequate blood levels of the minerals calcium and phosphorus. Vitamin D is also known as the "sunshine vitamin" because the body manufactures the vitamin after being exposed to sunshine. Vitamin D deficiency leads to soft bones or rickets.Vitamin E
Vitamin E is one of the body's most important antioxidant nutrients. Antioxidants protect the body tissue from the damage of oxidation. Antioxidants protect healthy cells from oxidative and free radical damage. Free radicals are unstable chemicals formed in the body during metabolism and from exposure to environmental sources, such as pollution and cigarette smoke. Free radicals are necessary for energy metabolism and immune function, but when an excessive number of free radicals are formed, they can attack healthy cells, especially cell membrane lipids and proteins. The overproduction of free radicals is thought to contribute to a number of degenerative diseases. Vitamin E is an especially valuable antioxidant in the cell membranes, especially red blood cells and tissues sensitive to oxidation, such as the lungs, eyes, and arteries. Vitamin E also protects the liver and other tissues from the free-radical damage of toxicants, such as mercury, lead, ozone, nitrous oxide, carbon tetrachloride, benzene, cresol, and various drugs. Related to its antioxidant properties, Vitamin E is important for normal immune function, and many studies show that it prevents lipid peroxidation of blood lipoproteins, such as LDL-cholesterol. Vitamin E is important in the formation of red blood cells and the use of Vitamin K.Thiamine
Thiamine is one of the B Vitamins, a group of water-soluble vitamins that participate in many of the chemical reactions in the body. Thiamine (B1) helps the body cells convert carbohydrates into energy. It is also essential for the functioning of the heart, muscles, and nervous system. A deficiency of thiamine can cause weakness, fatigue, psychosis, and nerve damage.Riboflavin
Riboflavin is a water-soluble vitamin required by the body for health, growth and reproduction; one of the B-complex vitamins. Alternative name: Vitamin B2. Riboflavin works with the other B vitamins to help release energy from carbohydrates. Deficiency symptoms include dry and cracked skin and eyes that are sensitive to bright light.Niacin
Niacin is part of the Vitamin B complex, a group of water-soluble vitamins required by the body for health, growth and reproduction. Niacin assists in the functioning of the digestive system, skin, and nerves. It is also important for the conversion of food to energy. A deficiency of niacin causes pellagra. The symptoms include inflamed skin, digestive problems, and mental impairment.Vitamin B-6
Vitamin B-6 is a water-soluble vitamin of the Vitamin B complex. Alternative name: Pyridoxine. Vitamin B-6 plays a role in the synthesis of antibodies in the immune system. It helps maintain normal nerve function and acts in the formation of red blood cells. It is also required for the chemical reactions of proteins. The higher a body's protein intake, the more the need for Vitamin B-6.Vitamin B-12
Vitamin B-12, like the other B vitamins, is important for metabolism. It helps in the formation of red blood cells and in the maintenance of the central nervous system.Folic Acid
Folic Acid is a water-soluble vitamin of the B-complex. Alternative name: B-9, Folate. Folic acid acts as a coenzyme with B-12 and Vitamin C in the breakdown (metabolism) of proteins and the synthesis of new proteins. Folic Acid is necessary for the production of red blood cells and the synthesis of DNA (which controls heredity), as well as tissue growth and cell function. It also stimulates the formation of digestive acids. Folic acid deficiency may cause poor growth, graying hair, inflammation of the tongue, mouth ulcers, and diarrhea. It may also result in hemolytic and megaloblastic anemias. Pregnant women often require additional supplementation as prescribed by the health care provider. Adequate folic acid is important to women in their childbearing years because it has been shown to prevent some kinds of birth defects.Biotin & Pantothenic Acid
Pantothenic acid and Biotin are water-soluble vitamins of the B vitamin complex. Pantothenic acid is essential for the metabolism of food. It is essential in the synthesis of hormones and cholesterol. Biotin is essential for the metabolism of proteins and carbohydrates and in the synthesis of hormones and cholesterol.Ultra CAL Calcium & Magnesium
Function: Bone nutrition
This Osteo-guard formula (Women's Pack Only) is the best calcium source for those at risk of osteoporosis. The calcium source in Osteo-guard occurs naturally in whole bone, and is the only one shown to not only reduce calcium loss, but also to put calcium back into bones. This means bones are stronger and are resistant to breaking with age. All other natural bone minerals and organic constituents such as collagen that lets calcium do its best for healthy bones are also present. This Osteo-guard formula also contains boron, and vitamin K, which have extra benefits for bone health. Studies show calcium hydroxyapatite whole bone extract, the major ingredient in Osteo-gard, is 100% better absorbed than calcium gluconate. The magnesium blend is a special patented combination with high bioavailability, maintaining a proper supplemental intake ration with calcium. Although magnesium comprises only about one percent of bone mineral content, it still significantly affects both bone mineral metabolism and the matrix that provides its structure. Adequate dietary magnesium maintains optimum bone function and structure. Similarly, copper and manganese are important in optimizing the formation of cross-linkages that strengthen the bone mineral matrix, while boron is also important in maintaining normal absorption of calcium and magnesium, as well as metabolism of copper. The isoflavone derivative ipriflavone has also been shown to promote healthy function and structure of bone by inhibiting osteoclast activity, and perhaps stimulating osteoblasts. All of these ingredients contained in UltraCAL work together to help maintain healthy bone.Manganese
An essential trace mineral necessary for general health.Health Function: Osteo-support; Cardiovascular healthCopper
An essential trace mineral that is present in all of the body tissues.
Copper, along with iron, helps in the formation of red blood cells. It
also helps in keeping the blood vessels, nerves, immune system and
bones healthy.Boron
Health Function: Bone healthProprietary Blend: Ipriflavone, L-Glutamic Acid & Alfalfa for bone health.
Zinc
Zinc
is an important trace mineral. It is second only to iron in its
concentration in the body. Fruits and vegetable are NOT good sources of
zinc, because zinc in plant proteins is not as available for use by the
body as the zinc from animal proteins. Therefore, low-protein diets and
vegetarian diets are low in zinc. Zinc plays an important role in the
proper functioning of the immune system in the body. It is required for
the enzyme activities necessary for cell division, cell growth, and
wound healing. It plays a role in the acuity of the senses of smell and
taste. Zinc is also involved in the metabolism of carbohydrates.
Symptoms associated with zinc deficiency include: slow growth, decrease
in wound healing, loss of hair, taste-impaired, smell-impaired, more
frequent infections and inability or difficulty in adapting vision to
the dark.Selenium
An essential trace mineral necessary for general health.Health Function: antioxidantChromium
Chromium is an essential mineral that is not made by the body and must
be obtained from the diet. Chromium is important in the metabolism of
fats and carbohydrates. Chromium stimulates fatty acid and cholesterol
synthesis and is an activator of several enzymes. Chromium deficiency
may show itself as impaired glucose tolerance. It is seen in older
people with non insulin-dependent diabetes, and in infants with
protein-calorie malnutrition. Supplementation of chromium helps with
management of these conditions, but supplementation is not a substitute
for other diabetes treatment.Molybdenum
An essential trace mineral necessary for general health.
Health Function: Bone healthPotassium
Potassium is a mineral that is involved in both electrical and cellular
functions in the body. (In the body it is classified as an
electrolyte). Potassium is a very important mineral to the human body.
It assists in the regulation of the acid-base and water balance in the
blood and the body tissues. It assists in protein synthesis from amino
acids and in carbohydrate metabolism. It is necessary for the building
of muscle and for normal body growth. A deficiency of potassium can
occur in people with chronic disease or as a result of the aging
process. The most common problems associated with reduced potassium
levels are hypertension, congestive heart failure, cardiac arrhythmias,
depression and fatigue. A variety of conditions can cause the loss of
potassium from the body. The most common of these conditions are
vomiting, diarrhea, and other gastrointestinal problems. Renal disease
and diabetes, depending on the stage of either, can also cause
fluctuations in the levels of potassium. Additionally, many medications
can cause depletion of potassium (such as diuretics, cortisone,
prolonged use of aspirin, and laxatives). The most common symptom of
potassium depletion is fatigue. Other symptoms of potassium deficiency
include slow reflexes, muscle weakness, and dry skin. A quick loss of
potassium could lead to cardiac arrhythmias. Severe potassium
deficiency symptoms include decreased heart rate, extreme muscle
weakness, and bone fragility.Marine Lipid Triglycerides (Omega-3 fatty acids)
Health Function: Cardiovascular health, healthy skin, hair, nails
A proper balance of essential fatty acids is important for good health,
as are vitamins and minerals. In their polyunsaturated forms, these are
indispensable for many physiologic processes and are integral
components of nerve cells, cell membranes, and vital hormone-like
substances known a prostaglandius. Prostaglandins help regulate
numerous body functions including immune response during inflammation.
Omega-3 fatty acids may be able to modify sodium channels by binding to
the channel proteins. This could then prevent ischemia-induced
ventricular fibrillation and sudden cardiac death.Trace Elements(from Sea Vegetation)
Health Function: Minerals necessary for general healthExecutive Stress Proprietary Blend
Health Function: Nutrients, minerals & vitamins to boost the body's defenses against stress.Ginkgo biloba Extract (leaf)
Ginkgo is generally accepted as a remedy for minor deficits in brain
function, such as occur with advancing age. It is used to improve
concentration and combat short-term due to clogged arteries in the
brain, and to treat dizziness, ringing in the ears, headache, and
emotional hypersensitivity accompanied by anxiety. For people with
intermittent circulation in the legs, it helps permit longer pain-free
walks.Silymarin (seed), Lemon Bioflavonoids, Brown Rice Protein
Concentrate Betaine HCl, L-Glycine, N-Acetyl-LCysteine, SOD/Glutathione
Peroxidase L-Methionine, Proanthocyanidins (Red Wine Grapes), Glutamic
Acid and L-Glutathione (reduced)Co-Enzyme Q10
Coenzyme Q10, (CoQ10), also known as ubiquinone, has been receiving an
increasing amount of attention over the past 5 years for its
cardioprotective abilities. CoQ10 is a fat-soluble molecule synthesized
from cholesterol and located predominantly in mitochondria (the cell's
powerhouse) where it plays a vital role in energy production.
Specifically, CoQ10 is crucial for the proper transfer of electrons
through the mitochondrial respiratory chain. Given that heart muscle
requires a tremendous amount of energy to function properly, it is not
unusual that significant levels of CoQ10 can be found in heart muscle.
Since CoQ10 levels have been found to be lower under certain
circumstances, researchers have been investigating the effect that
supplemental CoQ10 can have on heart function. Not surprisingly,
numerous clinical studies have demonstrated improvements in functional
parameters of the heart in patients with congestive heart failure after
supplementation withCoQ10
CoQ10
treatment prior to bypass procedures has also yielded more positive
outcomes when compared with patients who did not receive
supplementation. CoQ10 levels have also been shown to be reduced in
patients taking statin drugs, as cholesterol is required for the
synthesis of CoQ10 in the body. CoQ10 has also been shown to be an
effective antioxidant, protecting against lipid peroxidation, DNA and
protein oxidation and is also capable of functioning synergistically to
help regenerate other antioxidants.Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex
Bioflavonoids (also called flavonoids) are a class of phytochemicals
that are potent antioxidants, which scavenge many potentially damaging
free radicals.

syndrome. Most of these patients also suffer from chronic fatigue,
fibromyalgia, or at least are run down and vitamin, mineral, and enzyme
depleted. In addition to clinical treatment, it is imperative that the
overall health and resistance of the person be improved so the body has
the tools and strength to fight back and recover.I
have been unable to discover a vitamin, mineral, and enzyme system that
delivers the correct amounts and quality of the ingredients needed for
recovery and overall body health. As a result, these patients have had
to simple do the best they could to find these vitamins, minerals, and
enzymes in the grocery store or health food store. The quality of these
"grocery store vitamins" is unknown and the dosage of the various
ingredients is random. Normally only trace amounts of the supplements
are supplied, as opposed to the Recommended Daily Allowance. I found
that most of the patients simply gave up trying to find the correct
supplements because it was just too complicated.Several years ago, I contacted Douglas Laboratories. They are arguably the highest quality vitamin, mineral, enzyme laboratory in the world. I began working with
their top chemists developing the ultimate supplement packet for women
and for men. DYNO Pack for Women and DYNO Pack for Men are the results
of that collaboration. Please notice the ingredients included in each
pack as well as the percent RDA listed on each bottle. I believe the
combination, dosage, and quality of the individual vitamins, minerals,
and enzymes speak for themselves.These
supplements are excellent for men and women, regardless of whether or
not you suffer from chronic fatigue or fibromylagia. Each bottle
contains one month's supply of supplement at a cost of $95. If
purchased as separate supplements in grocery or health food stores at
these dosages, the cost would be considerably higher and the quality
unknown.
