Sci-MX Multi-Vitamin Complex 60 Capsules
Multivitamin and mineral supplements are perhaps the most important single supplement that should be consumed by athletes and active people. For the human body to perform at its maximum potential, it must be supplied with a vast and complex array of vital nutrients. Deficiency in just one of these essential vitamins or minerals interferes with metabolic pathway that produces optimum efficiency, and performance declines. Daily consumption of a high-potency multi-vitamin / multi-mineral formula will help ensure the presence of essential co-factors necessary for thousands of metabolic reactions.
For many years it was believed that the body only needed proteins, fats, carbohydrates and a number of minerals to stay fit and healthy, but then it was discovered that these dietary components were not enough - tiny amounts of other materials were essential to keep the body functioning. These vital ingredients were named vitamins.
Vitamins are organic compounds that help regulate fat, carbohydrate and protein metabolism in the body. They cannot be made by the body and have to be provided by the food we eat - fortunately we only need tiny amounts of these vitamins.
Vitamins are not an energy source, but they play a vital role in releasing the energy stored in the other foods we eat. In addition, our enzyme, nervous, hormonal and immune systems are dependent on vitamins for regulation and control. Because of this vitamins are essential for good health, wellbeing and growth.
Vitamins are divided into two types: water-soluble and fat-soluble.
- Water-soluble: These vitamins cannot be stored in the body and need to be replaced
• regularly through our diet.
- Fat-soluble: These vitamins are stored in the body and include vitamins A, D, E and K.
• Although these vitamins can be stored, they should still be part of a healthy diet
Minerals are inorganic elements that have many roles in the body's functioning. Apart from their more well-known roles in the formation of strong bones and teeth, they also help to control the nervous system, fluid balance in tissues, muscle contractions, some hormonal functions and enzyme secretion.
Minerals are as essential as vitamins and, just like most vitamins, they cannot be made in the body. All our bodies' mineral needs have to be supplied from our diets.
