To maintain optimal health, we need a variety of vitamins, minerals,
bioflavonoids, and other micronutrients. The "essential" vitamins and
minerals, as defined by government agencies and nutrition experts, are
those that are needed for metabolic function but are not manufactured
by our bodies. Thus, they must be obtained from outside sources. The
same experts have defined recommended Daily Values (DV) for those
ingredients where a clearly defined deficiency disease or symptom had
been discovered.
Because of today's hectic lifestyles and diets that are far from
balanced, it is very difficult to obtain the essential nutrients from
food alone. In addition, daily stress, environmental pollutants, and
unrefined foods are bombarding us with free radicals and have further
increased the need for supplementation.
USANA has expanded the meaning of "essential" micronutrition to
include more ingredients than just those with an established DV.
Formulated to not only prevent deficiency diseases, the USANA
Essentials provide the necessary micronutrients to maintain optimal
health and energy levels that everyone, at every age, needs every day.
The Essentials also contain trace minerals, mixed carotenoids,
bioflavanoids, and other phytochemicals and antioxidants to provide a
full arsenal of compounds to help protect against the daily exposure
to free radicals.
USANA continually reviews all the available scientific literature to
insure the micronutrients present in our Essentials formulas are
balanced to work together. While much is still not known about all the
interactions that occur with nutrients in our bodies, USANA continues
to keep abreast of the latest research to insure up-to-date
formulations. USANA takes extra steps to guarantee that only the
highest quality ingredients with dependable levels of potency pass
rigorous quality controls at every step of the manufacturing process.
To be useful, all nutrients must be of high quality and bioavailable.
In other words, they must be in a form the body can absorb and use.
Poor disintegration means poor bioavailability of the nutrients, and
many supplements on the market today do not readily disintegrate. A
recent study conducted in Canada tested the disintegration properties
of many different dietary supplements. Over half the tablet products
tested failed to disintegrate fully within 20 minutes, a stringent
standard, and about a quarter of the products failed the less-
stringent USP disintegration tests for supplements. One of the
Essentials for Adults was included in the study and passed the most
stringent test, meaning maximum bioavailability.
