Benefits of Enhanced Multi Vitamin
Every multivitamin product has a profile of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. The difference-maker for athletes is the quantity and proportionate breakdown of each. Since athletes have distinctive nutritional needs, they require different proportions and larger quantities of vitamins and minerals than the average Joe.
Why take Multi Vitamin?
Data consistently shows that when it comes to a multivitamin it’s most important for an athlete to focus on zinc, the B vitamins, vitamin D, C and E, along with beta-carotene, and selenium. This is where Enhanced Multi+ shines, per serving:
100% RDA of Vitamin A (as beta-carotene)
220% RDA of Vitamin C
130% RDA of vitamin E
Over 100% RDA of all the B Vitamins
100% RDA of Zinc
360% RDA of selenium
Those proportions are absolutely on point for what an athlete needs to meet the high demands of their body, both to stimulate performance and enhance recovery after a workout, game, or competition.
Of course, the vitamin and mineral profile doesn’t stop there. Enhanced Multi+ also contains an adaptogen blend of cordyceps, ashwagandha, and He Shou Wu (Fo-Ti), and the essential trace minerals inositol and boron.
Enhanced Multi Vitamin Ingredients
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is one of the most widely studied nutrients in relation to immune function. Vitamin A is involved in the development of the immune system and plays regulatory roles in cellular immune responses and humoral immune processes.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C is involved in many parts of the immune system. First, vitamin C helps encourage the production of white blood cells known as lymphocytes and phagocytes, which help protect the body against infection. Second, vitamin C helps cells function more effectively by protecting them from free radicals. Third, vitamin C is an essential part of the skin’s defense system. It’s actively transported to the skin, where it acts as an antioxidant and helps strengthen the skin’s barriers.
Studies show that taking vitamin C shortens wound healing time.
Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid (AA), is involved in all phases of wound healing. In the inflammatory phase it is required for neutrophil apoptosis and clearance. During the proliferative phase, AA contributes towards synthesis, maturation, secretion and degradation of collagen.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D reduces your risk of infectious disease by strengthening your innate immune system. Vitamin D turns on key peptides in your immune system that trigger a strong antimicrobial response, allowing you to quickly and effectively fight off invaders before they can develop into a full-blown infection.
A recent study found that 57% of US adults had insufficient vitamin D. The prevalence of vitamin D deficiency is concerning because it plays an important role in many areas of our health. In addition to playing a hugely important role in the immune system, it contributes to bone strength, heart health, and cancer prevention.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is a nutrient powerhouse. It helps make DNA, nerves and blood cells, and is crucial for a healthy brain and immune system. Vitamin B12 plays an important role in white blood cell production, which are essential for proper immune system functioning.
Iodine
Iodine is an essential mineral that is needed for the thyroid to work properly. Thyroid hormones play an important role in a wide range of bodily functions, including metabolism, bone health, and immune response. Iodine helps boost the overall immunity levels in the body because it acts as a scavenger of free radicals.
Zinc
Zinc is a mineral that’s important to the body in many ways. Zinc keeps the immune system strong, helps heal wounds, and supports normal growth. Zinc supplements stimulate immune cells and reduce oxidative stress.
Clinical trials have demonstrated that daily zinc supplementation reduces the length of the common cold by 33%.
Selenium
Selenium plays an important role in the health of your immune system. As an antioxidant, it helps lower oxidative stress in your body, which reduces inflammation and enhances immunity.
Clinical studies have demonstrated an enhancement of both cell-mediated and humoral immune responses by supplementing with selenium.
Magnesium
Magnesium helps maintain normal muscle function, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps the bones strong. Research shows that increasing magnesium intake can help reduce inflammation, preventing long term health problems and chronic diseases.
Cordyceps Mushroom Extract
Cordyceps increase the body’s production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is essential for delivering energy to the muscles. In a study for the Chinese Journal of Integrative Medicine, participants received either a daily cordyceps supplement or a placebo pill for six weeks. By the end of the study, VO2 max had increased by 7% in participants who had taken the cordyceps supplement, while participants given the placebo pill showed no change.
Ashwagandha
Ashwagandha supplementation is associated with significant increases in muscle mass and strength. A study for the journal of International Society of Sports Nutrition reported that compared to the placebo subjects, the group given ashwagandha had significantly greater muscle strength, significantly greater testosterone levels, and significantly lower body fat percentage.
He Shou Wu (Fo-Ti)
He Shou Wu has been shown to have anti-inflammatory, antidiabetic, antibacterial, and antitumor effects. The biological compounds found in He Shou Wu may also positively affect blood cholesterol levels and improve conditions caused by an age-related decline of the nervous system, such as Alzheimer’s.
Inositol
Inositol plays a role in insulin signaling and may improve the body’s sensitivity to insulin. A six-month study found that daily inositol supplementation improved insulin sensitivity, blood pressure and cholesterol levels, comparted to a placebo.
Boron
Boron is an essential nutrient for healthy cartilage and joints. Boron works with other nutrients like calcium, magnesium, and vitamin D to stimulate bone mineralization. In short, it makes bones stronger. Plus, it’s an effective arthritis treatment option due to the increased calcium integration.
