Broad Spectrum Antioxidant Protection

Quercetin – Part of a group of plant pigments called flavonoids, quercetin is a powerful antioxidant. This means that it scavenges damaging particles within the body (known as free radicals) that can cause damage to DNA, cell membranes and even cause cell death. Antioxidants, such as quercetin, neutralize free radicals and can possibly reduce or prevent damage. They have also been known to protect LDL (bad) cholesterol from damage, which many believe is a main contributor of heart disease.

Caro-xan (beta-carotene and Betatene) – Beta-carotene is a type of plant pigment that gives yellow and orange fruits their rich color. You’ll find an abundance of beta-carotene in carrots, sweet potatoes and other colorful vegetables. Much like quercetin, beta-carotene acts as an antioxidant within the body. Betatene is a form of vitamin A that provides the body with a mix of 6 natural carotenoids.

Vitamin E – Multigenics provides a natural source of vitamin E in a 1:1 ratio of alpha to gamma tocopherols to more closely match the tocopherol profile found in vitamin E-rich plants.

Calcium and Magnesium

This formulation provides a 2:1 ratio of calcium to magnesium to provide an optimal balance for overall bone health.

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, so it is vital to our overall health. You’ll find calcium naturally in some foods, and others are fortified with the mineral. It is also available as a dietary supplement on its own or in combination with other vitamins and minerals, such as in this Multigenics supplement. Calcium is essential for vascular contraction and vasodilation, nerve transmission, hormonal secretion, muscle function and intracellular signaling.

Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. It is essential to good overall health and is especially vital to bone health: about half of the total magnesium in the body can be found in the bone. The remaining half is distributed amongst cells, body tissues and organs. There is also a miniscule, but important, amount of magnesium in the blood.

Multigenics includes mineral amino acid chelates that are designed to aid in mineral absorption, so you get the most out of the essential minerals, such as calcium and magnesium, that are included in this formula. In addition to the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants listed above, Multigenics also delivers nutrients to support healthy adrenal and liver function.
