MULTIVITAMIN AND MINERAL FORMULAE
The body requires a wide variety of food substances - called nutrients - which
are the building materials for new and repaired tissue. Each nutrient has
specific functions. However, nutrients must work together to help your body
perform its necessary tasks.
Among the nutrients that work together are vitamins and minerals which are
components of your body's enzyme system, the catalysts necessary for the
maintenance of life. To help ensure maximum nutrient intake, it is important to
supplement your daily diet with a multivitamin/multimineral formula as many
vitamins cannot be manufactured by the body and, of course, minerals cannot be
manufactured by the body at all.
