Fitness Vitamins - Get The Extra Performance Edge

If you are undertaking any fitness program you need to be taking a vitamin and mineral supplement. In particular you need to be taking a supplement that delivers nutrients in the same form found in nature and one that mops up free radicals that are produced by working out. If you don’t want to waste your money you need to be taking a supplement that is not composed of isolated chemicals such as ascorbic acid as vitamin C.

Vitamin C exists nowhere in nature as ascorbic acid.

Stargate Nutrition Vitamins are such fitness vitamins found in a food structure with 100% natural ingredients. You can also get 12 months supply for the price of ten.

You could also try out their new fitness vitamins sports drink Glycophos.

Vitamin and mineral levels have dramatically reduced since the early part of the last century. Scientific studies show that organic foods especially vegetables have significantly higher proportions of nutrients in them than mass produced one. The reason is not so complicated to understand. Due to mass farming the top soil in such farming is depleted and the land is not given time to lie fallow. The topsoil is very rich in minerals which the plants absorb and phosphorylate.

All disease is a type or nutrient deficiency disease. Most of which can be linked specifically to mineral deficiency. Asthma to magnesium, cancer to selenium and zinc to immunity. So if you want to safe guard your health then you need to be taking a multivitamin supplement on a daily basis but especially if you diet is poor and also if you are not eating organically produced food.

One in there people are now taking some for of supplement and the UK vitamin consumer market alone is worth over 400 million sterling. However, most of what is on offer is islolated synthetic chemical. This chemical is manufactured by the tonne and is broken up into packaged under different brands as is the case with ascorbic acid which is sold as Vitamin C. No place high or low in nature does ascorbic acid exist as vitamin C. This is the same for all the other nutrients that are being sold.

This the reason why you need to be supplementing you diet with nutrients that are in the same form that are found in nature. StarGate Nutrition Vitamins are such nutrients and come in a food structure.

Did you know that most vitamins sold on the market are isolated synthetic chemicals? Did you know that vitamin C exists nowhere in nature as ascorbic acid? If you want to get your hands on real vitamin and mineral nutrients - read on.

IT'S TIME TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX

  • Vitamin C is not Ascorbic Acid
  • Vitamin E is not Alpha Tocopherol
  • Vitamin A is not Retinoic Acid

What you believe are vitamins, are in fact synthetic chemicals, this is one of the reasons, why you should be enhancing your health through the consumption of a multivitamin and mineral in a food matrix.

Mutivitamins

Most of us need to be taking a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement to ensure your health is at an optimum level. Many of the essential nutrients our bodies need cannot be made internally and can no longer be found in most of the foods we are eating. In particular our soils are quite depleted of minerals which can be seen in scientific studies carried out over decades. The intake of vitamins and minerals varies from person to person, but there are some groups who are more nutrient-lacking than others. New scientific studies are seeing that we even have a genetic code that tells what nutrients we need more of as individuals.

Disease Linked To Vitamin Deficiency

All disease on some level is nutrient deficiency disease. When you are low in nutrients disease will arise. You will have immune problems if you are low in zinc, diabetes if low in chromium and cancer if selenium is lacking. These are just a few examples. Therefore taking vitamin and mineral supplements can safeguard your health. However they have to be real ones and not chemicals.

The fastest and quickest way to ensure your health is protected is by taking a daily multi-vitamin and mineral supplement. Supplementing makes up for the nutrients you are losing by skipping meals and depending on convenience foods. Taking them in one pill is most efficient especially if you are in good health generally. One in three people are now regularly taking nutrient supplements. They need to know not to be taking chemicals so pass this info on.

The best types of multi-vitamin and mineral supplements to use are products made to a “food state” standard. With these products you can be guaranteed that your body will absorb them. If you are taking any other multi-supplement make sure it has the minerals selenium and chromium in its formula.

Isolated Synthetic Chemicals

Many of the supplements available are in fact synthetic chemicals masquerading as vitamins, hyped by marketing people to be something they are truly not. Many companies do not supply vitamins in a form that the body recognizes. They are supplying the active ingredients of a vitamin - not the vitamin itself. For example, what claims to be vitamin C in many supplements is actually ascorbic acid, the active component of vitamin C. But the body only recognises the vitamin not the active compound.

These companies either break the food down, isolate the active chemical from the vitamin complex and mass produce it, or grind up rock and tablet the powder for human consumption. These isolates no longer have what the body needs to deliver the benefits. Without these co-factors, taking them is like sending a letter without an address. We need minerals that have been phosphorylated by plants into a food structure.

Demand for extra nutrients can be greater if you fall into any of the groups below. Many diseases can be traced to nutrient deficiency. In particular, type two diabetes has been linked to chromium deficiency. If we are not eating organic food which is high in minerals, we might be deficient and compromising our health.

StarGate Nutrition Vitamin

StarGate Nutrition nutrient material has been designed to be 16 times more effective, 5 times more utilised and 6 times more retained than the vast majority (99%) of nutrient material on the nutrition market. They have studied our material through independent laboratories using a number of biological studies to see its effectiveness over a number of development years. Their technology is based and confirmed by over 77 scientific papers and by a number of medical and nutrition Professors and prestigious institutions.They use 100% natural and totally allergen free.

Regular dieters

People who regularly diet generally have a healthy intake of vitamin C, beta-carotene, folates, magnesium and potassium. They are, however, very commonly lacking in zinc, riboflavin, iodine and calcium. They should incorporate fresh juice from organic vegetables into their diet. These will also help take any toxins out of the body and deliver nutrients quickly.

Vegetarians and Vegans

Vegetarian diets contain more micronutrients than non-vegetarian diet. But vegetarians have difficulty with their intake of vitamin B12 as that is mostly derived from animal foods. Most female vegetarians are at increased risk of anemia as iron from meat is more easily absorbed than iron from plant sources. Frozen peas and green vegetables will increase your iron levels, which is why many people crave these foods at such a time.

Anyway make sure you are taking vitamins and minerals in the form nature intended. This will safeguard your health and enhance your fitness prgram.
