| Boron |
 |
Ensures proper nutrient and hormone utilization
*Boron improves calcium, phosphorous, and magnesium metabolism,
and reduces the loss of these minerals through the urine. Boron plays
a role in the synthesizing of estrogen, vitamin D, and other steroidal
hormones and protects these hormones from rapid breakdown. In
addition, boron strengthens the connective structure in bone matrix.
Boron nutritionally promotes the proper utilization of many vitamins,
minerals, and hormones which are crucial to the optimal functioning
of the human body.

*Risk factors for osteoporosis include sex, race, age and inadequate
calcium intake. Populations at highest risk for osteoporosis include
Caucasian, Asian, and postmenopausal women, and elderly women
and men. Adequate calcium intake throughout life is linked to a
reduced risk of osteoporosis, as calcium helps to optimize peak
bone mass during adolescence and early adulthood in conjunction
with exercise and healthy diet. Calcium intake greater than 2,000
mg per day has no further known benefit to bone health. |

Unique chromium polynicotinate
*Chromium is important for metabolism and enzyme activation. One
study showed that when combined with modest diet and exercise,
ChromeMate supports lean body composition in overweight women.
A similar study at Georgetown University also recently demonstrated
that ChromeMate may support lean muscle mass in overweight
women. The potential for ChromeMate to promote Glucose Tolerance
Factor (GTF) activity accounts for its role in maintaining healthy
glucose metabolism and supporting body composition.
ChromeMate provides all the benefits of chromium and enhances this
with the additional benefits of nicotinic acid. This product provides an
advanced replacement for Pure Encapsulations Chromium
(niaCHROM).

Supports lipid and glucose metabolism
*Chromium is important for fat metabolism, enzyme activation, and
glucose support. Chromium inhibits the synthesis of new fat from
carbohydrates, thus freeing the mitochondria to burn already stored
fat. In addition, chromium increases the effectiveness of insulin and
optimizes glucose metabolism.
Chromium picolinate is a highly utilizable form of chromium,
promoting optimal regulation of cholesterol, as well as glucose and fat
metabolism.

involved in protein metabolism, the production of RNA, and the
synthesis of phospholipids used in the formation of myelin sheaths.
Copper is an essential trace mineral which supports a number
of crucial physiological processes.

secretion; renal function; tissue synthesis; and carbohydrate
metabolism. Potassium is the major cation of intracellular fluid and is
essential for maintenance of acid-alkaline balance, isotonicity, and
electrodynamic characteristics of the cell. In addition, it works with
sodium to regulate water balance, heart rhythm, and normal nerve and
muscle function.
Potassium is an essential mineral which offers a wide range of
nutritional support to ensure proper physiological functioning of diverse
organ systems.

| Strontium (citrate) |
 |
Trace mineral for bone health
*Strontium is one of many trace
minerals essential for bone health. It is a divalent cation and is transported
through the body using many of the same transport molecules and receptors as
calcium. Recent research has highlighted strontium's potential to support bone
strength and health. Strontium supports healthy osteoblast differentiation and
helps to keep osteoclast activity in balance. Additionally, strontium
supplementation supports healthy collagen formation by osteoblasts, enhancing
bone tensile strength. In a multi-national, prospective two-year
placebo-controlled trial with 353 women, strontium supplementation maintained
healthy vertebrae integrity as well as healthy bone mineralization. A three-year
placebo-controlled, double blind study with 1,649 postmenopausal women,
indicated that a strontium salt supported healthy vertebrae composition and was
well tolerated. In a preliminary analysis of a three-year placebo- controlled,
double blind study of 5,091 postmenopausal women, strontium supplementation
promoted healthy hip bones. Since strontium is absorbed using calcium transport
mechanisms, strontium supplements should not be taken at the same time as
calcium supplements or calcium containing foods. While supplementing with
strontium, adequate calcium intake should be maintained. Strontium
supplementation may be contraindicated for individuals with impaired renal
function.
Strontium promotes healthy
osteoblast activity while maintaining healthy osteoclast activity to support
healthy bones.

Highly absorbable immune support
*Zinc plays an important role in supporting the bodyOs defense
system, and is related to the normal absorption and actions of the
B vitamins. It is a constituent of over two dozen enzymes involved in
digestion and metabolism, including carbonic anhydrase which is
vital to tissue respiration. Zinc is essential for the normal storage and
metabolism of carbohydrates. Zinc plays a fundamental role in
collagen formation and healthy tissue development. This mineral is
also essential for healthy fetal and reproductive development, and it
contributes to healthy prostatic function.
Zinc picolinate is a highly absorbable form of this mineral which is
essential to a wide range of physiological functions, including support
of the bodyOs defense system.
