INTRODUCTION
Research shows that most Americans don't get the recommended daily allowances of vitamins and minerals from their diets. ¹ And, busy lifestyles take a toll on nutrient stores of vitamins and minerals needed for optimal energy production and healthy stress management. Requirements for nutritional support of the body can be altered due to changes in nutritional availability, time commitments, stress levels and energy requirements that individuals may experience on a daily basis. ^2,3

Water soluble nutrients such as the B-vitamins, vitamin C and certain minerals are not stored in the body, and so require constant replenishing. They're required to support daily energy levels, to form neurotransmitters, hormones, and immune system substances, and to protect from the effects of stress, aging, occasional sleeplessness and oxidative stress.^†⁴

Multivitamin and mineral supplements have been clinically shown to enhance many aspects of health.^†⁵ In order to provide optimal health benefits, the supplement must provide a full range of essential vitamins and minerals, at clinically effective levels, along with other nutrients that provide targeted support to the body's organs and systems.^†⁵

Most once-daily multivitamins are formulated to provide only the recommended daily allowances (RDA), which is defined as the minimum amount of a vitamin or mineral that is required to prevent a deficiency disease (i.e., scurvy, rickets).⁶ The RDAs are not necessarily the amount required for optimum health.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Multiplex™

daily multiples offer the following ingredients for good health^†:

Ingredient	Key Functions and Benefits
Vitamin A and Beta-Carotene	Helps support healthy skin and mucous membrane integrity; supports healthy immune system responses; supports healthy bone growth and healthy reproductive processes.^† Beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A, is an antioxidant and free radical fighter.^† ^7-10 Vitamin A also supports the function of heart mitochondria (energy-producing cells) and maintains the general health and vigor of epithelial cells.^†^9,11
Vitamin C	Necessary for the proper functioning of the immune system; antioxidant and free radical fighter; assists with hormone synthesis; supports healthy skin integrity; supports healthy iron absorption.^†^12-15 Promotes many metabolic reactions, particularly protein metabolism, including formation of connective tissue.^† Vitamin C also provides protection for the inner lining of the arteries.^† ¹⁶
Vitamin D	Supports healthy metabolism of calcium and phosphorus; supports the absorption of vitamin A; supports bone mineralization.^† ^17-19 Recent research has shown that Vitamin D is important to the maintenance of electrolyte balance, volume balance and helps support the retention of healthy blood pressure levels that are already within normal limits.^†^20-22 Also boosts immune function.^†²³
Vitamin E	Helps oxygen circulation; supports healthy nerve transmissions; supports healthy leg nerves and muscles; helps boost energy levels.^†^24-26 Vitamin E also inhibits the oxidation of low density lipids by inactivating free radicals.^†²⁵ It supports fatty acids and healthy development of cell structures.^†³⁵ Supports healthy platelet activity.^†^25,27
Thiamin (Vitamin B1)	Essential for carbohydrate metabolism; important for immune system functioning; affects mood and cognitive function.^†^28,29 Essential for synthesis of acetycholine.^†³⁰
Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)	Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is crucial in the production of body energy.^† Supports healthy glutathione reductase activity, which helps maintain glutathione, a major protector against free radical damage.^† Vitamin B2 itself also has antioxidant qualities.^† ^31-33
Niacin	Supports healthy cholesterol production and assists in triglyceride breakdown to retain healthy cholesterol levels that are already within normal limits. ^†^34-38 Increases good cholesterol levels, particularly HDL-2 (the best cholesterol).^† ³⁹ Niacin supports the retention of healthy blood pressure that is already within normal limits.^† ⁴⁰
Vitamin B6	A homocysteine lowering agent that also supports healthy circulation.^†^41,42 Essential coenzyme for normal amino acid metabolism; assists in production of circulating antibodies.^†⁴³
Folic Acid	Folic acid's main function is support of healthy energy production.^† It supports healthy immune system and healthy nervous system function.^† Recent research shows folic acid can reduce the amount of the amino acid homocysteine in the blood.^†^44-47
Vitamin B12	This essential nutrient supports healthy human energy production.^† Vitamin B12 helps support metabolism of carbohydrates and fats.^† It supports healthy cell formation and cellular longevity.^†^47-49
Biotin	Essential coenzyme required by the mitochondria for cellular production of energy.^†⁵⁰ Required for the conversion of pyruvic acid to oxaloacetic acid and the synthesis of fatty acids and purines; supports healthy hair and skin.^†^50-52
Pantothenic Acid	In clinical studies, when combined with other heart healthy nutrients, pantothenic acid supported the muscle strength of the heart.^†⁵³ Essential for transfer of pyruvic acid into Krebs cycle, conversion of lipids and amino acids into glucose, and synthesis of cholesterol and steroid hormones.^†⁵⁴
Calcium	Necessary for bone and joint health; allows proper interaction of myosin and actin, proteins in the muscles, to support proper contraction.^†^55-58
Magnesium	Magnesium regulates nerve muscle firing.^†^59-62 Required for normal functioning of muscle and nervous tissue; participates in bone formation; constituent of many coenzymes.^†^60,61 Supports a healthy immune system and enzymes involved in energy production.^†^59-62
