Bio-Magnesium provides a bio-available source of magnesium.

Bio-Magnesium is useful for all common magnesium requirements during periods of exercise, energy production and muscle reflexes.

Manganese Ascorbate, like most mineral ascorbates has a high degree of solubility and absorption.

Calcidophilus provides a source of bio-available, milk-free calcium. During the growing process of the Lactobacillus acidophilus, calcium carbonate is fed to the friendly bacteria which incorporates the calcium into its own structure. When the L. acidophilus has digested sufficient calcium it is freeze-dried and encapsulated, then vacuum packed into glass bottles. Generally, ordinary calcium carbonate is poorly absorbed. When ingested the calcium-rich L. acidophilus attach to the intestinal wall and release calcium.

Calcium Plus is a natural vanilla flavoured calcium supplement that is sweetened with freeze-dried honey and has added magnesium, vitamin A, vitamin D and vitamin K to provide extra nutritional benefit. Calcium Plus is provided in a palatable powder that can be mixed into milk, yoghurt, fruit juice or simply taken in water. Calcium Plus is ideal for growing children and for individuals that need extra calcium as a result of following a milk or dairy free diet. Calcium Plus is suited for individuals that require extra calcium but have difficulty swallowing large tablets or capsules. Calcium Plus can be used by women who are pre- and postmenopausal to help maintain adequate calcium levels in their diet.

Ethanolamine Phosphate ester (EAP2) is also referred to as vitamin M1. German physician Dr Hans Neiper considers EAP as an important transporter of minerals in the body. Complexing calcium to EAP2 creates an organic calcium compound that may be suited to people who are calcium malabsorbers. Absorption of calcium supplements can differ enormously from one individual to another.

Inorganic iron is frequently associated with stomach upsets. However, by utilising organic molecules such as ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and malic acid to improve absorption, people who are generally sensitive to iron supplementation tolerate iron without upset. It has been known for many years that malic acid found naturally in apples and vitamin C found in oranges acts as a biologically active mineral transporter for molecular iron by changing ferric iron III to ferric iron II.

Ethanolamine Phosphate ester (EAP2) is also referred to as vitamin M1. German physician Dr Hans Neiper considers EAP as an important transporter of minerals in the body. Inorganic iron is frequently associated with stomach upsets, however complexing iron to EAP2 creates an organic iron compound that is well tolerated by people who are generally sensitive to iron supplementation.

Mag 2:1 Cal contains a combination of the minerals magnesium and calcium in a ratio of two magnesium to one calcium. These minerals are bonded to succinic acid to form bioavailable magnesium and calcium succinate. Succinic acid is an organic acid involved in Kreb's Cycle and forms a mild chelate with minerals in the gastrointestinal tract such as magnesium and calcium.

Ethanolamine Phosphate ester (EAP2) is also referred to as vitamin M1. German physician Dr Hans Neiper considers EAP as an important transporter of minerals in the body. Complexing magnesium to EAP2 creates an organic magnesium compound and may be particularly suited to people who are sensitive to magnesium supplementation.

BioCare has produced this formulation as absorption of magnesium supplements may differ enormously from one individual to another.

Magnesium is an important factor in many biochemical processes within the body. Many vital enzymes require magnesium for their optimal activity and formation.

Malic acid is an organic acid that occurs naturally in fruits and some vegetables. It is also present in most fruit juices and is responsible for the acidic nature of apple juice. Malic acid is an integral component in the Kreb's Cycle (the energy cycle) in the body. Malic acid is a mild chelator and an excellent mineral transporter.

Taurine is one of the sulphur rich group of amino acids. It is the second most prevalent amino acid in human breast milk but is only provided in small amounts in cow's milk. Women have a requirement for taurine as the female hormone oestrodiol is found to inhibit the synthesis of taurine in the liver.

Chromium polynicotinate (niacin-bound chromium) is recommended by the U.S. Government National Research Council as a superior form of chromium for bioavailability and biological activity. The U.S recommended daily amount (RDA) for chromium has been established at 40-200µg per day. BioCare was the first company to introduce chromium polynicotinate into the United Kingdom twelve years ago when we recognised the advantages of this bioavailable, yeast free form of chromium.

Chromium polynicotinate is effectively bound to niacin (vitamin B3) and is the closest dietary source of GTF chromium.

Manganese Ascorbate

(providing 1mg elemental manganese)

Non-active Ingredients:

Purified Water

Manganese, like most minerals is efficiently chelated to ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and has a high absorption rate meaning that lower levels of supplementation may be effective.

Molybdenum, like most minerals is efficiently chelated to ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and has a high absorption rate meaning that lower levels of supplementation may be effective. Liquid molybdenum ascorbate is free from additives and is formulated with the intolerant individual in mind.

Nutrisorb^® Liquid Trace Minerals are formulated with the intolerant individual in mind.  Many refined foods are deficient in trace minerals and crops are often grown in soil that is deficient in these essential trace minerals.

Some studies have shown that zinc methionine exhibits a superior absorption rate when compared with many other forms of zinc. Optizinc^® has demonstrated potent antioxidant activity which is almost equal to that of vitamin E.

L-Selenomethionine is selenium chelated to the amino acid L-methionine. L-Selenomethionine is the form of selenium most frequently found in nature.

Magnesium is an important factor in essential biochemical processes within the body. Many vital enzymes require magnesium for their optimal activity. Phosphatidyl Serine Precursors provides the raw materials for the body to synthesis phosphatidyl serine which is an active precursor in the production of phosphatidyl choline.

Potassium Citrate provides potassium ions naturally bonded to citric acid.

Citric acid is an organic acid widely found in fruits, which effectively bonds with many minerals and trace nutrients acting as an efficient transport mechanism in the diet.

Non-active Ingredients:

None

Potassium Ascorbate and Magnesium Ascorbate provide readily available sources of vitamin C and potassium and magnesium. Potassium ascorbate occurs naturally in fruits and is also found in human breast milk. Magnesium ascorbate is a buffered, low-acidity form of vitamin C which is more gentle on the stomach compared to the acidic form ascorbic acid. Vitamin C, potassium and magnesium are also required for healthy immune function.

Some nutritionists suggest that these two forms of selenium; one a salt and the other an amino acid chelate, should be taken together for maximum effect. Sodium selenite is the most common form of selenium used in research. It has been reported to be more effective for increasing levels of the antioxidant, glutathione peroxidase.

Zinc ascorbate, like most mineral ascorbates, has a high absorption rate so that smaller amounts provide effective supplementation. Zinc occurs naturally in human breast milk and fruits and vegetables.

Mineral citrates are formed by bonding mineral ions to citric acid. Zinc citrate occurs naturally in human breast milk. Citric acid is an organic acid widely found in fruits which effectively bonds to many minerals and trace nutrients acting as an efficient mineral transporter in the diet.

Zinc is the second most abundant trace mineral in the body, being present in all tissues. (Iron is the most abundant).

Zinc has a variety of functions. It is related to the normal absorption and action of vitamins, especially the B complex. It is a constituent of more than 2000 enzymes involved in digestion and metabolism
