Combination of antioxidants and multivitamins for optimal health Helps the body to metabolize carbohydrates, fats and proteins and supports healthy glucose metabolism Helps in the development and maintenance of bones, cartilage, teeth, gums and night vision Helps to maintain eyesight, skin health, membranes, immune system and proper muscle function Helps to prevent deficiencies of vitamins C, E, B6, B12, pantothenic acid, biotin, thiamine, riboflavin, manganese, chromium and selenium Maxum Multi Vite is a multivitamin formula that also provides five sources of antioxidants for the maintenance of good health. Selenium is required for the production of selenoproteins, including glutathione peroxidases and selenoprotein P, which are involved in the antioxidant defense system.1 Vitamin C is the most important aqueous antioxidant in plasma, interstitial fluid, and the soluble compartment of cells.2 As the first line of defense in these areas, vitamin C prevents free radical damage to DNA and helps recycle vitamin E to protect against oxidative damage in lipid membranes.2 Rutin and green tea extracts further provide antioxidants to maintain good health.3,4 B vitamins help mediate hundreds of enzymatic reactions, including macronutrient metabolism.2 Niacin, thiamine, and biotin help to provide substrates for energy production in the Krebs cycle, while folate and vitamins B6 and B12 help to convert homocysteine to methionine for protein production.2 Chromium promotes healthy glucose metabolism by helping to regulate glucose uptake into cells and promoting its storage as glycogen.5,6 Beta-carotene is a provitamin A carotenoid pigment naturally found in plants.7 Since it can be converted to vitamin A in the body, it is an important source of vitamin A to help maintain eyesight, skin, membranes, and immune function.7 NPN 80027402 03145 1.
