Solgar Omnium (Multiphytonutrient Complex) overview

OMNIUM Tomorrow's Nutrients Today
Careful study and ongoing scientific research has led Solgar to develop an innovative formula that helps to supply and replenish crucially important nutrients.

Further information about Solgar Omnium (Multiphytonutrient Complex)

This advanced multi-nutrient formula is a superbly balanced, single source of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and phytonutrients that performs two important functions:

Provides the nutrients necessary to help convert food into energy needed for daily activities * Helps protect the body to keep it strong and healthy throughout life

Careful Research Provides the Key

Solgar has earned an outstanding reputation for its commitment to quality, innovation, integrity and advanced research. OMNIUM is no exception. The development of OMNIUM required intensive research into the following areas:

* Balanced Nutrient Requirements: Our researchers reviewed current clinical studies to determine a favorable and meaningful dosage for efficient absorption and utilization of each of the essential nutrients in the OMNIUM formula. These dosages were based upon the scientific data addressing both minimal and therapeutic needs.

* New Discoveries: In addition, the researchers reviewed many studies investigating the functions of various nutrients and their abilities to maintain health, prevent illness and combat disease.

* Efficient Bioavailable Forms: After selecting specific nutrients for the OMNIUM formula, our researchers ascertained which forms of these nutrients are efficiently absorbed and utilized. In some cases, OMNIUM even provides multiple forms to meet individual biochemical needs.

OMNIUM

Going Far Beyond Ordinary Multivitamins

This thoroughly researched formula represents a major step beyond simple multivitamins. The 47 ingredients that go into OMNIUM offer a more complete mineral blend; a wide array of nutritionally important carotenoids; advanced phytonutrients including polyphenols; and sophisticated antioxidants.

Highlights of the Formula

VITAMINS

Natural Beta Carotene/Carotenoid Mix

Studies have shown that several carotenoids other than beta carotene are potent antioxidants that provide profound health benefits. Because of this, the scientific community has now recognized the importance of natural mixed carotenoids including beta carotene. In keeping with this view, OMNIUM provides a natural blend of the nutritionally valuable carotenoids including alpha and beta carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin and cryptoxanthin.

Coenzyme B Vitamins

More biologically active than ordinary B vitamins, ready-to-use coenzyme forms do not need metabolic conversion-an activity some individuals do inefficiently-and thus, help the body save time and energy.

Vitamin C Complex

A wide spectrum, multi-mineral ascorbate complex provides natural metabolites of aldonic acid that increase the absorption and availability of vitamin C and other nutrients.

MINERALS

OMNIUM contains a wide array of fully reacted, chelated minerals (a type of mineral the body can more easily absorb and utilize) as well as other appropriate mineral forms. The OMNIUM formula even includes trace elements such as, nickel and vanadium, not found in typical multiple formulas.

PHYTONUTRIENTS/ADVANCED ANTIOXIDANTS

Alpha Lipoic Acid
The scientific community has recently recognized alpha lipoic acid for its involvement in metabolism, energy production and the preservation of nerve cell growth and for its protective role in the body as a powerful antioxidant and detoxifying agent.

Coenzyme Q-10
A powerful antioxidant that positively influences the cardiovascular system.

Polyphenol/Proanthocyanidin Complex
This wide array of polyphenol flavonoids, including pine bark, grape seed, red wine and green tea extracts, has a potent antioxidant, free-radical scavenging effect greater than that of vitamins E and C.

Quercetin
A bioflavonoid known for its strong anti-inflammatory and capillary strengthening activity. It helps inhibit the production of histamines and reduce the production of inflammatory substances called leukotrienes.

Soy Isoflavone Extract
The well known and studied isoflavones include, daidzein and genestein, which act as estrogen receptor blocking agents and powerful antioxidants. They also have anti-angiogenesis activity and cardiovascular health benefits.

Tocotrienol
As a member of the vitamin E family, tocotrienols have been shown in studies to elicit more powerful antioxidant and cholesterol-lowering properties than their popular counterpart, tocopherols. Sugar, Salt and Starch Free * Suitable for Vegetarians

Multiples
The human body requires a wide variety of food substances, termed "nutrients," which are the building materials for new and repaired tissues. Each nutrient has specific functions. Although in many instances, several must work together to help the body perform the necessary tasks.

Among the nutrients that work together are vitamins and minerals which are constituents of the body's enzyme systems, the catalysts necessary for the maintenance of life.

To assure maximum nutrient intake, it is important that you supplement your daily diet with a multivitamin/multimineral formula.

CATEGORY HIGHLIGHTS

Solgar offers:

* Natural Beta Carotene/Carotenoid Mix since current research supports that a natural mixture of carotenoids, like those found in fruits and vegetables, is associated with a reduced risk of certain diseases, we were the first to employ a natural mix of carotenoids in all our beta carotene, multivitamin/mineral, antioxidant and specialty formulas as opposed to the common practice of using only synthetic beta carotene. Our natural beta carotene/carotenoid mixture contains a blend of nutritionally valuable carotenoids not found in synthetic beta carotene such as: alpha carotene, cryptoxanthin, lutein and zeaxanthin.

* multiples in a variety of dosage forms (tablets, capsules, vegicaps? and powder) and in varying potencies

* a convenient one-a-day to more comprehensive 2-3 per day multiple formulas

* multiples to address the needs of pregnant women, children and adults
