Ultra Preventive X
Essential nutrition for optimal health
in a vegetable/fruit food base
Recognized as the Top Multi-Vitamin Formula
Ultra
Preventive® X, provided by Douglas Laboratories®,
is a comprehensive, highly concentrated vitamin-mineral-trace
element daily supplement containing more than 50 nutritional
ingredients, all in a special herbal green food base. Its formula is
carefully balanced to provide the essential nutrients for optimal
health.
Ultra Preventive® X is also a potent
antioxidant formula that includes natural beta-carotene, vitamin C,
vitamin E, selenium, L-cysteine/N-acetyl-L-cysteine, lutein,
lycopene, red wine proanthocyanidins and select extracts and powders
from over 25 fruits, vegetables and herbs.
FUNCTIONS
Studies show that a high percentage of adults in North America and
other developed areas eat less than the minimum daily allowance of
10 or more essential nutrients. Adequate amounts and proper balance
of these nutrients are needed not only for maintaining good health,
but also for the dietary management of the body’s structure as well
as the optimum functioning of its various systems, including the
immune and gastrointestinal systems.
Ultra Preventive® X has been
carefully developed to contain the right proportions of vitamins,
minerals, trace elements, and other nutrients without danger of
toxic build-up or other side effects. Each ingredient is selected in
consideration of its absorbability, competitive relationship with
other nutrients, allergenic potential, and long-term safety.
Recognized as the Top Multi-Vitamin Formula
Certain nutrients such as beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, and
B-complex vitamins are included in high-potency amounts because of
the vital roles they play in antioxidant protection, energy
production, the maintenance of healthy blood cells, the nervous
system, hormonal balance, and more. Minerals and trace elements are
provided in their safest and most bioavailable forms.
Ultra Preventive® X's herbal
green food base also includes important phytonutrients. Gluten-free
grasses and several varieties of microalgae supply chlorophyll,
carotenes, B-vitamins, and trace elements. Cruciferous vegetables,
broccoli and cauliflower, offer protective sulforophane compounds
known for their ability to induce protective phase 2 detoxifying
enzymes.
