Synergy Energy Multi-Vitamin Version 3 is a foundational, broad spectrum multi-vitamin and potent antioxidant formula that is designed to protect your general health. In addition, it may help you to have more energy and stamina for your daily life. How is this possible? Mitochondria are small compartments within our cells that generate about 95% of our cellular energy. One of the critical components of aging is that mitochondria also produce high levels of free radicals that can damage the mitochondria. Unfortunately, mitochondria function decreases as we get older.
How can Synergy Energy help the mitochondria? Scientific studies have shown that the combination of three powerful antioxidants -- coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), alpha lipoic acid, and aceytl L-carnitine -- can increase mitochondrial energy production while protecting from free radical damage. Furthermore, these three antioxidants have each been shown to protect the heart and the brain. Effective dosages of CoQ10 100 mg, alpha lipoic acid 300 mg, and aceytl L-carnitine 500mg help Synergy Energy act as an anti-aging formula for improving mitochondrial energy production.
Green tea is one of the foods with the highest antioxidant activity. Epidemiological studies have shown that drinking many cups of green tea is associated with a healthy heart and protection from abnormal cell growth. The antioxidant activity of Synergy Energy's Green Tea Extract 500 mg, particularly the potent epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) 225 mg, is equivalent to drinking approximately five cups of green tea.
Why should you take a large variety of antioxidants? Antioxidants neutralize free radicals and then these antioxidants become oxidized and inactive (and sometimes pro-oxidants). Other antioxidants (especially CoQ10 and alpha lipoic acid) can recycle the inactive antioxidants back to an active state. Another reason is that some antioxidants, such as CoQ10 + alpha lipoic acid + aceytl L-carnitine; vitamin E + selenium; vitamin C + quercetin; and lutein + lycopene are synergistic -- meaning that they act more effectively when combined together.
Synergy Energy contains four essential ingredients to strengthen bones -- vitamin D-3 1,000 IU, vitamin K 300mcg, boron 3 mg and magnesium. For maximum bone protection, you can also add calcium. Plus, it has effective dosages of:
- the B-complex vitamins (important for energy and lowering homocysteine, which may protect the heart and brain) - natural vitamin E 200 IU - vitamin C 300 mg (calcium ascorbate) - quercetin 100 mg ( the major bioflavonoid in our diet; predominantly found in tea, apples and onions) - turmeric extract (Curcumin C3 Complex®) 100 mg (for Protecting the brain and for portecting abnormal cell growth) - grape seed extract (ActiVin®) 50 mg ( a powerful antioxidant) - lutein 6 mg and zeaxanthin (important for eye protection) - zinc 30 mg (in the potent form of L-OptiZinc®; important for vision, immune function and the prostate) - magnesium 200 mg (important for energy production, the heart and the bones)
Physical exercise generates free radicals so people who are active in sports need more antioxidant protection. Synergy Energy has a powerful antioxidant formula that is superb for people who are physically active in sports. Thus, Synergy Energy is a general purpose multi-vitamin which is only four capsules per day packs a powerful variety nutrients.
