Full of vital nutrients required for physical and mental health; amino acids, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, powerful antioxidants and pigment molecules (lutein, zeaxanthin, chlorophyll, carotenes and afanin - unique to Klamath AFA), Simply Vital vitalMAX provides exceptional support for complete health and well-being. Simply Vital vitalMAX has been recommended by Health Editors at: The Sunday Express, Healthy & Organic Living, Positive Health, Health & Fitness and ZEST magazines. Ingredients: - Klamath blue-green algae (Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA)) is a wild blue-green algae, which grows in the unique, cold, clear waters of Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, USA, an environment that allows it to develop into what nutritionists consider the most nutrient abundant food source on our planet! AFA contains: - 20 amino acids, 28 minerals and oligoelements, 14 vitamins and the essential fatty acids omega-3 and 6 (in the optimum ratio of 2:1). It is a particularly rich source of vitamin B12 and is therefore a valuable supplement for vegetarians/vegans. - Super antioxidant molecules; SOD and glutathione, endogenous antioxidants that are vitally important for health). - A rich supply of carotenoids, including alpha-carotene, beta-carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, lycopene, cryptoxanthin and aphanin - a carotenoid unique to AFA. Research has found that a diverse selection of natural carotenoids works synergistically and offers greater antioxidant protection than large amounts of a single antioxidant. Importantly the beta-carotene found in AFA is part of the full range of carotenoids (alpha, gamma, etc.) since it has been widely shown that only a complete range of carotenoids produces a powerful antioxidant action and beta-carotene alone paradoxically produces an oxidising effect, i.e. never take beta-carotene supplements! - A high concentration of chlorophyll, necessary to cleanse and detoxify the blood. - Thousands of enzymes, which help the body regenerate and prevent illness. - Significant quantities of phenylethylamine (PEA), the amino acid we naturally produce when we feel calm, happy and joyful. PEA has specific neuro-regenerating properties and is responsible for increasing brain attention, mental acuity and improving mood. - VegiMineral-77e: Obtained from fossilised plant strata in the Utah desert, VegiMineral-77e contains at least 77 minerals and oligoelements. Since these minerals are derived from plant fossils, they have been naturally turned into organic minerals able to be fully assimilated into our body (unlike synthetic multi-mineral mixtures, which our body does not recognise as food). In combination with the wide range of minerals present in AFA, vitalMAX offers an extremely effective way to re-supply needed minerals to the body. - Concentrated extract from AFA: With high levels of phenylethylamine (PEA) and phycocyanin. As mentioned above, PEA has specific neuro-regenerating properties; improving attention, mental acuity and mood as well as increasing the level of freely circulating dopamine in the nervous system. Dopamine is the neurotransmitter that keeps your brain alert and active and it is crucial for executive functions such as constructive thought, concentration, short-term memory and motivation. Dopamine is then further involved in the regulation of other hormones including insulin and is necessary for the generation of pleasurable feelings and sexual desire. Dopamine is also involved in the control and coordination of movement. Directions for use: Take 2 Simply Vital vitalMAX capsules with meals as required. Children under 12 years: half the adult dose. Free from: Colours, gluten, lactose, preservatives, salt, starch, sugar, yeast, GM crops. Suitable for vegetarians and vegans. More Info

ICaps Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is a safe and effective ocular dietary supplement. ICaps Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is a specialized, comprehensive formula of carotenoids, antioxidants and minerals important to vision. Lutein and Zeaxanthin are natural carotenoids that have been shown through structural and clinical studies to be concentrated in the macular segment of the retina. These carotenoids are not produced by the human body, and their accumulation in the eye is dependent on dietary intake. ICaps Eye Vitamin & Mineral Supplement Lutein & Zeaxanthin Formula is the only major ocular antioxidant supplement that has a delayed release formula. This unique delayed release formula allows the ingredients to dissolve gradually, thereby contributing to greater absorption by the body. More Info

Scientists have long known that the yellow colour, or pigment, inside the macular comes from the carotenoids: lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin. They believe these plant compounds help protect the eye by absorbing blue light and neutralising free radicals. The MacuShield patented blend, supplied by Inter Eyecare Opticians, brings together all three of these carotenoids (meso-zeaxanthin, lutein & zeaxanthin) to help maintain eye health throughout our later years. What is Macular Pigment and why is it so important? There is an important and naturally occurring pigment at the back of the eye, known as macular pigment. This pigment is made up of 3 dietary compounds, known as lutein, zeaxanthin and meso-zeaxanthin. Macular pigment is yellow in colour and therefore absorbs damaging blue light. What are the roles of Lutein and Zeaxanthin? Lutein and zeaxanthin are dietary carotenoids that filter damaging high-energy blue wavelength light from the visible-light spectrum by as much as 90%. Lutein and zeaxanthin a More Info
