^{Nutri-Smart Formula™}

Nutrients to support mental performance

 

 

DESCRIPTION

Nutri-Smart Formula^™, provided by Douglas Laboratories, is a synergistic and comprehensive combination of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, herbals, and other nutrients, carefully formulated and specifically designed to support mental performance.

FUNCTIONS

Studies show that a high percentage of adults in North America and other developed countries 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 nervous system.

The Nutri-Smart Formula^™ 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. 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 and 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.
 

The Nutri-Smart Formula^™ contains not only the base formula of Douglas Laboratories’ Ultra-Specific Nutrition 2000 Series^™ that offers intensive support for the healthy functioning of the body in general, but also a blend of herbs and additional nutrients specifically formulated to support mental performance including those functions involved in mental alertness, clarity, and memory retention.

Scientific research has shown the oxidative damage to the structure and function of the body’s neuronal tissues, associated with the stresses of modern life, can be attenuated by the various nutrients included in Nutri-Smart Formula^™ such as Ginkgo biloba, vitamin E, vitamin C, coenzyme Q-10, reduced glutathione, proanthocyanidins of red grapes, and the herb Silybum marianum. Additionally, lemon bioflavonoid complex, vitamin E, vitamin C, zinc, and selenium provide potent protection against oxidative damage to the structure and function of the nervous system’s blood vessels.

INDICATIONS

Nutri-Smart Formula^™ tablets may be a useful dietary supplement for those who wish to boost their mental processes.
