Niacinamide has many unique functional benefits
While the niacinamide form of vitamin B3 doesn’t affect cholesterol levels or cause the red flush of the skin like its B3 cousin niacin does, it still has many unique functional benefits. It’s required for hundreds of enzymatic reactions in the body. It provides vital nutritional support for joint health, balanced blood glucose levels, and the cardiovascular system.* Niacinamide is an inexpensive nutrient that is both safe and effective with a multitude of uses in optimizing physiology.*

Supporting healthy blood sugar levels
GluControl™ is a clinically formulated blend of nutrients designed to be used along with a balanced diet to support healthy blood sugar levels.* Vitamin C (fat and water soluble forms); natural vitamin E (both d-alpha and mixed tocopherol); N-acetyl-cysteine, the ‘ready-to-work’ form of the amino acid cysteine and the proven plant favorite, quercetin, provide widespread cellular protection. These antioxidant nutrients protect healthy blood vessels and promote circulation and capillary integrity. The standardized herbal extracts of cinnamon (CinSulin®), bitter melon and goats rue, help maintain metabolic balance. These herbs have been used for centuries and, more recently, boast positive results in clinical research trials. And vanadium, from vanadyl sulfate, continues to be investigated for its metabolic role as a trace mineral.*

AGEs are one of the culprits behind wrinkles & dulled vision
As you get older, your body forms AGEs, short for Advanced Glycation End Products. AGEs then interact with substances in your body and contribute to your systems getting naturally slower, stiffer, and less sharp. Nutritional imbalances accelerate this process even more. AGEs are one of the culprits behind wrinkles and dulled vision. There are six pathways to AGE formation. The ingredients in AGEBlock inhibit AGE formation in all six pathways, especially those that are formed during periods of nutritional imbalance and with accompanying free radical damage.

A complete vitamin E supplement
E-Team is a complete vitamin E supplement of natural d-alpha vitamin E, mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols. Natural vitamin E, the body’s premier lipid phase antioxidant, is two to five times more bioavailable than synthetic vitamin E. Mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols are helpful in quenching free radicals in the brain cells. Tocotrienols are a powerful vitamin E fraction that may be 40 times more potent than an equivalent amount of standard vitamin E.

Multinutrient blend to help support healthy blood sugar levels*
This multinutrient blend is specially formulated with an emphasis on nutrients to help support healthy blood glucose levels. Essential nutrients like niacinamide and chromium are present at significant levels, along with other, more specialized ingredients that support healthy glucose metabolism. Benfotiamine, n-acetyl cysteine and lipoic acid help protect delicate tissues from glycative and oxidative influences. Optimum D also features standardized extracts of three key herbs — bitter melon, cinnamon (CinSulin®), and gymnema sylvestre — that have been shown in published research studies to help support healthy blood sugar levels.*

An amino acid which may improve athletic performance*
Taurine is needed by the brain, heart, central nervous system and skeletal muscles. Taurine improves the utilization of sugar and potentiates the action of insulin. It also has beneficial effects on eye and heart health.*
