BENEFITS
Good Nutrition to Support Health & Wellness. The Essentials Program is for individuals who want to look their best but who may not eat the variety and quality of foods to obtain essential nutrients.

High-Quality Ingredients & Formulations. Each of the supplements in the Essentials Program has been tested for quality and efficacy. 

Chronotherapy to Provide the Right Nutrients at the Right Time. VitaMedica’s Multi-Vitamin & Mineral morning formulation contains the B-complex or “anti-stress” vitamins that support energy production.  The evening formulation contains minerals to support rest and relaxation.

Natural Vitamins. The Multi-Vitamin & Mineral supplement contains natural Vitamin E. Research has shown that natural vitamins provide better absorption than their synthetic counterparts.

Natural Carotenoid Blend. The Multi-Vitamin & Mineral supplement contains Betatene®, a mixed, natural carotene blend that includes beta-carotene, alpha-carotene, cryptoxanthin, zeaxanthin and lutein.  Research suggests that a range of carotenes provides better antioxidant protection.  Lutein provides protection against macular degeneration of the eye. 

The Right Balance of Vitamins & Minerals. Eliminates the worry about whether you’re taking the right amount, or in the right combination.

Chelated Minerals for Maximal Absorption.   Chelation, which combines a mineral with an amino acid, helps absorption to ensure that you get what you paid for.

Internal Moisturization. Flax Seed Oil internally lubricates the skin.  The supplement is particularly beneficial for individuals with mature skin, which is dryer due to reduced sebum production, leading to decreased moisture retention.

Better Hormonal Balance. Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids are precursors for prostaglandins, hormone-like compounds that regulate many bodily functions.

Improved Allergic & Inflammatory Response. A deficiency of Omega-3 fatty acids is often a contributory factor to many inflammatory conditions of the skin such eczema and psoriasis.

Convenient & Easy to Use. The Essentials Program includes a brochure and detailed instruction card. And, because the product system is available at your doctor’s office, you don’t need to shop at a retail store to determine which products are appropriate for you.

Available Only Through Health Care Professionals. The Essentials Program is only available through health care professionals. This ensures that you get the support of a skin care professional to answer any questions you may have.
