Product description: One of the most important minerals for the body Plays a key role in maintaining acid-base and electrolyte balance Uses potassium combined with glycine to increase its bioavailability In the face of the constant hustle and bustle of everyday tasks, everyone wants to take care of themselves - both externally and internally. In this context, the dietary supplement Albion Potassium 99 mg 90 Capsules from SWANSON seems to be an excellent choice. Along with sodium and chlorine, potassium is one of the three minerals that are crucial for the proper functioning of the body. In this supplement, we find potassium in the form of Albion® glycinate chelate. Chelation is the process of chemically combining minerals with amino acids to facilitate their transport through the intestinal wall, enabling their use in the body. Amino acids are not the only 'chelators' that can be used, but they are ideal for minerals. The glycine used for this process has been identified as being well absorbed through the gut, and Albion's glycinate chelates are small enough to enter cells directly.Potassium plays a key role in maintaining acid-base and electrolyte balance in the body. Adequate levels of electrolytes, including potassium, are essential for proper fluid regulation, which in turn affects blood pressure and cell function. In addition, potassium is important for metabolism, taking part in the burning of carbohydrates and proteins, which promotes the efficient use of energy. It is also crucial for oxygenation of the brain and all cells, which is particularly important for athletes and physically active people. Adequate potassium levels support muscle performance - thus helping to lead to better performance and faster recovery after training. Furthermore, potassium plays an important role in the body's detoxification processes, supporting the functioning of the kidneys, which are responsible for filtering the blood and removing toxins and unnecessary waste products.Reach for potassium and discover the benefits it can bring to your health! Serving Information Serving Size: 1 Capsule Amount Per Serving Potassium (from Albion® potassium glycinate complex) 99 mg Other ingredients: Gelatin, rice flour, magnesium stearate. Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take one capsule per day with food and water or as recommended by your healthcare provider. WARNING: For adults only. Consult your healthcare provider before using this or any product if you are pregnant or nursing, taking medication or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children.

Product description: Chromium in the form of picolinate is used to increase its bioavailability Supports weight loss, immunity and heart health Acts as an antioxidant Faced with the constant hustle and bustle of daily activities, everyone wants to take care of their health both externally and internally. In this context, the dietary supplement Albion Chromium 200 mcg 180 Capsules from SWANSON deserves special attention. As a micronutrient, chromium plays a key role in numerous metabolic processes in the body. Although we can find it in many foods, chromium supplementation can be particularly beneficial for athletes or people doing physical work. In this supplement, chromium is found in the form of nicotinate glycinate chelate from Albion®. Chelation is the process by which minerals combine with amino acids, which facilitates their transport through the intestinal walls, enabling better absorption in the body. Although amino acids are not the only chelating substances, they work well for minerals. Glycine, used in this process, has been found to be well absorbed by the gut, and Albion's glycinate chelates have small enough molecules to easily penetrate directly into cells.Chromium is important for the regulation of carbohydrate metabolism, which is key to the proper processing of sugars in the body. It also helps to maintain heart health by regulating blood sugar and cholesterol levels. What's more, chromium acts as an antioxidant, supporting the body in its fight against free radicals, as well as supporting the immune system in general. It should also be added that chromium supports fat burning and, by regulating glucose levels, can help curb cravings for sweets - which is particularly beneficial for people who frequently snack.Reach for chromium and let it support your quest to become a better version of yourself! Serving Information  Serving Size: 1 Capsule Amount Per Serving Chromium (from Albion® chromium nicotinate glycinate chelate) 200 mcg Other ingredients: Rice flour, gelatin, maltodextrin. Suggested Use: As a dietary supplement, take one capsule one to two times per day with food and water. WARNING: For adults only. Do not take this product if you are pregnant or nursing.

Product description: Valuable trace element for the body Supports healthy blood sugar levels and blood pressure Introducing the dietary supplement Albion Vanadium 5 mg 60 Capsules from SWANSON. Despite being a trace element and we only need it in minimal amounts, vanadium plays an important role in the body. Its presence is crucial for many biochemical processes, and its effects are often overlooked. It can be found in some foods, but is also available in supplement form, making it a convenient solution. In this supplement, vanadium is found in the form of Albion® glycinate chelate nicotinate. The chelation process involves chemically combining minerals with amino acids to facilitate their transport through the intestines and absorption by the body. The glycine used in this process is well absorbed through the intestines, and Albion's glycinate chelates are small enough to go directly into cells.Vanadium has a number of beneficial properties that support metabolic health. Its action is similar to that of insulin, meaning that it can help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Product description: A natural substance present in every cell of our body Highly valued for its powerful antioxidant potential and regeneration of other antioxidants We all strive to enjoy full vitality and unwavering enthusiasm for as long as possible, actively supporting our bodies in the face of the passage of time and the hardships of everyday life. In response to these needs, Puritan's Pride has created the dietary supplement Alpha Lipoic Acid 300 mg 120 Rapid Release Softgels! Alpha-lipoic acid, commonly referred to as ALA, is an organic compound that has been attracting enormous interest in the world of science and medicine for decades. Its discovery is linked to intensive research into enzymatic mechanisms and metabolic processes, in which it plays a fundamental role as a powerful free radical scavenger. This substance is a natural component of every human cell, and its highest concentration is found in the mitochondria, our internal energy centres. Although the human body has the ability to synthesise ALA on its own, its reserves can be depleted with age or under the influence of chronic stress and environmental pollution. Taking ALA in supplement form is primarily intended for people who lead an active lifestyle, care about proper metabolism, and anyone who wants to strengthen their body in everyday functioning. The use of modern softgels makes enriching your diet with this valuable ingredient extremely convenient.What distinguishes alpha-lipoic acid from other compounds is its unprecedented versatility – it dissolves in both water and fat, allowing it to penetrate all structures and tissues throughout the body without hindrance. It is highly regarded for its extraordinary antioxidant properties; not only can it effectively neutralise harmful free radicals, but it also has the unique ability to regenerate other "used" antioxidants, such as vitamins E and C, restoring their original protective power. As a result, it is a key pillar supporting energy and metabolic management, facilitating the maintenance of internal homeostasis and protecting cells from the negative effects of oxidative stress, which directly translates into more efficient functioning of the entire body.Choose alpha-lipoic acid and provide your body with the highest possible level of support! Serving Information Serving Size: 1 Softgel Amount Per Serving                                                                Alpha Lipoic Acid 300 mg Other Ingredients: Soybean Oil, Gelatin, Vegetable Glycerin.

Product description: Contains bisglycinate iron - gentler on the body and with increased absorbability Formulated with vitamin C, folic acid and vitamin B12 Supports energy production and the immune system You probably know how important it is to maintain adequate iron levels for the body to function properly. It is with this in mind that the dietary supplement Easy Iron (Iron Glycinate) 28 mg 90 Capsules from Puritan's Pride was developed! Iron is a trace mineral that the body needs in small amounts, but its presence is crucial for health. Our formula contains bisglycinate iron - a form that, unlike other types of iron, is gentle on the digestive system. In addition, this iron is bound to the amino acid glycine, making it easier for the body to absorb and use effectively. The formula is enriched with vitamin C, folic acid and vitamin B12, which act synergistically with iron to support its absorption and increase its effectiveness.Why is iron so important for the body?First of all, iron is an essential component of haemoglobin - a protein present in red blood cells that is responsible for transporting oxygen from the lungs to all cells in the body. Thanks to iron, haemoglobin can deliver oxygen to the tissues, which is essential for energy production and the proper functioning of cells. Iron is also a key component of myoglobin, the protein that stores oxygen in muscles. Myoglobin, like haemoglobin, contains an iron atom that enables it to bind oxygen molecules. This ensures that the muscles have constant access to oxygen, which is particularly important during intense exercise when the demand for oxygen increases rapidly. In addition, iron plays an important role in the functioning of the immune system. It is essential for many processes involved in the body's defence against infection. It is a key component of enzymes and proteins involved in immune reactions, such as the production of reactive oxygen species, which help fight pathogens. Iron also supports the development and activity of T lymphocytes - immune cells responsible for recognising and eliminating threats such as viruses and bacteria.Reach for iron - your body will certainly thank you for it! Serving Information Serving Size: 1 Capsule Amount Per Serving Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid) 60 mg Folate 667 mcg (400mcg folic acid) Vitamin B-12 (as Cyanocobalamin) 8 mcg Iron (as Ferrous Bis-Glycinate) 28 mg Other Ingredients: Vegetable Cellulose, Gelatin.

Lecithin is a complex mixture of fatty compounds, mainly phospholipids, which is a key component of almost every cell in the human body . Its fascinating history dates back to the 19th century, when it was first discovered, and since then researchers have been continually exploring its health and healing properties. Our lecithin is derived from soya, making it an ideal choice for vegans. It is worth noting the active substances in this formula, such as phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol. An additional advantage of this formula is its powder form, which can be easily added to breakfast cereals, juices, soups or salad dressings, making it easy to introduce into the daily diet.Above all, lecithin supports the formation and stabilisation of cell membranes. The phosphatides in lecithin affect the fluidity of membranes, facilitating the transport of substances into cells and their signalling.

Product description: Also known as octanoic acid, it belongs to the group of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) Distinguished by its strong antifungal properties Supports digestive health and provides energy support In a daily rush full of challenges and responsibilities, we often lack the time to take full care of our health, including our digestive system, which plays a key role in our daily functioning. With this in mind, the dietary supplement Caprylic Acid 600 mg 100 Softgels  from Now Foods was created. Caprylic acid, also known as octanoic acid, is an eight-carbon saturated fatty acid that belongs to the medium chain triglyceride (MCT) group. It is naturally found in vegetable fats such as coconut oil and palm kernel oil, as well as in smaller amounts in cow's, goat's and human milk. Unlike long-chain fatty acids, which require a more complex digestion process, caprylic acid is rapidly transported to the liver, where it is converted to energy by beta-oxidation. This makes it a readily available and efficient source of energy, particularly valued in ketogenic diets, which rely on the use of fats as the body's main fuel.What makes caprylic acid so special?First and foremost, its strong antifungal properties, which help to reduce unwanted yeasts such as Candida albicans. As a result, it supports a healthy balance of intestinal microflora, which is crucial for the proper functioning of the digestive and immune systems. In addition, caprylic acid supports the regeneration of the intestinal epithelium. Its anti-inflammatory action helps to alleviate inflammation in the gut, which translates into improved overall wellbeing and digestive comfort. Also not to be forgotten is its ability to provide energy quickly. It is this characteristic that makes caprylic acid particularly appreciated by athletes and physically active people who need effective and natural sources of energy during intense exercise. Its easy absorption and versatile action make it an excellent support for both body and mind.Reach for caprylic acid - give your body the support it deserves!
