DaVINCI
SPECTRA™ WOMAN
Why should I choose DaVinci’s Spectra‘ Woman multiple
over other multiples for women?
DaVinci’s Spectra‘ Woman is the highest quality
and highest potency multiple for women available today*. Spectra
Woman is the only woman’s forumula to contain 56 nutrients
including those most important for women like calcium (for
bone health), biotin (for nail and hair growth), iron (for
healthy red blood cells), octacosanol, gamma linoleic acid,
and grape seed extract (a potent antioxidant important for
maintaining capillary strength).
Spectra‘ Woman takes the guesswork
out of a woman’s daily supplement program by providing
the nutrients most needed by women in their childbearing years
and by focusing on the FORM, BALANCE, and POTENCY of the nutrients.
What
does “form” mean when talking about a multiple
formula?
“Form” refers to the design of a nurient that
can affect the efficiency of how that nutrient is utilized
by the body.
Spectra Woman offers several nutrients in
the most effective “form”.*
Vitamin C 1,000 mg (Ascorbate): Ascorbates
are Vitamin C molecules attached to minerals. All Vitamin
C must be hooked up to minerals before it can go into the
bloodstream to be used by the body. Often minerals are not
at the right time or in the right place to properly use Vitamin
C. By supplying mineral ascorbates in Spectra‘ Woman,
you get the full benefits of Vitamin C.*
Natural Vitamin E 400 IU (d-alpha tocopheryl succinate): This
is the most active and natural form of Vitamin E available.
L-Cysteine,
L-Glutamine, and DL-Methionine: these amino acids are necessary
for increased mental energy and are in the pure crystalline
form for immediate assimilation by the body.*
Digestive
Enzymes:
Spectra‘ Woman contains Enzopharm“ Plus a proprietary
blend of vegetarian enzymes. This combination of digestive
enzymes aids the body in digesting and absorbing food nutrients
that are not easily assimilated.
What
does “Balance” mean in a multiple?
Vitamins B1, B2, and B6, for example, should be balanced (or
in the same basic potency) within a B Complex preparation.
This is because the B Vitamins are closely related in function.
B1, B2, and B6, in particular, tend to be utilized at the
same rate by the body. Spectra‘ Woman’s B Complex
is balanced at a level of 70 mg per B Vitamin in four tablets.
What
else sets Spectra‘ Woman apart from the others?
Spectra‘ Woman includes in its formula nutrients
that are of a particular importance for today’s woman:
Gamma
Linolenic Acid (from Evening Primrose Oil) –
an essential fatty acid that is necessary for the production
of hormone-like substances in the body known as prostaglandins,
in particular prostaglandins from the E1 Series or PGE1. Aging,
stress, PMS, obesity, and degeneration have all been associated
with low levels of PGE1 in the body.*
Grape
Seed Extract – a rich source of a group of
waer-soluble bioflavonoids known as proanthocyanidins or PCOs.
PCOs are potent antioxidants and have also been known to strengthen
the capillaries.* Bruising, varicose veins, and abnormal menstrual
bleeding are associated with weak capillaries. Grape Seed
Extract is guaranteed to yield 95% proanthocyanidins.
Calcium
– a diet rich in calcium is essential for women.
Studies indicate that 80% of all American women are deficient
in calcium. Spectra‘ Woman contains 100% of the RDA
for Calcium.
Octacosanol
– is a natural constituent of wheat germ oil that supports
endurance, stamina, and strength.*
Why
isn’t Vitamin A included in Spectra‘ Woman?
A Nov. ’95 article in the New England Journal of Medicine
reports that there may be a possible relationship between
consuming more than 10,000 IU of Vitamin A per day and some
types of birth defects.
As
a precautionary measure, the FDA has made the following recommendation:
“Women of childbearing age are advised to choose fortified
foods that contain Vitamin A in the form of beta-carotene
rather than preformed Vitamin A, whenever possible”.
DaVinci’s Spectra‘ Woman follows that recommendation
by providing 15,000 IU of beta-carotene to Vitamin A only
when needed.
How
do I know if I need a multiple vitamin/mineral supplement
like DaVinci’s Spectra‘ Woman?
Every woman can benefit from a high quality multiple formulation
that is rich in the nutrients that focus on FORM, BALANCE,
and POTENCY. Spectra‘ Woman provides a strong foundation
for any nutritional program.
Spectra‘
Woman also eliminates the high cost of buying individual nutrients
by providing all you need in one superior formula.
