Solgar Advanced Antioxidant Formula 60 Caps

Solgar Advanced Antioxidant Formula is a highly comprehensive antioxidant formula that includes a variety of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and plant extracts, helping to minimize damage caused by free radicals.

Free radicals are produced by the body when we breathe, digest food, exercise, or even sleep. They also arise naturally due to emotional stress, ultraviolet light, radiation, and environmental pollution. Free radicals can damage the body by causing cellular wear and tear, reducing defenses against disease, and placing the body under “stress.”

To mitigate the effects of free radicals, an adequate balance of antioxidants is essential. Key antioxidants include beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, and plant-derived compounds such as turmeric and ginkgo biloba.

Antioxidants are obtained through a healthy, balanced diet, but supplementation may be necessary to achieve optimal intake.

The special Solgar Advanced Antioxidant Formula combines vitamins C and E with minerals such as zinc, selenium, and copper, all of which have strong antioxidant properties. To achieve a holistic approach, this formula also includes various amino acids.

This specialized formula incorporates multiple food-derived bioactive ingredients such as green tea, red wine extract, and Pycnogenol® (a registered trademark in the USA for products containing French maritime pine bark). Additional plant antioxidants are included for enhanced synergy, including ginkgo biloba, spirulina, and milk thistle. Solgar® Advanced Antioxidant Formula is suitable for vegetarians, and the recommended dose is 2 vegetable capsules daily, providing vitamins, minerals, and amino acids.

Vitamin C contributes to:

• Normal collagen formation for the proper function of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth
• Normal energy-yielding metabolism
• Normal functioning of the nervous system
• Normal psychological function
• Normal immune system function, including during and after intense physical exercise
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue
• Regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E
• Increased iron absorption

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin and an essential nutrient with strong antioxidant properties. It includes natural vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopherol), which studies suggest is 1.3 times more bioavailable than synthetic forms.

Zinc contributes to:

• Maintenance of healthy hair, skin, and nails
• Carbohydrate metabolism
• Cognitive function
• Fertility and reproduction
• Vitamin A metabolism
• Normal testosterone levels in the blood
• Vision function
• Immune system function
• Maintenance of healthy bones
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress

Manganese contributes to:

• Normal energy-yielding metabolism
• Maintenance of healthy bones
• Normal formation of connective tissue
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress

Rosehip contains bioflavonoids naturally occurring alongside vitamin C. These enhance absorption and bioavailability, improving vitamin C utilization. Tocopherols are natural forms of vitamin E derived from plant oils with strong antioxidant properties.

Vitamin A contributes to:

• Normal iron metabolism
• Maintenance of normal mucous membranes
• Maintenance of healthy skin
• Normal vision
• Normal immune system function
• Cell specialization

Selenium contributes to:

• Normal spermatogenesis
• Maintenance of healthy hair and nails
• Normal immune system function
• Normal thyroid function
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress

Copper contributes to:

• Maintenance of normal connective tissues
• Normal energy metabolism
• Normal functioning of the nervous system
• Normal hair pigmentation
• Normal iron transport in the body
• Normal skin pigmentation
• Normal immune system function
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) contributes to:

• Normal energy-yielding metabolism
• Normal nervous system function
• Maintenance of normal mucous membranes
• Maintenance of normal red blood cells
• Maintenance of healthy skin
• Maintenance of normal vision
• Normal iron metabolism
• Protection of cells from oxidative stress
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue

This product also includes:

• Taurine, an essential amino acid not produced by the body, involved in multiple bodily functions
• L-glutathione, formed from three amino acids (glutamic acid, cysteine, glycine) and important for liver function
• L-cysteine, a sulfur-containing amino acid involved in metabolism and keratin formation (skin, hair, nails), and a precursor of glutathione
• Carotenoids, plant pigments responsible for yellow, red, and orange colors in fruits and vegetables
