Maintenance Kit - The Daily Basics

You save $4.68 The Maintanence Kit VM-75 Daily Multi-Vitamin/Mineral Tablets from Solgar replaces the discontinued Maxi-Vim tablets. After searching for a vendor that has a quality daily vitamin/mineral formula that I can recommend to my low-carb customers, I have chosen Solgar's VM-75 daily multi-vitamin/mineral tablets. This product contains a good basic formula that works well for individuals following a low-carb diet. Please note that VM-75 does not contain vitamin A in the form of retinyl palmitate; rather it contain beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A. It is my opinion that the palmitate form of vitamin A should not be supplemented in the diet, especially for individuals following a low-carb diet. Magnesium and potassium are also important for preventing insulin resistance. I have an excellent absorbable formula of aspartate-chelated magnesium and potassium available. This form of magnesium has health benefits that improve insulin sensitivity, strengthen bones, enhance fat metabolism, and much more. Take 300-600 mg of chelated magnesium and 100-200 mg of chelated potassium per day (2-4 tablets). Essential Oils The most practical way to increase your Omea-3 fatty acids is to take essential oils in softgel capsules. Flaxseed, borage, and fish oil contain a good blend of essential fatty acids necessary for maintaining health. I offer Essential oils that contain 400mg each of flax oil, borage oil, and fish oil and 5 I.U. of vitamin E. For maintenance, take 1-2 softgels per day. Folic Acid (vitamin B 9) appears to play an important role in fatty acid synthesis. There is also significant evidence that most of us are deficient in this vitamin. For a basic maintenance dose, I recommend 800-1600 mcg per day or 1-2 tablets.
