Vitamins and Minerals

Complete line of Vit A , Vit B,Vit C, Nicotinic acid, Tocopherol, Thiamine, Riboflavin, Niacin, Calcium Potassium, Iron, Copper, Iodine, Calcium, Magnesium, Sodium, Phosphorus, Chlorine, Sulfur Manganese, Zinc Provide virtually no energy but are the essential cofactors for metabolism to function. Micronutrients are primarily vitamins (e.g., vitamins A, B, C, D, E, and K), minerals (such as calcium and phosphorous), and trace elements (such as iron, zinc, selenium, and manganese). Although these are required in very small amounts in the diet, they are nevertheless key dietary components. The processes of growth, energy production, and many other normal functions would not occur without them. Insufficient intake of either can lead to problems.

Micronutrients and Macronutrients

Macronutrients of which the body requires relatively large amounts: calories,carbohydrates, fiber, fat, fatty acids, cholesterol, protein, amino acids, and water energy production, and many other normal functions would not occur without them. Insufficient intake of either can lead to problems.

Fiber

Soluble fiber found in First Vita Plus combines with water to form a gel in our intestinal tracts, which softens our stools and slows the rate of food that passes through our digestive systems. Insoluble fiber can be found in vegetables and wheat bran. This fiber tends to bulk in size when absorbing water, thus accelerating the rate at which food passes through our systems Moringa : 0.9 g/100gm, Corchorus: 1.7-2.0 g/100 g, Amaranthus: 9.8-10.4%

Antioxidants

Antioxidants are substances that may protect cells from the damage caused by unstable molecules known as free radicals. Free radical damage may lead to cancer. Antioxidants interact with and stabilize free radicals and may prevent some of the damage free radicals otherwise might cause. Vitamin E, Quadruple Betacarotene, Citric acid, flavonoids

Phytochemicals

Phytochemicals are non-nutritive plant chemicals that have protective or disease preventive properties. There are more than thousand known phytochemicals. It is well-known that plant produce these chemicals to protect itself but recent research demonstrate that many phytochemicals can protect humans against diseases. Amino acids, beta sitosterol, pectinesterase, thiocyanate, Capsaicin, Solanine, Capsicin, volatile oils fixed oils, entosans, Pectin, volatile oil – citral, geraniol, d-camphene, d-limonene, d-linolool anthranilic acid, linalyn acetate, indol, stachydine, hesperidin
