Magnesium -elemental Calcium -elemental Vitamin A Vitamin D	250 mg 125 mg 400 I.U. 40 I.U.

The Cal-Mag manufactured by Nutritional Engineering, has been formulated specially to help overcome the magnesium deficiency that can be caused by high level calcium supplementation. Because of the alarming increase of osteoporosis, many doctors, nutritionists, and supplement manufacturers are pushing high level calcium supplementation (1000 mg - 3000 mg per day), assuming that increased calcium will solve the problem. Even the anti-acid producers are getting into the calcium supplementation act. Extra calcium is being added to milk, even soft drinks and orange juice. In the midst of all this calcium furor it seems that some of the basic biochemistry of calcium metabolism and the close involvement of calcium with other nutrients such as potassium and magnesium, have been forgotten or ignored.

High levels of calcium supplementation suppress magnesium absorption. This can cause a magnesium deficiency. A magnesium deficiency results in increased production of the PTH(parathyroid hormone) which mobilizes bone calcium, transferring it from bone into soft tissues, (cells), where it does not belong in increased amounts. This continual loss can cause bone mass loss and weakening of the bone structure.

Magnesium deficiency causes a decrease in the production, by the kidneys, of dihydroxy vitamin D-3 which results in inefficient absorption of calcium by the intestines and a further loss of magnesium by the kidneys. This calcium deficiency is made up by mobilizing calcium from the bones. The abnormal levels of PTH hormone, because of magnesium deficiency, causes this calcium to end up in the soft tissues(cells) rather than being redeposited in the bone. This calcium in the cells inhibits enzyme reactions that are necessary for cellular health and suppresses the production of ATP by the mitochondria of the cells. The ATP is the energizer, the source of energy for the cell. The cell operation becomes sluggish and less efficient. This process can result in accelerated aging and premature death of cells. This increase of cellular calcium, at the expense of magnesium and potassium, is partially responsible for chemical imbalances in the cell that make us more susceptable to degenerative processes.

Natural foods (whole grains, fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds) have ratios of magnesium to calcium of 2-8 parts magnesium to 1 part calcium. It would seem a more logical approach to osteoporosis would be to increase our magnesium intake, increase our exercise and change our dietary habits to minimize or exclude those items which drain our body of magnesium, calcium and potassium, such as processed foods, refined sugars, high protein intake, high phosphates and high fats. The best way to obtain magnesium, calcium and other nutrients is by eating properly. In the natural foods the Creator has balanced the nutrients for us. Supplements are helpful as insurance but should only be used to supplement.

The Vita-Mins manufactured by Nutritional Engineering, Ltd are multivitamin-mineral tablets produced from pure non-allergenic vitamin and mineral compounds, balanced to give a low level, more than adequate, supplementation. Vita-Mins are extra fortified with those vitamins and minerals which are usually deficient in our modern diet.

Vitamins are very potent chemical agents that are utilized, in our body, in very small amounts. Vitamins are catalysts, that function as coenzymes and as anti-oxidants, making it possible for our bodies to utilize the nutrients from foods. The minerals work synergistically with the vitamins. To receive maximum benefits from Vita-Mins they should be taken with meals.

Vita-Mins are compounded so that one tablet with each meal (3 tablets per day) provides adequate supplementation, unless a person suffers from deficiencies that require higher dosage. Higher dosage can be achieved by increasing the number of tablets per day.

We need to take time to incorporate a wellness program into our lives, a plan of preventative maintenance. If we don't take time now, we will have to make time later for sickness. The Vita-Mins can help provide an extra measure of insurance to help our wellness program.

Each tablet contains
Vitamin C Citrus bioflavonids Acidophilus lactobacillus q.s. excipients	100 mg 100 mg 100 mg

A unique dietary supplement developed by Robert Koch, DSc and produced by Nutritional Engineering, Ltd.. The C-dophilus is manufactured with live freeze dried acidophilus lactobacillus bacteria.

The capsules contain no artificial colors, preservatives, corn or wheat products. The acidophilus bacteria are cultured on whey, each tablet containing a minimum of 50 million live bacteria, which in a short time, in the intestinal tract, multiply many times. The acidophilus is a strain of a beneficial bacteria naturally inhabiting the intestinal tract. Being a friendly bacteria, the acidophilus can be helpful in many ways, most of which involve digestion and bowel function. The acidophilus lactobacillus is available in a variety of forms. It is in yogurt, in various cultured milk products, and in the concentrated supplement C-dophilus.

The acidophilus bacteria help to maintain normal bowel function. Researchers have discovered that the acidophilus bacteria produce a natural antibiotic activity called "acidophillin" which inhibits the growth of many different types of harmful bacteria, including streptococcus, staphylococcus, E. coli, and salmonella. These infection fighters that should be present in our colon can help fight diarrhea and constipation whether it arises from adverse food reactions or from the use of various over the counter prescription drugs. Acidophilus bacteria are very helpful in restoring and maintaining a healthy internal ecology. Many antibiotics that are used, kill these friends as well as the harmful bacteria in the intestines. Taking C-dophilus helps restore these friendly bacteria.

There are additional benefits provided by the C-dophilus. A healthy intestinal flora helps keep in check the opportunistic candida albicans which causes some yeast infections. Another bonus produced by these friendly bacteria - when they are established and growing in our colon, they control bad bacteria and detoxify the colon. They also produce several "B" vitamins, and vitamin K. They produce many enzymes that protect the colon from the ravages of chemicals that are carcinogens and that could contribute to the formation of colon cancer.

The vitamin C and the bioflavonoids that are formulated with the acidophilus help keep the bacteria healthy and function as antioxidants in the intestinal tract and in the cells that line the gut. To maintain freshness and prolong the viability of the bacteria, the product is produced regularly in small batches and stored under refrigeration up to the time it is shipped. When you receive your product PLEASE KEEP IT REFRIGERATED. C-dophilus maintains full potency for 9 months when refrigerated, only 6 months when not refrigerated.

Each capsule contains
200 mg of an 80% extract of th milk thistle that is standardized to provide 160 mg of the silymarin group of flavonoids which include silybinin, silydianin, and silychristin. q.s. excipients The flavonoids from the concentrates and whole extracts of the milk thistle seeds are some of the most potent liver protecting substances known.

The liver is the most important organ of metabolism. Disruption of normal liver function results in significant disruption of all metabolic processes. The metabolic functions of the liver include regulation of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism, storage of vitamins and minerals, and detoxification reactions. Disruption, to varying degrees, of liver function can be a major contributor to the development of degenerative disease and premature aging. Since the liver is the organ that detoxifies all the chemicals that come into the body it is in need of all the help we can provide The milk thistle provides a non toxic extract that offers significant protection against liver damage by (1) preventing free radical damage (2) by preventing the formation of damaging leukotrienes and (3) by stimulating the production of new liver cells.

In human studies, silymarin has been shown to have significant positive effects in treating liver diseases, including cirrhosis and chronic hepatitis. Positive results have been experienced by many suffering from psoriasis through the use of milk thistle. It is another of Natures weapons that we can use to fight disease and improve the quality of our lives.
