Seeking Health Supplements

Key Benefits and Actions*

Easy to adjust dose as needed with powder format
With gentle, well-absorbed iron and minerals
Includes active forms of B vitamins plus L-5-MTHF
May help support a healthy immune system
Optimal Multivitamin Powder by Seeking Health provides bioavailable nutrients in easy-to-absorb forms such as methylfolate and active B12, and minerals that are more readily utilized and gentle on the digestive system. Maintaining adequate nutritional intake from food alone can sometimes be challenging due to poor absorption, poor nutrient content in low-quality food, or other health complications, making supplementation an important part of maintaining optimal health. Optimal Multivitamin Powder has been carefully developed to contain the right proportions of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and other nutrients.*

Each ingredient in this well-rounded multivitamin formula is chosen with its absorption, competitive relationship with other nutrients, allergenic potential, and long-term safety taken into consideration. Certain nutrients such as vitamin C, vitamin E, and B vitamins are included in high-potency amounts because of the vital roles they play in antioxidant support, normal energy production, and maintenance of healthy blood cells. Where possible, vitamins are included in their active coenzyme forms, such as vitamin B12 as adenosylcobalamin (dibencozide) and methylcobalamin, for optimal absorption. B12 is important for normal energy production and cognitive health, but is present in the diet mostly in meats, making it a common deficiency among vegans and vegetarians. L-5-MTHF, or methlyfolate, is the water-soluble coenzyme form of vitamin B9 and is the body’s most prevalent form of folate in plasma. This form of folate may be especially supportive of the body’s methylation process, which is important for healthy growth and development and many other body functions.*

Optimal Multivitamin Powder also includes compounds for specific functions of the body such as the eyes. Lutein and zeaxanthin, carotenoids naturally found in the diet in green leafy plants, are added to support healthy eyes and vision. Trace minerals, or “microminerals,” are important nutrients that the body needs in small amounts to maintain proper function. Typically taken up from the soil by plants, trace minerals may be lacking in the modern diet due to decreasing nutrient content in the soils used in commercial farming. Iron is a well-known mineral that plays an important role in the transfer of oxygen from the lungs to other tissues in the body through the blood. Amino acid-chelated forms of these minerals, such as Ferrochel® gentle iron and others used in this formula, are typically well-tolerated and easier on the stomach than other common supplemental forms.*

The powder format of this carefully formulated multivitamin allows for maximum control over dosage adjustments, making it possible to fine-tune your supplement regimen based on your individual needs. This powder can be added to smoothies or juices, or combined with your favorite powder supplements for a super-charged, tailored daily drink.

Optimal Multivitamin with Iron by Seeking Health is a well-rounded daily multivitamin and mineral supplement with high-potency gentle iron and active B vitamins including L-5-MTHF. Optimal Multivitamin with Iron has been carefully developed to contain the right proportions of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and other nutrients.*

Like our popular Optimal Multivitamin formula, each ingredient in Optimal Multivitamin with Iron is chosen with its absorption, competitive relationship with other nutrients, allergenic potential, and long-term safety taken into account. B vitamins including riboflavin, B6, B12 and folate are included in their active coenzyme forms for optimal absorption and utilization. Benfotiamine, a well-absorbed, fat-soluble form of thiamine, is included to support healthy nerve and muscle function.*

Trace minerals such as zinc, selenium, and chromium are important components of this formula as they are needed for numerous chemical and electrical processes in the body. Typically taken up from the soil by plants, trace minerals may be lacking in the modern diet due to decreasing nutrient content in the soils used in commercial farming. Iron is a well-known mineral that plays an important role in the transfer of oxygen from the lungs to other tissues in the body through the blood. Amino acid-chelated forms of these minerals, such as Ferrochel® gentle iron and others used in this formula, are typically well-tolerated and easier on the stomach than other common supplemental forms.*

Optimal Prenatal Chewable offers a specialized prenatal formula designed to help meet the high nutritional needs of women who are pregnant or preparing for pregnancy – or anyone looking for a well-rounded multivitamin in an easy chewable format. This formula contains both folinic acid and L-5-MTHF, the most biologically available forms of folate, which are essential during pregnancy to support healthy brain development. L-5-MTHF works in conjunction with chelated minerals and coenzyme forms of B vitamins to support cardiovascular, neurologic, and immune health and normal cell growth. This formula is iron-free for maximal versatility.

Optimal Prenatal Chewable also contains two active coenzyme forms of vitamin B12: methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, which may help support healthy fetal development, energy metabolism and the methylation process. The well-balanced vitamin B complex is complete with active forms of riboflavin and B6 to support healthy growth and development.*

Vitamin A is included in two forms: beta-carotene and retinyl palmitate, to help support those who have trouble converting “provitamin A” compounds (such as beta-carotene) into the active retinyl/retinol forms. Vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 provide antioxidant support, supporting a healthy immune system and cellular integrity. Trace minerals are included in their chelated forms, as amino acid-chelated minerals are typically well-absorbed and may be more easily tolerated than alternative supplemental forms. Betaine Anhydrous (TMG) is also added for additional methylation support.*

For the comprehensive prenatal nutrient support with additional herbs and amino acids, consider our Optimal Prenatal Capsules or our great-tasting Optimal Prenatal Protein Powder – available in creamy vanilla or chocolate.

Serving Size: 2 Chewable Tablets

Servings Per Container: 30

Suggested Use

Chew 2 tablets daily after breakfast or lunch and follow with a glass of water, or use as directed by your healthcare professional. Do not take within 5 hours of bedtime as it may interfere with sleep.

Warnings

Children and pregnant or lactating women should consult their healthcare practitioner prior to use. Do not use if tamper seal is damaged. Consult with your healthcare practitioner before use. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid if allergic to any ingredient. Do not exceed 1500 mcg intake per day of preformed vitamin A (retinol or retinyl forms).

Optimal Prenatal with Plant-Based-Protein by Seeking Health provides a comprehensive prenatal formula with a unique blend of amino acids, chelated minerals, and vitamins designed to meet the high nutritional needs of women who are pregnant or preparing for pregnancy. While this nutrient blend is specifically formulated to support healthy fetal development and prenatal nutrition, Optimal Prenatal Powder may also be taken whenever the supplemental need for a potent and pure multivitamin and supplemental protein exists.*

This complex formula is made with careful consideration for not only the increased demand for certain nutrients, but also for digestive sensitivity that can occur during pregnancy. This product contains L-5-MTHF, the most biologically available form of folate, which is essential to support healthy cognitive development. Optimal Prenatal also provides folinic acid, a non-methylated form of folate that can be easily converted to coenzyme forms within the body. This optimal blend of folates may work in conjunction with amino acids, chelated minerals, and other B vitamins to support normal cell growth and cardiovascular, neurologic and immune health.*

Optimal Prenatal with Plant-Based-Protein also contain two active coenzyme forms of vitamin B12: methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin, which may help support healthy fetal development, energy metabolism and the methylation process. The well-balanced vitamin B complex is complete with active forms of riboflavin and B6, plus additional biotin to support healthy growth and development. Biotin may also help support healthy skin, hair and nails. Both vitamin B6 and ginger extract are special features of this formula, supporting digestive comfort.*

Vitamin A is included in two forms: beta-carotene and retinyl palmitate, to help support those who have trouble converting “provitamin A” compounds (such as beta-carotene) into the active retinyl/retinol forms. Vitamin C and coenzyme Q10 provide antioxidant support, supporting a healthy immune system and cellular integrity. Red raspberry leaf has historically been used as a tonic for pregnant women to help support circulation, uterine comfort and digestion. Trace minerals are included in their chelated forms, as amino acid-chelated minerals are typically well-absorbed and may be more easily tolerated than alternative supplemental forms. Betaine HCl is also added to support healthy digestion and optimize absorption of nutrients.*

Optimal Prenatal includes only a small amount of iron, which is naturally occurring in the vegetarian protein blend, as some women do not process iron well or do not need iron supplementation. If iron supplementation is needed, consider Optimal Iron Plus Cofactors; for a gentle, well-absorbed chelated iron.*

For the same comprehensive prenatal nutrient support without the additional protein, consider our Optimal Prenatal Capsules.

Key Benefits and Actions*

Contains 12 species of probiotic bacteria to support a diverse, healthy intestinal environment
May help support healthy digestion
May help to support healthy bowel tone
Proprietary polysaccharide technology may help to preserve viability of organisms

ProBiota 12 Powder by Seeking Health provide 100 billion CFUs of beneficial microorganisms per serving to support a healthy digestive system. This synergistic blend of 12 probiotic species, including both Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains, may help to repopulate beneficial microflora in the gut while supporting a healthy immune system and digestive process. This supplement includes a prebiotic base to provide nourishment for the beneficial bacteria and uses a proprietary polysaccharide complex to help protect the viable organisms as they make their way through the upper digestive tract.*

Probiotic formulas combining multiple species, such as ProBiota 12, are thought to provide more comprehensive support for the complex microbiome of the human gut than single-species products. Each species occupies a specific “niche,” with some preferring conditions in the small intestine while others may thrive in the colon, genitourinary tract, or elsewhere in the body. While some probiotic species are known to colonize the human digestive tract, others are transient, or present in the intestines only when consumed regularly as part of the diet. ProBiota 12 includes both colonizing and transient strains, including Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus, which are thought to contribute to some of the health-promoting properties of cultured yogurt.*

It is sometimes said that immune health begins in the gut. Special tissues in the gut make up more than 60% of the body’s overall immune support. The 12 species of probiotics in ProBiota 12 produce lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and other fermentation products that may help support the body’s natural defenses against harmful bacteria, yeast and viruses. These probiotic species may also help support the immune system by competing with unwanted or harmful bacteria for nutrients and space for colonization. They also produce short-chain fatty acids (acetate, propionate, and butyrate) that help provide nourishment for cells in the colon.*

For the same blend of 12 probiotic species in a convenient capsule format, consider our ProBiota 12 Capsules.*

Serving Size: 1/4 Teaspoon (Approx. 1g)

Servings Per Container: 60

Suitable for Vegans and Vegetarians

Free of:

Dairy, Egg, Fish, Shellfish, Tree Nuts, Peanuts, Wheat, Soy, Gluten

Suggested Use

Warnings

Children and pregnant or lactating women should consult their healthcare practitioner prior to use. Do not use if full-bottle shrinkwrap is broken or missing.

ProBiota Bifido by Seeking Health is a specialized blend that includes four extensively researched Bifidobacterium strains that reside primarily in the mucosal lining near the terminus of the small intestine, as well as in the colon and the genitourinary tract. These strains may assist in creating a balanced intestinal environment by crowding out unwanted or harmful bacteria and producing acetic and lactic acids that may help inhibit the growth of unfriendly flora.*

It is sometimes said that immune health begins in the gut. Special tissues in the gut make up more than 60% of the body’s overall immune support. The strains of probiotic bacteria in ProBiota Bifido produce lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and other fermentation products that may help support the body’s natural defenses against harmful bacteria, yeast and viruses. These probiotic species may also help support the immune system by competing with unwanted or harmful bacteria for nutrients and space for colonization. They also produce short-chain fatty acids (acetate, propionate, and butyrate) which nourish the colon.*

A probiotic made up of exclusively bifidobacteria, such as ProBiota Bifido, may be ideal for those who have concerns about the potential histamine-producing activity of the certain strains of Lactobacillus bacteria. For those who prefer a broad-spectrum probiotic including Lactobacillus strains, consider our ProBiota 12 Capsules or Powder.*
