Read moreWhat is BioMax Activated B complex?
Biomax® Activated VIT B.CO Liposomal® has been designed and developed with the latest scientific understanding of vitamin Bs and human health. Delivering a full and potent B-complex via specialised liposomal technology, this patented formulation is able to overcome the challenges of conventional vitamin B supplementation.
Quite simply, Biomax® Activated VIT B.CO Liposomal® is the next-generation innovation in vitamin B complex supplementation. It contains Quatrefolic®, a natural, concentrated form of activated folate (vitamin B9), which is a crucial nutrient for all humans. Naturally produced and easily absorbed, Quatrefolic® is regarded as the best supplemental form of folate. While others must be converted multiple times within your body before they can be utilised, Quatrefolic® delivers the bioactive form of folate, known as methyltetrahydrofolate (or 5-MTHF), which is ready to be used by your body without conversion.
Biomax® Activated VIT B.CO Liposomal® uses liposome entrapment technology to further enhance the product’s absorption and bioavailability. This innovative combination of clinically proven technologies facilitates a more effective dosage of high-quality activated folate as well as the active forms of vitamins B1, B2, B6 and B12. -
Buy productWhat is Biotin?
Biotin is a water-soluble vitamin necessary for normal growth and body function. Biotin functions as a key regulatory element in gluconeogenesis, fatty acid synthesis, and in the metabolism of some amino acids. Alongside its role in energy production, biotin enhances the synthesis of certain proteins. In addition, biotin promotes healthy immune system function and plays a critical role in skin health. -
Buy productWhat is Brewer’s Yeast?
As hinted in the name, brewer’s yeast is a by-product of the beer-brewing process that is produced through the cultivation of a particular species of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) on malted barley. Once the fermentation process is complete the yeast is separated from the beer, dried via rollers and then debittered for human consumption. Brewer’s yeast is a naturally occurring source of protein, as well as several vitamins and mineralsBrewer’s Yeast has several naturally occurring vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients. No synthetic vitamins are added to the yeast during processing.
Brewer’s Yeast has naturally occurring B-vitamins such as: Thiamin (Vitamin B-1), Riboflavin (Vitamin B-2), Niacin, Vitamin B-6, Folic Acid, Vitamin B-12, Biotin and Pantothenic Acid.

Read moreWhat is what is Epicor?
EpiCor® is an innovative ingredient that is derived through a proprietary process from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a common single cell microorganism. EpiCor® has been shown in scientific studies to support the body’s ability to initiate the proper immune response at the appropriate time, thereby helping to maintain normal immune system balance. NOW® EpiCor® Plus Immunity contains zinc, selenium, and vitamins D-3 and C to offer additional support for the body’s healthy immune response. EpiCor® is a registered trademark of Embria Health Sciences, L.L.C.; TRAACS® is a registered trademark of Albion Laboratories, Inc. Natural colour variation may occur in this product. -
Buy productWhat is Niacinamide?
Niacinamide (Vitamin B-3) is a form of Niacin, a watersoluble B-Vitamin. It is a derivative of Niacin that does not cause the “flush” normally associated with taking high doses of Niacin. Niacinamide is readily converted into the bioactive forms of Niacin, NAD+, NADH, NADP, and NADPH, which are vital cofactors in cellular energy production and are critical for the maintenance of DNA stability.
Niacinamide and Niacin are two different forms of Vitamin B-3. Niacinamide does not cause a Niacin flush. -
Buy productP-5-P 50mg 90VC
The “coenzyme” form of a B vitamin refers to its biologically active form in the human body. B vitamins are especially important for nervous system and neurological health, but their roles as coenzymes make them critical for normal cellular function.

Read moreWhat is PQQ Energy?
Mitochondria are the organelles that produce almost all of the cellular energy the body requires. While present in all cells, organs like the heart and brain are particularly dense with mitochondria due to their high energy demands. Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a B vitamin-like enzyme cofactor that supports the integrity of mitochondrial structures and supports the generation of new mitochondria within cells. PQQ may thus robust cellular energy production, support heart health and support normal brain function. CoQ10 and acetyl-L-carnitine have been included for their critical roles in supporting mitochondrial function and energy production.

Buy productWhat is PQQ?
With 200 mg Alpha Lipoic Acid Mitochondrial Support Mitochondria are the parts of the cell that produce energy. While all cells have them, the heart and brain are especially dense with mitochondria due to their high energy demands. Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ) is a B vitamin-like compound that helps to protect mitochondria from free radicals and promotes the production of new mitochondria within cells PQQ may thus help to maintain robust cellular energy production, support heart health, and promote normal cognitive function. Extra Strength PQQ includes alpha lipoic acid to complement PQQ’s free radical scavenging abilities. This extra strength product has twice the PQQ (40 mg per capsule) as in our regular strength product (20 mg per capsule). -
Read morePrima – Vitamin D test
Vitamin D refers to a group of fat-soluble secosteroids responsible for increasing intestinal absorption of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphate and zinc. Vitamin D is produced by skin exposed to ultraviolet B radiation or obtained from dietary sources, including supplements. Average daily vitamin D intake in the population and current dietary reference intake values are often inadequate to maintain optimal vitamin D levels. Virtually every cell in our body has receptors for Vitamin D, meaning that they all require “sufficient” level of Vitamin D for adequate functioning. Vitamin deficiency has been linked to various serious diseases: osteoporosis, multiple sclerosis, cardiovascular diseases, pregnancy complications, diabetes, strokes, autoimmune diseases, infectious diseases, etc.

Read moreVitamin B-2 100mg 100VC
Riboflavin Vitamin B-2, also known as riboflavin, is a member of the B-vitamin family. It occurs naturally in green vegetables, liver, kidneys, wheat germ, milk, eggs, cheese and fish. Riboflavin is an important enzyme cofactor necessary for energy production from carbohydrate, fat, and protein. It is also needed for the regeneration of glutathione, which supports the body’s natural defense mechanisms and detoxification systems.

Read moreVitamin B-6 100mg 100VC
Vitamin B-6 is a cofactor in numerous enzymatic reactions and is required for the metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. It facilitates the conversion of amino acids from one to another as needed, and is necessary for normal synthesis of haemoglobin, as well as for normal function and production of red blood cells. B-6 plays an important role in regulating homocysteine metabolism in the body. Homocysteine, a by-product of the methionine cycle, is known to be destructive to bodily tissues, especially vascular structures. B-6 is also critical for the maintenance of a healthy nervous system.

Read moreVitamin D-3 1000 180SG
Vitamin D3 softgels supply this key vitamin in a highly absorbable liquid softgel form. Vitamin D-3 is normally obtained form the diet or produced by the skin from the ultraviolet energy of the sun. However, it is not abundant in food. As more people avoid sun exposure, vitamin D supplementation becomes even more necessary to ensure that your body receives an adequate supply.
