Feel Younger - All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula 60caps

In the article ‘Do we need supplements’ we go into great detail about why we may or may not need supplements, based on many factors including our diet, lifestyle, goals and expectations i.e. are we happy to just get by, or are we trying to optimise.

However, there is at least one exception to this nuance, one supplement that we would contend is beneficial is most cases, and that is a Multivitamin and Mineral Supplement, like Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula with Antioxidant + Immune Support.

Why is it such a good idea for most people to take a formula like this?

Firstly, while a deficiency of any one essential nutrient is quite rare, by a medical standard, having a deficiency of at least one of the many necessary vitamins and minerals is not uncommon.

Why? There are many reasons why you may have a deficiency in a nutrient, and this is covered in detail in the ‘Do we need supplements’ article, but the most common reasons may be:

1. Because you do not eat a varied, balanced diet.

This could be for many reasons: you’re too busy, you find it too expensive or time consuming to prepare, you don’t enjoy healthy foods, or you enjoy unhealthy foods too much, and lastly, you may intentionally be on a restrictive diet, either because many foods disagree with you (e.g. food intolerances) or because you restrict certain food for ethical or religious reasons e.g. a vegetarian or vegan diet is more likely to lead to deficiencies including Vitamin B12, Zinc, Iron and Vitamin K2.

2. If you have digestive issues that affect your ability to absorb nutrients.

A lack of stomach acid may lead to problems absorbing proteins, whereas a lack of bile flow may lead to issues absorbing enough of the fat soluble vitamins. Diarrhea can deplete important minerals, while gut inflammation can reduce absorption of many kinds of important nutrients.

3. Even if you eat a healthy diet, the foods you eat are grown in nutrient depleted soil, or from animals that eat crops from nutrient depleted soil.

Estimates are that soil is 75-90% depleted of nutrients in the last 100 years. How this impacts nutrient content of foods is still an issue of contention and requires more research, but it’s reasonable to assume that if soil is so depleted of nutrients, that this will impact the nutrient content of foods that grow in it to some degree.

4. You have a greater need for nutrients, due to genetic or lifestyle reasons.

For instance, Elwin, the founder of Feel Younger ®, has genetic polymorphisms which cause him to need to consume double the usual recommended amount of the crucial nutrients Biotin, Choline, EPA and DHA.

Lifestyle factors like high chronic stress, or excessive alcohol or stimulant use, for instance, can cause the rapid depletion of nutrients like Thiamine (Vitamin B1) and Magnesium, causing needs to be significantly elevated.

5. Already Deficient?

If you are already deficient in a nutrient, like vitamin B12, it’s common for medical professionals to recommend you take 100 times or even 1000 times the usual recommended amount, to try and replenish your levels, which is an amount you could never get without supplementation.

Even if none of these apply to you, you may still want to consider taking a Multivitamin, like Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula with Antioxidant + Immune Support.

Why? Because even if you’re not deficient in any of the nutrients contained within, you may still benefit from Optimizing your level of these nutrients.

Remember, Recommended amounts are what was discovered clinically to prevent or reverse disease. While the are of what is optimal is less researched and more subjective (optimal is harder to define than disease), anecdotally, many people have reported feeling better when consuming levels of nutrients that are sometimes conceived as optimal, rather than essential. A common example is again, Vitamin B12, which many people feel better on with doses 100+ times the Recommended Daily Amount, even if they are not diagnosed as clinically deficient.

What does a good Multivitamin and Mineral supplement contain?

A good Multivitamin will contain all the essential Vitamins: A, B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B7, B9 and B12, C, D and E

It will also contain the essential minerals Magnesium and Calcium (in an optimal 1:1 ratio), Zinc and Copper (in an optimal 7:1 ratio), Selenium and Manganese (as Amino Acid Chelates) and Chromium and Molybdenum.

Our formula does not contain iron as this is an essential nutrient that it’s easy to consume too much of for some people, so we encourage everyone to test to see if they need it and if so, take it separately

What makes a Great Multivitamin and Mineral Supplement?

As well as containing the essential Vitamins and Minerals listed above, a really great Multivitamin will also:

1. Not require you to take lots of pills. 

If you are already deficient in a nutrient, like vitamin B12, it’s common for medical professionals to recommend you take 100 times or even 1000 times the usual recommended amount, to try and replenish your levels, which is an amount you could never get without supplementation.

2. Be free of fillers, additives, sweeteners and flavorings.

Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula contains none of these, and only contains the smallest amount possible of 3 very common excipients, which are used to turn some of the ingredients, which would otherwise be oils or gels, into powder, so they can all go into one capsule.

3. Contain Powerful, thoroughly researched, Natural Plant Based Antioxidants

In addition to giving you every vitamin and mineral you need, Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula also gives you a powerful dose of 7 of the most powerful plant based antioxidants known to man, each of which has been thoroughly proven to have numerous health benefits ^[1]. We won’t list them all here as it would take up too much space, but encourage you to do your own research on: Green Tea Extract ^[2], Hawthorne Berries ^[3], Cinnamon Bark Extract ^[4], Bilberry Extract ^[5], Grape Seed Extract ^[6], Blackcurrant Extract ^[7] and Pomegranate Extract ^[8].

4. Contain Powerful, thoroughly researched, Natural Plant Based Antioxidants

In this day and age, all of our immune systems could do with some support. The herb Echinacea ^[9], Beta Glucan ^[10], Garlic ^[11] and Spirulina ^[12] are all powerful and have many research studies supporting their effectiveness. Again, we encourage you to do your own research.

In addition to all this, Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula also contains Lutein ^[13], a vision support nutrient, Lycopene ^[14], a powerful anti-inflammatory, and Stinging Nettle ^[15] and Saw Palmetto ^[16], powerful anti-inflammatory and hormone supporting herbs.

Is Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula with Antioxidant + Immune Support the absolute best way to meet your nutritional needs?

Our answer may surprise you: No

Because, the absolute best thing to do is:

1. Seek out a nutritionist who understands everything we teach here at Feel Younger. This will usually cost several hundred dollars per consultation.

2. Get, with their guidance, a test that shows your likely needs for all the important Vitamins and Minerals. These tests, like Genova Diagnostics Nutreval or Spectracell’s Micronutrient Test Panel, will cost around $500, and need to be repeated to get updated recommendations, at least every 6 months, preferably every 3-4 months. They also don’t include every nutrient e.g. neither include the mineral iron.

3. You’ll likely end up with a program that includes substantial dietary changes, as well as many different bottles of supplements to get the exact right amount you need of many different nutrients, without taking anything you don’t need.

The above is the best possible approach, as outlined by Feel Younger’s founder, Elwin Robinson.

However, we are aware that this approach is:

1. Very expensive to most people
2. Quite time consuming
3. Most people find dietary changes very difficult
4. Very complicated to most people
5. Most people don’t like taking many different supplements several times a day.

So, while the above is the best possible approach, we realise it’s not realistic for many people.

Most people would like to meet their nutritional needs with little effort, low cost and without making significant dietary changes.

If that’s you, we Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula with Antioxidant + Immune Support…and it’s exactly what most of the Feel Younger team use themselves, for this reason!

How do you take Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula with Antioxidant + Immune Support?

2 capsules a day, with a meal, with water. Can be spread out over 2 meals, 1 capsule with each meal.

Any cautions?

Feel Younger’s All in One Multivitamin + Mineral Formula with Antioxidant + Immune Support has been specifically formulated, unlike many other common brands, to give a decent amount of the essential nutrients, but NOT an excessive amount of any nutrient, which makes accidentally taking too much of any nutrient much less likely with our Multivitamin than most others, so long as you don’t exceed the recommended serving size, but still…

Always speak to a healthcare professional before making any changes to diet or lifestyle
