Vegan DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) is a plant-derived molecule used by our

bodies for healthy brain development from pregnancy to infancy and into

adulthood. In terms of use in our bodies, DHA represents 20% of the fats in

our brains. Hence its supplementation can be extremely helpful in supporting

neurological function.

Our formula is designed to provide a high concentration of DHA: 250mg per

capsule as well as 170mg of EPA.

Our DHA is ethically sourced, plant-based, and leaves consumers with no fishy

aftertaste compared to the animal-based alternatives. Our DHA is sourced

from the schizophytum species of microscopic algae.

When using an algal source, there is effectively zero risk of heavy metal

contamination. This is due to the fact that fish are subject to bioaccumulation

of heavy metals as you ascend in the food chain. Hence the larger the fish

used in fish oil the higher the risk of contamination.

The current body of evidence has suggested the following as potential roles

for DHA supplementation*:

Reducing the effects of cognitive decline

Improving heart health, in particular, elevating serum levels of HDL

(healthy) cholesterol

Reducing subjective symptoms of depression

Reducing symptoms of ADHD (attention deficit and hyperactivity

disorder) in children

Improving a child’s intellectual parameters as a result of pre-natal

supplementation

Cautions: For Adults Only, Consult Physician before use, especially if you are

pregnant or breast feeding. DHA can lower blood pressure may interact with

blood pressure medications. If you have high blood pressure, or are taking

these medications, please check with your healthcare provider before taking

DHA

Storage instructions: Protect from heat, and moisture for optimal

effectiveness.

Vitamin D2 (Ergocalciferol) is the plant-derived form of Vitamin D, and is used

by the body for the development and maintenance of healthy bones and teeth.

Vitamin D is a hormone which acts by increasing intestinal absorption of calcium

and phosphorus. In addition, Vitamin D sufficiency is necessary for the

maintenance of a balanced immune system and mood in healthy individuals.

Historically, deficiencies in Vitamin D have caused problematic illnesses such as

rickets and osteomalacia. With the advent of nutritional technology, Vitamin D2

has been used in the fortification of foodstuffs to reduce incidence of deficiency

for decades. This very stable form of Vitamin D is entirely plant-based and

provides today, a vegan alternative to the synthetic and animal-derived Vitamin

D3 supplements out there.

In the supplement market, the majority of products available to consumers are

in the form of cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). Vitamin D2 is entirely plant-based,

whereas Vitamin D3 must be derived from animal products and in particular

cheese, meat, fish or composite organisms like lichen.

The current body of evidence suggests a role for Vitamin D2 in the following

therapeutic uses*:

- Reduction of symptoms of psoriasis

- Providing Nutritional Sufficiency. According recent research, there

exists no distinguishable difference between supplementation with D3

or D2 in maintaining nutritional sufficiency: A 2019 study has come to

the conclusion that “no significant differences were found with D3 vs

D2 in insufficient individuals” (see Full References in Benemax

Research Guide)

- Improving immunity and mood: Vitamin D2 supplementation has also

been associated with improvements of mood and immunity in

individuals who have deficiencies (specifically depression and immune

markers).

Conjugated Linolenic Acid (CLA) is a naturally occurring fatty acid which can be

derived from either animal or plant sources. When CLA is a part of a healthy diet

and exercise regime, it has the ability to modify fat metabolism and to make

improvements in muscle mass deposition and fat composition in the body.

In order to maximize results for this supplement we strongly suggest that if the

goal is weight loss/body recomposition:

It is important to be consuming a diet that is rich in healthy proteins,

vegetables, fruits and the absence of processed foods and refined

sugars.

It is important to be engaged in a workout plan that burns calories

consistently as well as benefits conditioning and builds healthy habits.

Our CLA formula contains elevated levels of Conjugated Linoleic Acid (1000mg

per capsule)

This represents a marked increase over our competitors who on

average produce CLA supplements which contain 800mg per capsule.

With regards to the use of CLA as a workout product, our CLA is NPN approved

and is guaranteed to contain no additives, no stimulants or any hidden

ingredients as can be found in many sports supplements. Specifically, our CLA

contains no added sugar, no artificial colors/flavors or any stimulants.

Supplementation of CLA according to recent clinical evidence has also been

associated with*:

Reducing risk of heart disease

Anti-obesity properties in patients with metabolic syndrome

Caution: For Adults Only, Consult Physician before use especially if you are pregnant, breast feeding, obese, suffer from high blood pressure, high cholesterol or are attempting to lose weight.

Evening Primrose Oil is an oil derived from the plant Oenothera biennis, a

wildflower native to Canada and the United States. This cold-pressed oil contains

several essential fatty acids, useful for the body including a significant amount of

GLA (gamma linolenic acid). This compound (GLA) is similarly found in our

Borage oil supplement and has great effects in the maintenance of healthy skin.

Gamma Linolenic Acid specifically has the effect of reducing inflammatory

markers throughout the body, an important aspect of maintaining a healthy

immune response. This supportive role for inflammatory regulation is

particularly manifested on the skin and results in evening primrose oil as a useful

supplement in the maintenance of healthy skin.

Beyond the presence of GLA alone, the research indicates that Evening Primrose

Oil may offer other whole-body functions including*:

Symptom reduction in Pre-Menstrual Syndrome

Management of subjective symptoms of menopause

The maintenance of skin integrity as well as potentially reducing

symptoms of inflammatory skin conditions such as eczema

Increasing moisture retention and oil composition of the skin

In addition to Evening Primrose Oil, each one of our capsules also contains

between 17%-33% of the average Adult’s Vitamin E needs depending on dosage

taken per day.

In order to assure the best effects for skin health, we have also gone through

the steps necessary to ensure there are ZERO added ingredients beyond those

mentioned above, simply Evening Primrose Oil, Vitamin E and the Softgel .

Caution: For Adults Only, Consult Physician before use, especially if you are pregnant or breast feeding. Evening Primrose Oil may increase bleeding time, have blood thinning effects and interact with medications and supplements which act similarly.

Natural Vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) is an essential vitamin for the body’s

normal function. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble molecule which is a known

antioxidant. This anti-oxidant effect allows vitamin E to scavenge harmful free-

radical compounds and reduce their aging effects on the body.

Natural Vitamin E, as opposed to its synthetic alternatives, is the less commonly

produced, yet superior form of Vitamin E available on the market.

With regards to sourcing and the biochemical composition of Natural Vitamin E:

some advantages of natural vitamin E (d-alpha tocopherol) as opposed to

petroleum-derived synthetic Vitamin E (dl-alpha tocopherol) include:

The natural chemical structure is the ONLY form that has been shown to

prevent vitamin E deficiency-related ataxia

Other forms of Vitamin E are petroleum (crude-oil) based

Synthetic Vitamin E is also less bioavailable than synthetic vitamin E

and is excreted through the kidneys higher rates than its natural

counterpart.

Our Vitamin E is also considered a high-potency formula which provides

1787% of the RDI (reference dietary intake) of Vitamin E.

With regards to clinical applications, the current body of evidence suggests a

role of Natural Vitamin E*:

In the maintenance of healthy skin

As a general anti-inflammatory

As an antioxidant.

In the maintenance of healthy skin and reducing the appearance of

wrinkles

Coenzyme Q10 is a crucial antioxidant molecule in the human cell. Coenzyme

Q10 is a key component of the Electron Transport Chain (ETC) in the

mitochondria. The mitochondria are the subcellular structures that are

instrumental in the production of ATP (energy). Without coenzyme Q10 our

cells are unable to produce energy for tissues. The cells of our body which are

most vulnerable to these deficiencies are those with the highest concentration

of mitochondria, namely the heart and muscles.

Originally discovered in pig skin and animal products, these have been the

source for the majority of CoQ10 supplements on the market. This is due to the

fact that these animal byproducts are readily available and inexpensive.

There is sufficient evidence to suggest that the form of CoQ10 found in plants

has superior absorption as well as bioavailability when compared to animal

sources. The naturally occurring form of CoQ10 is called ubiquinone and is

converted by the body easily into ubiquinol (the active form of CoQ10).

The use of CoQ10 has been long-discussed in medical research and some

important potential uses of Coenzyme Q10 include*:

Improving heart health and contractile strength

Improving heart function and altering cholesterol levels.

Symptom management of fibromyalgia

Prevention of migraines

Caution: For Adults Only, Consult Physician before use especially if you are pregnant, breast feeding or taking blood thinners. If your migraine frequency increases and associated nausea and vomiting continue consult your physician Keep Out of Reach of Children Storage instructions: Protect from heat, and moisture for optimal
