If you're feeling sluggish after a lazy winter, it may be time to renew yourself as well. Starting a gentle exercise program, cutting back on sweets, and taking a multivitamin and mineral supplement to cover your nutritional bases are some great ways to start. Just remember, not all multivitamins are the same. Here are the most important things to look for in a multi. Take a Vitamin Made from Food, Not Chemicals. When you bite into a fresh strawberry, you get vitamin C, but you also get dozens of other antioxidants called polyphenols, plus additional vitamins and minerals. If instead of eating that ripe berry, you take vitamin C made in a lab, you miss out on all that. Your body has preferences when it comes to nutrition, and it's used to getting nutrients from food. Without their whole-food matrix, isolated synthetic vitamins may not be absorbed as well as natural vitamins and can be upsetting to the stomach. Whole-food multivitamins get around these issues by using a base of fruits, vegetables, and herbs and by including vitamins and minerals from real whole food sources. Your body recognizes whole-food multis as food and therefore digests and absorbs the nutrients they contain easily. Whole Earth & Sea Pure Food Multivitamins from Natural Factors Whole Earth & Sea Pure Food multivitamins by Natural Factors take whole-food vitamins to a new level. Home Grown. The process begins with fresh vegetables, fruits, and herbs grown from heirloom seeds on Factors Farm, the company's own certified organic farm in the pristine Okanagan Valley in British Columbia. The non-GMO crops are cultivated using regenerative agricultural practices and handpicked once they've reached peak ripeness. Plant Forward. The produce is then blended with organic sea vegetables as well as vitamins and minerals, most of which are also sourced from plants. For example, the vitamin A comes from algae, vitamin C from organic amla fruit, vitamin E from sunflower seed oil, and vitamin K2 from natto, while the iodine is derived from kelp, selenium from sprouted garlic, and calcium from organic algae. Raw + Cultured. Next, the entire mixture is raw processed with gentle care to preserve the active constituents. Finally, it's cultured with natural enzymes, probiotics, and prebiotics to optimize its natural vitality. As a result of this food-focused approach to formulation, the tablets are brimming with the nutrition of fresh plants, helping you refresh and reset for spring.
