Vita Guard

Free radicals can harm cells, be they young or old. This damage may accumulate and manifest as threats to the body’s well-being later in life. The earlier a person begins consuming a diet rich in antioxidants from whole foods and whole-food supplements, the greater the protection from free-radical damage. Benefits may show up in childhood in the form of a stronger defence system, or they may manifest themselves during adulthood as slowed onset of the effects of ageing. Vita Guard delivers a broad spectrum of whole-food antioxidants to help protect cells and tissues. It’s an investment worth making to maximise your child’s chances for optimal well-being, both now and in the future.

Why Antioxidant Supplements For Children?

• To help provide antioxidant nutrients that protect cells.
• To help protect children’s delicate tissues and organs at a time when the rapid metabolic rate necessary to support tremendous growth and development is also generating free radicals.
• To help support immature immune systems, which in childhood are called upon to respond to some of their greatest challenges.
• To help protect cells from oxidative damage spurred by children’s high levels of physical activity.
• To help counter free radicals generated by sunlight, smog, ozone, pesticides, food additives, cigarette smoke, drugs and other substances to which children are routinely exposed.

Why NeoLife’s Vita Guard?

• Vita Guard provides the most complete antioxidant protection available to defend children’s cells. Vita Guard features both water- and lipid-soluble antioxidants for optimal cellular protection. Flavonoids and vitamin C protect the watery portions of cells while carotenoids and the entire vitamin E family protect their lipid regions. Zinc and selenium are key mineral components of the body’s natural antioxidant enzyme systems.
• Features the flavonoid family of water-soluble antioxidants. Vita Guard is the only children’s chewable tablet to deliver a broad spectrum of flavonoids from naturally occurring whole foods: cranberries, green tea, mixed berries, lemons and oranges.
• Features the carotenoid family of lipid-soluble antioxidants. Vita Guard is the only children’s chewable tablet to deliver broad-spectrum carotenoids from naturally occurring whole foods: carrots, apricots, peaches, strawberries and tomatoes.

Whole food antioxidant families.

- Vitamin A from beta carotene and other whole food carotenoids.

- Entire vitamin E family of mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols.

- Vitamin C, plus flavonoids to support optimal utilisation of the vitamin C.

• Contains selenium to work synergistically with vitamin E.
• Contains zinc, to help maintain immune function.
• Nature’s own sweeteners - fructose and fruit-juice concentrates (grape, orange, apple).
• No sucrose.
• Nature’s own fruit essence flavouring with no artificial colours or preservatives.
• Chewable! Your children can begin to receive antioxidant protection as soon as they are old enough to chew a tablet.
• Unique shape helps differentiate Vita Guard from adult products.
• Tastes great!

Childhood Can Be Hazardous To Your Health

Childhood can be a pretty scary time for both kids and parents. Children face obvious threats, such as a car speeding through an intersection that must be crossed. They also encounter mysterious hazards, such as electrical sockets, paint thinner and pesticides, and invisible villains that challenge their immune systems.

While parents try their best to protect their offspring, certain unalterable ‘facts of childhood’ create both hidden and obvious health hazards for children:

• Children are dynamos, burning enormous amounts of energy to fuel their sky-high metabolisms, maintain their tremendous growth and development and support physical activity levels that would exhaust most adults.

• Children’s poor diets are typically characterised by too much fat, too many highly processed foods, and not enough fruits and vegetables.

• Children are routinely exposed to environmental pollutants such as smog, ozone, cigarette smoke and pesticides.

• Children’s immature immune systems are constantly exposed to challenges in the course of their various activities and explorations.

All of these “facts of childhood” have one thing in common: They increase children’s needs for antioxidant protection. The reason is because these situations all generate destructive free radicals. Antioxidants help protect cells, as well as strengthen the body’s immune system so children are better able to meet the many challenges they face on a daily basis. Kilogram for kilogram, children’s requirements for certain antioxidant nutrients (for instance, vitamins C and E) are greater than those of adults.

What are free radicals and how do they harm cells? Free radicals can form as byproducts of oxidation, a normal chemical reaction in cells that provides energy for physical activity and other life functions. But oxidation can also cause destruction, examples of which can be seen in rusting iron or rancid butter. Free radicals can also be created by physical activity, sunlight, smog, ozone, pesticides, food additives, cigarette smoke, many drugs and other substances to which children are exposed as a matter of course. Just as termites jeopardise the structural integrity of a house, free radicals undermine the cellular architecture upon which good present and future well-being depends. The damage accumulates over time, eventually crippling cells’ abilities to perform their vital functions.

Nature’s Solution To Free-Radical Damage? Antioxidants!

Free-radical damage compromises the quality and well-being of cells in the short term, but eventually it may “snowball”, leading to age-related signs of decline. While manifestation of these signs have long been accepted as inevitable consequences of Father Time, it may be possible to forestall or prevent the cellular damage that precedes them.

Fortunately, Mother Nature has a solution to the free-radical problem. It has packaged antioxidant nutrients in the fruit and vegetables we eat to prevent their spoilage. But they also may forestall our “spoilage”. Antioxidant nutrients such as vitamin C and flavonoids, for instance, protect the watery regions of cells, whereas the vitamin E family and carotenoids defend their fatty regions, particularly the membranes through which cells absorb nutrients and excrete waste. Zinc and selenium are also crucial components of the body’s natural antioxidant enzyme systems. Nature was indeed wise to put these antioxidant nutrients together in the foods we eat, because research suggests that combinations of antioxidants are more effective than larger quantities of any single antioxidant.

How Do Antioxidants Provide Protection? As long as the body has abundant antioxidants, free radicals are held in check. But when the antioxidant defence team becomes overwhelmed, free radicals can initiate destructive reactions. For instance, a typical human cell undergoes 10,000 oxidative “hits” to its DNA every day! Antioxidants may boost the body’s immune system. In a study conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture, for instance, NeoLife’s Carotenoid Complex, many ingredients of which are found in Vita Guard, was shown to bring about a 37% upswing in the immune system of study participants. It is likely that the family of carotenoids in Vita Guard will strengthen children’s defences and help them meet the many challenges of childhood.

How Much Antioxidant Protection Is Optimal? Antioxidants destroy free radicals. In the process, however, the antioxidants themselves are either destroyed or re-activated, so they must constantly be replenished. How much antioxidant protection a person needs depends on metabolic rate, lifestyle, diet and general well-being. Since most children have high metabolisms, active lifestyles, poor diets and constant exposure to challenges, their antioxidant needs can be great.

We’re Not Taking Full Advantage Of Nature's Wonderful Gift

Virtually all of the world’s major health organisations recommend high-produce diets. 5-13 servings of fruit and vegetables are usually recommended each day for optimal well-being.

Vita Guard Fills The Antioxidant Gap And Protects Your Child’s Cells

You wouldn’t depend on buying a lottery ticket to pay for your child’s university education. Similarly, optimal well-being is a lifetime need too important to leave to chance. It requires planning. Just as you’d put money in an education fund to provide for your child’s future, so should you invest in his or her well-being. Oxidative damage can accumulate and cause challenges to well-being later in life. The earlier you provide your child with antioxidants, the greater the protective benefit. Benefits may show up in childhood in the form of a stronger immune system, or they may manifest themselves during adulthood as slowed onset of the effects of ageing.

Good whole foods and good whole-food supplements are an investment worth making to maximise your child’s chances for optimal well-being, both now and in the future.

Another NeoLife “First”

Great-tasting Vita Guard is an unmatched opportunity in children’s nutrition. It provides antioxidant nutrients typically deficient in children’s diets at a time when cellular protection is most crucial. Another NeoLife “first”, Vita Guard provides complete antioxidant protection for children from fruit and vegetable concentrates. Its exclusive blend of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients (plant nutrients) was specially formulated by our Scientific Advisory Board to maximise cellular protection. No other children’s product provides as broad a range of water and lipid-soluble antioxidants, and your child can begin to reap the rewards of antioxidant protection as soon as he or she is old enough to chew a tablet!

Based in Nature, Backed by Science

All NeoLife products are based in nature and backed by science. Following Nature’s blueprints, our Scientific Advisory Board uses cutting-edge research to design truly innovative, high-quality products. Our goal is to bring you vital nutrients in as natural a context as possible. Vita Guard meets that goal because it features:

• Broad-spectrum carotenoids, not just beta-carotene. Beta-carotene does not exist in isolation in nature - it’s part of a huge family with approximately 600 members! But many supplements supply it alone rather than with the other vital members of the carotenoid family. Not Vita Guard! Vita Guard is the only children’s chewable to deliver beta-carotene with the other carotenoid family members that exist in foods, such as alpha-carotene, gamma-carotene, zeta-carotene, lycopene, lutein, zeaxanthin and beta-cryptoxanthin. It’s an excellent source of vitamin A from the human food chain and it offers broader protection of cell membranes.

• The entire vitamin E family, not just alpha-tocopherol. Similarly, Vita Guard contains the entire vitamin E family of tocopherols and tocotrienols as they exist in natural foods, not just the most common member in isolation (alpha-tocopherol). The benefit is more complete protection for cell membranes.

• Broad-spectrum flavonoids. Vita Guard features a broad spectrum of flavonoids, not just the one or two found in other supplements. The result is better protection for the water-soluble portions of cells.

• Whole-food ingredients. You won’t find ingredients as wholesome as those in Vita Guard in any other children’s supplement. Made from whole foods, flavoured with naturally occurring fruit essences and sweetened with fructose and fruit juices, Vita Guard contains ingredients you can feel good about! And it doesn’t contain ingredients that cause concern - sugar and artificial colours, sweeteners and flavours.

Building A Foundation Of Well-Being To Last A Lifetime

If you were going to build your dream house, you’d first create a strong foundation and then assemble the finest building materials available to complete your project. Constructing a foundation of well-being that will last a lifetime requires the same commitment to quality materials. Good whole foods and good wholefood supplements provide the nutritional diversity and density that form the foundation for optimal well-being.

It’s never too early to assure your children receive the building blocks they need to achieve their physical, mental and emotional “bests”. Good nutrition during childhood will help lay the protective groundwork for immediate and future well-being.

Why are children’s nutritional demands exceptional?

• Children produce MORE THAN A BILLION new cells each day and it takes a lot of nutrients to support this extraordinary growth! Children’s body weights double many times over from the time they’re born. For example, 50% of adult weight is attained during puberty alone!

• Young tissues and organ systems need nutrients to develop properly. For instance, children’s immature defence systems are constantly exposed to challenges and many nutrients have been shown to boost their defences. In addition, children’s delicate lungs are often exposed to smog, automobile exhaust fumes, cigarette smoke and other pollutants. Antioxidant nutrients may offer protection from such exposure.

• Childhood is a time when cognitive skills (learning, memory) and personalities are developing. Scientific studies have found associations between levels of certain nutrients and mental performance and mood.

• Children’s metabolic rates are very high - probably the highest they will ever be - and vitamins and minerals are necessary to keep the body running smoothly.

• Children’s levels of physical activity, growth and renewal create enormous energy demands. Vitamins and minerals work together to help the body better absorb and assimilate other nutrients from foods.

Three Requirements for Optimal Cellular Nutrition in Children

1: Feed their cells. The well-being of the trillions of cells in the human body depends on their ability to receive nutrients that fortify the “Chain of Life”: carbohydrates, lipids/sterols, protein, minerals, vitamins and enzymes. As a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, inadequate nutrition can undermine well-being, both now and later.

To create and maintain a strong cellular foundation in childhood, when cellular growth, renewal and rebuilding peaks. Good nutrition is essential. Without it, cell membranes become compromised in their ability to absorb nutrients and excrete wastes. Cells become “sluggish” and unable to perform their number one function: producing energy for life! If your child’s cells are “sickly”, your child isn’t going to be functioning optimally. But if your child’s cells are functioning optimally, so is your child!

2: Renew and rebuild their cells. Due to body growth and overall development, children’s cells undergo renewal and rebuilding more often than those of normal adults. To grow, for instance, the body needs protein, a major cellular building block made up of strings of amino acids. Children’s bodies cannot make 10 of the 22 amino acids required to replace old cells and rebuild damaged ones, so these essential amino acids must be supplied in the diet.

3: Protect their cells. But feeding, renewing and rebuilding cells isn’t enough. Cells also need protection. Since children’s bodies burn a lot of energy, they also produce a lot of free radicals. Free radicals are also generated by sunlight, cigarette smoke, smog, ozone, pesticides, food additives, drugs and several other chemicals to which we and our children are routinely exposed. Antioxidant nutrients can neutralise free radicals. Nutrients such as vitamin C and flavonoids protect the watery regions of cells, whereas those such as the vitamin E family and carotenoids defend their fatty regions, particularly the membranes.

Poor Diets Handicap Children

Many children fail to get the nutrients they need each day, handicapping their abilities to meet enormous challenges for physical activity, growth and cognitive development. Immune systems can also be weakened, leaving children vulnerable to a variety of challenges.

Children may not eat enough whole grains, fruits, vegetables and legumes. These are some of Nature’s richest sources of vitamins, minerals and other key nutrients. Virtually all of the world’s major public health organisations recommend high-produce diets.

Children’s preferences also tend to create dietary shortfalls. “Picky eaters” may avoid healthful foods, such as Brussels sprouts and spinach, while sticking to a narrow range of less healthy favourites, such as sugary cereals and high-fat chips. Processed foods, poor in fibre and essential nutrients, often supplant whole grains in the diet. The result? Children aren’t getting enough of the essential nutrients they need at a time of exceptional growth, activity and learning.

Vita Squares fill the gap

Vita Squares can make a positive difference. Since they contain semi-essential nutrients, such as choline and inositol and our exclusive Tre-en-en® Grain Concentrates, Vita Squares are more than just a multivitamin. The most complete wholefood children’s supplement on the market, NeoLife’s chewable Vita Squares provide the nutrient diversity and density cells need for optimal growth, maintenance and rebuilding. Children love them because they’re delicious, but you’ll love them because:

• Vita Squares deliver the finest naturally occurring source ingredients on the market.

• Naturally occurring sweeteners and flavourings - create a great-tasting supplement without the added sugar, preservatives and artificial colourings found in other children’s chewables.

• Tre-en-en® Grain Concentrates from whole wheat berries, rice bran and soya beans provides whole-grain nutrients that are removed from the processed foods children tend to favour.

• Our vitamin E offers broad-spectrum antioxidant protection from the entire vitamin E family - not just its most well-known member, alpha-tocopherol.

• As science supports important biological roles for zinc, copper, iron, iodine and manganese, these essential minerals are an important part of the formulation.

• Choline and inositol help support important cognitive functions such as learning and memory. In sum, Vita Squares contain key whole-food nutrients to support the Chain of Life and give your children a head start!

Liqui-Vite: Ideal for people who need fluid supplements

Toddlers, children and even some adults find it difficult to swallow capsules or chew tablets. These people need an alternative form of nutritional supplementation. A liquid formulation of vitamins and minerals can be an effective and practical way to support optimal nutrition. Nutrients can be administered by the spoonful or as drops, or they can be stirred into beverages and consumed through a straw or from a glass or toddler’s cup.

The NeoLife Scientific Advisory Board and global Research and Development group took more than three years to develop Liqui-Vite. Its revolutionary formulation provides a wide array of important vitamins and whole-food nutrients known to be critical for healthy growth and development. It is the only liquid supplement on the market to deliver whole-food carotenoids and flavonoids as well as NeoLife’s exclusive Tre-en-en® Grain Concentrates.

Tre-en-en to build healthy cells

NeoLife researchers developed Liqui-Vite to fill the needs of those who prefer or require a liquid delivery system. To support health at the cellular level, they started with NeoLife’s unique and exclusive Tre-en-en® Grain Concentrates to provide the complete lipid and sterol profile of wheat, rice and soya.

Essential lipids and sterols are especially important for growth. Growth requires the rapid production of new cells and the body’s need for the lipid “building blocks” that make up cellular membranes and keep them functioning at their best, is at its lifetime highest. Liqui-Vite’s Tre-en-en® Grain Concentrates provide important lipids and sterols.

12 important vitamins

Each teaspoon of Liqui-Vite can assist in meeting daily micronutrient needs for 12 important vitamins - A, D, E, C, B1, B2, B6 and B12, folic acid, niacin, biotin and pantothenic acid.

Diverse antioxidant protection from carotenoids, flavonoids & more!

High-energy day-to-day growth and development, also create a great need for antioxidant nutrients.

Providing a density and a diversity of essential antioxidants, Liqui-Vite fulfills this need as no other product can. In addition to providing antioxidant protection from the vitamins C and E, Liqui-Vite delivers whole-food carotenoids and flavonoids from citrus fruits and berries. The diverse members of this “antioxidant team” work well together: Carotenoids and vitamin E help protect the lipid regions of cells, especially their membranes, from free-radical damage, while flavonoids and vitamin C help protect the watery portions of cells and body fluids, such as blood.

The source of carotenoids is carrots. Each teaspoon provides 751µg of pro-vitamin A activity from beta-carotene. Other carrot carotenoids include alpha-carotene, lutein and zeaxanthin.

The sources of flavonoids are lemons and elderberries. Flavonoids from these foods include anthocyanins, flavones, flavanones, catechins and a close “relative” ellagic acid. Whole-food sources are an important “NeoLife Difference”.

Support immunity

It is a well-documented scientific fact that a diet low in carotenoids - yellow, orange, red and green pigments in fruits and vegetables - can result in a reduction of immune capacity. This is true throughout life, particularly childhood, when children are faced with some of their most serious immune challenges. Liqui-Vite provides whole-food carotenoids as only NeoLife can. Whole-food sources (carrots) assure a natural diversity and balance of critical carotenoids in the everyday diet.

L-Carnitine To Support Energy Production

Infants and toddlers need enormous amounts of energy to support healthy activity and rapid growth and development. Children’s metabolism depends strongly on the utilisation of fat for energy. L-carnitine, an amino acid, is considered semiessential for infants because of its direct involvement in fat utilisation and cellular energy metabolism. Suboptimal carnitine levels are of great consequence to infant health and vitality. Frequently, the newborn’s body cannot manufacture L-carnitine fast enough to keep up with energy-related demands. The carnitine status of an infant depends on what he or she obtains from the mother during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Infants fed soya-based formulas, which contain little or no carnitine, have abnormally low blood levels of carnitine. Liqui-Vite helps assure dietary abundance of this critical nutrient by delivering natural L-carnitine in every serving.
