FAQs
– July 2009
1.
What are VIT∆MIN CODE RAW ONE for Men and RAW ONE for Women formulas?
A: VIT∆MIN CODE RAW ONE for Men and RAW ONE for Women
are convenient, once daily multivitamin and mineral formulas
specifically designed to meet the unique needs of men and women
on-the-go. RAW ONE formulas contain RAW Food-Created Nutrients providing
targeted delivery of the essential vitamins and minerals you need to
experience extraordinary health.
2. What are RAW Food-Created Nutrients?
A:
The RAW Food-Created Nutrients in Vitamin Code formulas are individually
cultivated with their unique Code Factors intact, enabling targeted
delivery and natural recognition of nutrients by the body. Imagine
growing a plant in the garden, and adding extra vitamin A to the soil to
yield a plant rich in vitamin A. The yeast or bacteria is cultivated in
water and “fed” a vitamin to yield a food-based yeast or probiotic
matrix that is rich in that particular vitamin. Raw Food-Created
Nutrients are grown in both S. cerevisiae (baker’s yeast) and the
probiotic Lactobacillus bulgaricus to provide a broader spectrum of Code
Factors.
3. What is a Code Factor?
A: Code Factors are the known, and yet to be
discovered, synergistic compounds found in food and necessary for proper
nutrient delivery. Providing these Code Factors infuses the essential
elements of whole foods that the body thrives upon.
4. Who can benefit form taking RAW ONE for Men or
RAW ONE for Women?
A: Men and Women on-the-go that may want a RAW vegan
multivitamin supplement but need convenience. Individuals who travel
frequently may also benefit from RAW ONE because they can take one
capsule per day without worrying about dividing doses throughout a busy
day. Additionally Men and Women that have difficulty with supplement
compliance may want to take RAW ONE as it is easier to remember to just
take one per day.
5. What are the key ingredients in RAW ONE for Men
and RAW ONE for Women?
A: RAW ONE for Men and RAW ONE for Women include
vitamins in the form of RAW Food-Created Nutrients and minerals in the
form of RAW Food-Chelated Minerals. They also include RAW Organic Amla
Berry plus live Enzymes and Probiotics.
6. What are RAW Food-Chelated Minerals?
A: Chelation is a naturally occurring process in the
body for transporting minerals across the intestinal wall during
digestion. Common inorganic forms of trace minerals may interact with
lipids, proteins, fiber or other minerals, inhibiting absorption. When
minerals are bound to chelating agents such as amino acids, they become
more stable and are much less reactive in the digestive tract. RAW Food-Chelated
Minerals are minerals that have been bound to raw rice amino acids
making their structure more akin to food, designed to enhance mineral
absorption and improve bioavailability.
7. What is the difference between RAW Food-Chelated
Minerals and other mineral chelates?
A: The primary difference between RAW Food-Chelated
Minerals and regular amino acid chelates is that the amino acids we use
are derived from raw rice protein and not from a synthetic form. This
means they have a full spectrum of naturally occurring amino acids that
are found in proportions similar to what they would be in foods. All 20
amino acids are present and include both branch chain aminos as well as
all the essential aminos, which can’t be produced by the body. Other
amino acid chelated minerals most times only utilize a dipeptide or
tripeptide (two or three amino acids). Scientific data also shows RAW
Food-Chelated Minerals to have better bioavailability and shelf
stability.
8. What is Amla Berry and why is it beneficial?
A: Amla Berry or Indian Gooseberry is a powerful fruit
valued for its high antioxidant content, particularly rich in vitamin C.
It is probably the most concentrated form of Vitamin C found in the
plant kingdom, providing 30 times the amount of Vitamin C found in
oranges. The vitamin C value of Amla increases further when the juice is
extracted from the fruit. This herbal extract has long been utilized in
the traditional medicine of India (Ayurveda) and considered one of the
strongest rejuvenatives that contributes greatly towards health and
longevity.† RAW ONE for Men and RAW ONE for Women deliver 60mg (100% DV)
of vitamin C from RAW Organic Amla Berry.
