Spectra Senior by DaVinci Laboratories of Vermont is a natural multivitamin mineral supplement that is rich in antioxidants and contains many nutrients and herbs not found in other senior multiples.

Nutrients such as:

• Coenzyme Q10 - An antioxidant and a naturally occurring cofactor involved in the production of cellular energy. After age 35, most people will develop a Coenzyme Q10 deficiency. Low levels of Coenzyme Q10 in the body have been associated with obesity, cardiovascular insufficiencies, unhealthy gum tissue and impaired immune response.
• Alpha Lipoic Acid - An antioxidant that is both fat and water soluble. It regenerates other antioxidants like Vitamins C and E and Glutathione prolonging their existence in the body.*
• Ginkgo biloba - The active components of Ginkgo biloba leaves are ginkgo flavone glycosides that act as free radical scavengers to protect cell membranes of the brain and other tissues.*
• Bilberry Extract - The active components of bilberries are anthocyanides. In Europe, anthocyanides have been used for their effects on capillary strength, collagen enhancement, improvement in brain function, circulation and some eye disorders.*
• Glutamic Acid - The brain converts glutamic acid to a compound that regulates brain cell acitivity.
• Phosphatidylserine (PS) - Is a phospholipid and found in the highest concentration in brain cells. It supports the brains ability to utilize glucose (the brains main food) and allows brain cells to communicate and metabolize better.*
• Lutein - The macular pigment consists of two carotenoids - Lutein and Zeaxanthin. Supplementing with Lutein may help support those at risk of cataracts by inhibiting free radical damage and increasing the thickness of the macular pigment.*
• Lycopene - A carotenoid extracted from tomatoes. Low serum levels of lycopene in the body have been associated with increased risk of bladder, pancreas and prostate problems and macular degeneration.
• Bioperine - A trademarked nutrient (of Sabinsa Corp.) can increase the uptake of certain nutrients such as Beta-carotene, Vitamin B6 and selenium in the body.
• Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) - An essential fatty acid extracted from the seeds of the evening primrose plant. GLA is necessary for the production of hormone-like substances in the body called prostaglandin E1 (PGE1). Aging, stress and degenerative disorders have all been associated with low levels of PGE1 in the body.*
• Digestive Enzymes - This combination of vegetarian digestive enzymes aids the body in digesting and absorbing food nutrients that are not easily assimilated.*
