Benefits of Multivitamins

Multi vitamins are supplements that contains different vitamins and minerals. They may also
contain other ingredients like herbs, amino acids and fatty acids, although the amount and
numbers of nutrients can vary. Multi vitamins are the most commonly used supplements in the
world today and their popularity has increased 10 fold in the past few decades.


Taking Multivitamins can do great things for your health and overall well being. They can
compliment the nutrients you get from food and bring you a step closer to your health and
wellness goals. The human body needs nutrients for reproduction, maintenance growth and
regulation of bodily processes. Many Multivitamins produce enzymes and hormones that boost
immunity and keep the nerves and organs functioning properly.

Here at Panacea we are big promoters of Multivitamins and we would like to share the benefits of
taking Multivitamins with our readers:

Supports eye health: recent studies have shown multivitamins containing a combination of
vitamins, lutein and zeaxanthin can reduce the risk of macular degeneration.
Boosts immunity: Vitamin C is an antioxidant known for strengthening the immune system.
Vitamins D and E are also known to boost immunity.
Healthy ageing: as our age increases it is harder for the human body to absorb nutrients and
medications, further more medications deplete our body of further essentials, taking
multivitamins can reverse the trend and offset these deficiencies.
Healthy skin: Vitamins A, C and E are known to have a good dermatological effect.
Reduces Cancer risk: Many studies have shown by taking daily multivitamins taken for a period
of time reduces the risk of cancer.
Keeps body in working order: Vitamins work hard to keep the body functioning properly and
helps drive the essential processes that are required daily.
Keeps your bones strong: Calcium is essential for bone health but not many people know that
vitamin D is essential for calcium to complete its job.

Viridian Vegan EPA and DHA

Great for baby, great for me

Catalina, our Edgware Store Manager loves Viridian Vegan EPA and DHA. She says “It provides Omega 3 fatty acids from sustainably-grown marine algae, European grown Chia seed oil to supply the full spectrum of omega 3, 6 and 9, and also has natural orange oil for flavour. Because I still am breastfeeding, my baby needs high DHA for brain development and this is a very good alternative to Fish oil. The Viridian EPA and DHA is easy to use as it is in liquid form.”

Higher intakes of Omega 3 oils are known to reduce inflammation and help with brain function. I am also working and studying and I have seen improvements in memory and concentration since taking this supplement. I also know that a higher DHA intake in a baby’s diet helps with better brain development and function, as well as special cognitive and visual function. With this supplement we all benefit.

Each 1ml serving typically provides:
EPA (Eicosapentaenoic acid) 75mg
DHA (Docosahexaenoic acid) 150mg
ALA (Alpha linolenic acid) 222mg
Omega 6 (Linoleic acid) 89mg
Omega 9 (Oleic Acid) 29mg
