Vitamin E: Neutralizes or reduces free radicals, protecting molecular and cellular components, and preventing free radicals from oxygenating cholesterol, thus reducing the chances of stroke or heart disease

Vitamin K: Plays a key role in wound healing, blood clotting, and bone growth

Calcium: Critical in building and maintaining healthy bones and teeth and proper heart, nerve, and muscle functioning and may help reduce the risk of heart disease

Copper: Helps to maintain healthy bones; proper functioning of nerves, blood vessels, and the immune system; the formation of red blood cells; and proper iron absorption

Fiber-rich phosphorus: Important in managing the body’s energy use and storage, filtering and removing waste from the kidneys, and promoting nerve conduction

Folate: Belongs to the B vitamins and is crucial in the formation of red blood cells, proper cellular growth and function, and reduced risk of brain and congenital spinal disabilities during pregnancy

Iron: Helps produce the oxygen-carrying component (hemoglobin) in red blood cells, enhances the body’s energy use, and strengthens the immune system.

Magnesium: Crucial in numerous biochemical reactions in the body, regulating blood pressure, supporting the immune system, and helping with muscle and nerve functioning, reducing the possibility of kidney stones

Manganese: Important for bone and connective tissue development, blood sugar regulation, and normal brain and nerve function

Potassium: Needed for proper cellular functioning, regulating the heartbeat, synthesizing protein, regulating muscle and nerve functioning, and metabolizing carbohydrate
