Molybdenum from molybdenum trioxide 12.3mcg Selenium from selenomethionine Zinc from zinc amino acid chelate mg Multivitamin and mineral supplement to provide daily nutritional support. Adult dosage: Take 2 tablets once a day, preferably with food, or as not replace a balanced diet. This product contains selenium which is toxic in high doses. A daily dose of 150mcg of selenium from dietary supplements should not be exceeded. Not suitable for use by children under 15 years. Two Bottles, One Complete Source The consists of two supplements that when combined provide the optimal daily level of beneficial nutrients. The two supplements are Calcium Complex and Multivitamin & Mineral in either the Men s, s or 50+ formula. The Need Our modern diet of fast food, snacks, and highly processed meals is nutrient poor. We are overweight, but undernourished. Australians and New Zealanders are only consuming half the recommended amount of fruits and vegetables daily. Competitive Solution Traditional multivitamins generally present minerals in an isolated, purified form that can be difficult for the body to absorb. In addition, they may do nothing to hinder free radical production during digestion, which means antioxidant vitamins may be robbed of some of their potency before they are absorbed. The Melaleuca Solution The includes Oligo which assists with maintaining the optimum absorption environment during digestion, so the minerals are more available for absorption. Oligo also protects antioxidant vitamins because it enables the minerals to be absorbed before they generate free radicals and use up the antioxidant vitamins in your supplement. The Melaleuca Value Priced at AU$29.95/NZ$35.95pc for a 30-day supply, the costs just AU$1.00/NZ$1.20 a day Less than the cost of one trip to the vending machine. The 1995 National Nutrition Survey revealed that each day, Australians were only eating half the amount of recommended servings of both fruit and vegetables and needed to increase their intake of cereals and breads, milk products and fish. 1 Approximately two-thirds of New Zealanders aged 15 years and over consumed the recommended three or more servings of vegetables per day, about one-half consumed the recommended two or more servings of fruit per day, Pacific and Asian people were significantly less likely to meet the recommendation for vegetable intake than European/Other and Māori. However, Māori were the least likely to meet the recommended fruit intake level. 2 All things considered, it s difficult if not downright impossible to get the right mix of vitamins and minerals your body needs for optimal health strictly from today s fastfood diet. Are you eating a balanced diet? Few of us eat perfectly day in and day out. We often aren t getting the vitamins and minerals our body needs to run at 100%. Unfortunately, even if you are eating a balanced diet, you still may not be receiving all the nutrients you need. Why? Because today s fruits and vegetables may not contain the nutrient levels they once did that you need to stay feeling healthy, vibrant and able to keep up with life. 6

Not suitable for use by children under 15 years. 0 mg The Diminishing Nutritional Values of Australian Grown Fruit and Vegetables: Comparison between 1948 and 1991 by the CSIRO. 3 Vitamin C Doctors and nutritionists acknowledge this fact. In 1998, The New England Journal of Medicine urged physicians and other health care providers to recommend all adults take a multivitamin daily. 4 In a ground-breaking 2002 article in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), researchers recommended everyone regardless of age or health status take a daily multivitamin. 5 The report says, most people do not consume an optimal amount of all vitamins by diet alone. Pending strong evidence of effectiveness from randomised trials, it appears prudent for all adults to take vitamin supplements. JAMA further recommends multivitamins, rather than individual vitamins, because multivitamins are simpler to take and because a large portion of the population needs supplements of more than one vitamin. The Problem with Traditional Multivitamin & Mineral Supplements Fruits and vegetables are important because they are not only the primary natural source for vitamins and minerals, they also provide those critical nutrients in a form that is easy for the body to use. In fruits and vegetables, minerals are bound to organic compounds like proteins and fibre. Because of this, the minerals remain more soluble during digestion, and they are inhibited from generating excess free radicals. This may not be the case with traditional multivitamin-mineral supplements. Recognising that there are critical gaps in our modern diets, multivitamin and mineral supplements were created, but there are two flaws with traditional multivitamins. The minerals in traditional multivitamins are often not bound to organic compounds, they are isolated. As a result, they tend to crystallise in the intestines, making them difficult for the body to absorb. Isolated minerals may cause an increase of free radicals. The antioxidants in your multivitamin (vitamins A, C, and E) are then forced to neutralise the free radicals, robbing them of some of their potency before they can be absorbed. This is where the comes in. Melaleuca s Answer Oligo Melaleuca s addresses the fundamental problems found in traditional multivitamin and mineral supplements. The includes Oligo to create an improved absorption environment in the intestine for minerals, which reduces their ability to generate as many free radicals. It is the ideal supplement to close the nutritional gap in everyone s diet BROCCOLI 0 mg Magnesium APPLES

A diet deficient in calcium can lead to osteoporosis later in life for men and women. Calcium Complex helps strengthen bones and tissue in growing and mature adults. Adult dosage: Take 3 tablets once a day, preferably with food, or as not replace a balanced diet. Recommended The is to be taken with meals. Multivitamin and Mineral: (Morning) Men: 2 tablets per day : 2 tablets per day 50 : 2 tablets per day Calcium Complex: (Night) Men: 3 tablets per day : 3 tablets per day 50 : 3 tablets per day Improved Mineral Solubility Minerals are soluble (dissolve easily) in an acidic state. Because of this, they dissolve perfectly in the stomach. But as they move into the ph-neutral intestines where nutrient absorption actually takes place they fall out of solution (returning to their crystalline form), making them more difficult for the body to absorb. Our includes Oligo which assists with maintaining the optimum absorption environment during digestion, so the minerals are more available for absorption. Antioxidant Potency Protection As the isolated minerals found in typical multivitamins are digested, they may drastically accelerate the amount of free radicals present. The antioxidants in your multivitamin (like vitamins A, C, and E) are then forced to neutralise the free radicals. As a result, they may be used up in the digestive tract and have much less antioxidant power by the time they are ready to be absorbed. Oligo helps change that. Oligo helps guard the minerals, limiting their ability to generate free radicals. As a result, antioxidants may be protected from premature oxidation and are preserved in the intestines so they can be absorbed into the bloodstream for their true value inside the body. Tailored Just for You With the you get a gender-specific, age-specific choice in multivitamins: Multivitamin & Mineral, for, or 50. Combined with Calcium Complex the is custom-fit to meet your individual nutritional needs. For Men: Adjusted to meet the nutritional demands of men including manganese and other key minerals. For : Nutrition to meet a woman s daily needs including iron and vitamin K1 as well as of biotin, magnesium, and calcium to reduce the risk of osteoporosis. For 50 : Created specifically to meet the changing nutritional needs of those over age 50, this formula includes antioxidants like vitamins E and A as well as minerals that become harder to absorb due to metabolism changes including molybdenum, magnesium, and calcium. Take the Correct Dose Trying to stretch your bottle of vitamins an extra week, skipping days, or dipping into your partners vitamins means you ll take in an inconsistent flow of nutrients which may reduce the effectiveness of your multivitaminmineral supplements.
