SP Complete 8 Reconnect, Refresh, Rejuvenate
Reconnect, Refresh, Rejuvenate Years of epidemiological and clinical research have revealed that an alarming number of adults and children are eating too much and exercising too little. In most advanced countries, the rising numbers on scales are linked to all kinds of health problems. Much like an overloaded car, our bodies become overworked under the increasing weight. The excess weight stresses the skeletal system and many of the different organs and organ systems. While many Americans have a wide variety of foods to choose from, refined foods, soft drinks, and sugar-laden treats often outnumber the fresh fruits and vegetables we consume. We eat at fastfood restaurants and even when we choose a healthier entrée, it s often twice the size portion we require to maintain a healthy weight. Eating a good, well-balanced diet in moderate portions, drinking plenty of water, and getting regular exercise are the best ways to maintain a healthy weight and function properly. SP Complete is a powdered nutritional supplement that can be mixed with water to make a shake that contains essential macro- and micronutrients. SP Complete is a healthy complement to any diet and exercise regimen.* Whole Food Supplements

They supply energy and essential nutrients for proper growth, maintenance, and activity. Macronutrients consist of carbohydrates, fats (plus essential fatty acids), proteins, minerals, and water. Micronutrients include vitamins and trace minerals. These nutrients, needed in minute amounts, serve important functions that involve proper protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and support the development and maintenance of cardiovascular and skeletal integrity. Synergistic co-factors relate to the specific nutrient s strength and efficiency. Nutrients in whole foods, along with other compounds and substances in the particular food source, are stronger and more efficient when left in their natural state than when they are extracted. In other words, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.* Vitamins A, B, C, E, and P complex Vitamin A is an antioxidant that strengthens the immune system, promotes gastrointestinal health, and helps support healthy eyes. Vitamin B helps maintain nervous system health and supports muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract. B-complex is also important for healthy skin, hair, and eyes. Vitamin C is a strong antioxidant that boosts the immune system and supports healthy tissue. Vitamin E helps support tissue and works synergistically with vitamin C to provide optimal antioxidant protection. Vitamin P complex contains rutin and other bioflavonoids. The vitamin P complex contains compounds that help strengthen capillaries and support capillary wall permeability.* *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food & Drug Administration.
