Basic Preventive® 4, provided by Douglas
Laboratories®, is a comprehensive, highly concentrated vitamin-mineral-trace
element supplement containing more than 30 essential nutritional ingredients.
Basic Preventive 4 is more than just another multivitamin supplement. It is a
potent antioxidant formula with natural beta-carotene (from D. salina) and
natural vitamin E; a high-potency B-complex supplement; a significant source of
bioavailable calcium and magnesium; and a full-spectrum trace element
supplement. Basic Preventive 4 uses only the purest, most hypoallergenic
ingredients and contains no yeast; corn; wheat; sugar or other sweeteners;
artificial colors, flavors or preservatives. This formula is copper free Studies show that a high percentage of adults and
children in North America and other developed countries eat less than the
minimum daily allowance of 10 or more essential nutrients. Adequate amounts and
proper balance of these nutrients are needed not only for maintaining good
health, but also for the dietary management and prevention of chronic diseases.
Basic Preventive 4 has been carefully developed to contain the right proportions
of vitamins, minerals, and trace elements without danger of toxic build-up and
without side effects. Each ingredient is selected in consideration of its
absorbability, competitive relationship with other nutrients, allergenic
potential, and long-term safety. Beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E and
B-complex vitamins are included in high-potency amounts because of the vital
roles they play in antioxidant protection, energy production and maintenance of
healthy blood cells, nervous system, hormonal balance, and more. Minerals and
trace elements are provided in their safest and most bioavailable forms, such as
amino acid chelates and other scientifically validated and clinically superior
forms. The unique inert cellulose tablet coating consistently disintegrates
rapidly for better nutrient absorption. Beta-carotene is added to the coating to
help preserve nutrient activity and naturally colors each tablet pink. Basic Preventive 4 is ideal for individuals with
vitamin, mineral and trace element deficiencies due to sub-optimal dietary
intake, age, and life style habits. For many individuals, Basic Preventive 4 is
the only daily nutritional supplement and antioxidant formula they need to take. Two tablets three times daily with meals, or as
directed by physician. No adverse effects have been
reported. Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct
light. Keep out of reach of children.. Cranton EM, Frackleton JP: Free radical pathology in
