C.F.S. Support Formula™ provided by Douglas
Laboratories, is a synergistic and comprehensive combination of vitamins,
minerals, herbals, and other nutrients, carefully formulated and specifically
designed to support and boost the function of the body’s defenses against the
stresses imposed by fatigue. Studies show that a high percentage of adults 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 of the body’s structure as well as the optimum
functioning of its various systems, including the hormonal and neuromuscular
systems. The C.F.S. Support Formula™ has been carefully developed to contain the
right proportions of vitamins, minerals, trace elements, and other nutrients
without danger of toxic build-up or other side effects. Each ingredient is
selected in consideration of its absorbability, competitive relationship with
other nutrients, allergenic potential, and long-term safety. Certain nutrients
such as betacarotene, 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 the maintenance of healthy blood cells, the
nervous system, hormonal balance, and more. Minerals and trace elements are
provided in their safest and most bioavailable forms. C.F.S. Support Formula™
contains not only the base formula of Douglas Laboratories' Ultra-Specific
Nutrition 2000 Series™ that offers intensive support for the healthy functioning
of the body in general, but also a blend of herbs and additional nutrients
specifically formulated to offer additional fortification of the body’s defenses
against the stresses imposed by fatigue. Research suggests that immune enhancing
herbs, such as Echinacea, Shiitake mushroom, and Astragalus, as well as those
that support adrenal function, such as licorice, may support the body’s immune
function that can often be compromised when fatigued. Chamomile may help to
reduce the mental stress experienced during periods of decreased immune function C.F.S. Support Formula™ tablets may be a useful
dietary supplement for those who wish to boost their body’s defenses against the
stresses imposed by fatigue. Adults take 4 tablets 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. Heim C, Ehlert U, Hellhammer DH. The potential role of
