Select from iron, no iron, vegetarian or no-iron vegetarian formulas
Vitamins and minerals are, precisely, those tiny, trick ingredients that work hard to make our bodies perform a million and one functions at once. Nifty things like, digest food and transform it into energy and blood and hair and teeth and skin and great muscles.
We should strive to get an abundance of vitamins and minerals to serve our body's needs through the good food we eat daily; plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, meat, fish and dairy products. However, it would take a truckload of groceries to satisfy the musclebuilding athlete's daily V/M requirements. We all need a top quality vitamin and mineral supplement, all the time, to prevent shortages and ensure a physical edge.
Super Spectrum is a complete, well-balanced and carefully processed combination of vitamins and minerals prepared for the system in a unique twelve-hour time-release formulation. The patented micro-encapsulation technique assures consistent nutrient absorption for maximum tissue retention and utilization. And the low-temperature processing maintains the molecular integrity of the ingredients.
Mega-dose products with rapid absorption often result in rapid excretion and little tissue uptake. More is not always better.
For most people, this is a two-month supply of vitamin/mineral tablets.
Available with or without iron (the products are otherwise identical),
or in a vegetarian formula, with or without iron. The vegetarian formula contains the same vitamins and minerals with the following substitutions: Lemon grass and Vitamin D-3 concentrate instead of fish liver oil. The following ingredients are omitted because they are non-vegetarian: lipase, pepsin, rutin, liver concentrate, red bone marrow, egg yolk powder; plus alginic acid 3 mg. is added.

Dave here... for over 25 years, Super Spectrum has been my first choice in vitamin/minerals.
About Super Spectrum, the company: it was started in 1970 by the popular health and fitness pioneer Dr. Carlin Venus in cooperation with Dr. Anthony Pascetti, a leading microbiologist responsible for the formulation of "Contac" time-release cold medicine and vitamin and mineral time-release (micro-encapsulation) formulation. Their dedication to purity of ingredients, accuracy in balance and efficiency in nutrient absorption established hallmarks in the early days and stability today; I've been with them since the beginning. The featured ingredient in all Super Spectrum formulas is trust... Dave
