Adequate amounts of iron are needed to support growth, especially during growth spurts or in early infancy. Iron requirements are increased in menstruating, pregnant or lactating women. Iron deficiency is characterized by impaired work capacity, tiredness, apathy, irritability, reduced physical performance and decreased immune function. With advancing age however, iron often accumulates in tissues. Excessive amounts of unbound iron can act as a catalyst of free radical damage and membrane lipid peroxidation, leading to a varity of degenerative, pathologic changes. Men over 30 and post-menopausal women have a tendency to accumulate iron in tissues. Thus, once iron stores have been replenished, iron supplementation should be discontinued.

Adults take 1 tablet daily or as directed.

Amino Acids are the building blocks for all body proteins - structural proteins that build muscle, connective tissue like skin and bones, and functional proteins in the form of thousands of metabolically active enzymes. Amino acids provide the body with the nitrogen that is essential for growth and maintenance of all tissues and structures. In the fasting state blood plasma contains all metabolically important amino acids in characteristic concentration, and each amino acid is present in a defined ratio relative to the others. After a meal, the ratios of plasma amino acids change to reflect amino acid intake, but return to their original levels. Each Amino-Gram Forte tablet contains the following: L-Lysine-148mg; L-Histidine-30mg; L-Arginine-39mg; L-Aspartic-74mg; L-Threonine-41mg; L-Serine-53mg; L-Glutamic-230mg; L-Proline-110mg; L-Alanine-34mg; L-Cystine-9.4mg; L-Valine-71.5mg; L-Methionine-32mg; L-Isoleucine-59mg; L-Tyrosine-16mg; L-Leucine-102.1mg; L-Phenylalanine-22mg; L-Tryptophan-13 mg (naturally occuring); L-Cysteine-10mg; L-Glutamine-15.3mg and Taurine-10.7mg.

Commonly found in grape seeds are polyphenols which are part of a broad class of bioflavonoids. One type of polyphenols are proanthocyanidins. Proanthocyanidins support and enhance the activity of vitamin C and are known for their ability to help support the health of the body's capillary system and connective tissues. They have been shown to bind with collagen fibers, thereby protecting them from premature degradation. This helps maintain the natural elasticity of collagen in skin, joints, arteries, capillaries and other connective tissues so, ultimately, grape seed extract may be used to nutritionally enhance capillary strength, vascular function, PMS problems, bruising, retinopathy and varicose veins. While it cannot reverse varicose veins, it will help relieve the pain and prevent further damage.

Adults take 1-2 capsules daily between meals for 7-10 days, the 1 capsule daily or as directed.

Amino acids are the building blocks for all body proteins - structural proteins that build muscle, connective tissues, bones and other structures. They provide the body with the  nitrogen that is essential for growth and maintenance of all tissues. L-Arginine is a precursor of nitric oxide. Nitric Oxide is important in controlling the degree to which vessels in the body dilate or constrict. L-Arginine can help proper circulation by helping to maintain blood vessel dilation. Research has shown that it  improves stamina, helps in the improvement of blood flow and may also help protect against heart disease through the formation of nitric oxide. L-Arginine is a potent stimulator of insulin, glucagon and growth hormone release, and functions as a representative signal to the endocrine system that dietary protein ingestion has taken place.

Adults take 1 capsule daily or as directed.

Carnitine is a dipeptide made from the amino acids methionine and lysine, 95% of which is stored in the skeletal and heart muscles. The central nervous system cannot function without amino acids which act as neurotransmitters. L-Carnitine helps transfer fatty acids across the mitochondria where it is utilized as a source of energy for muscular activity. It is biosynthesized in the liver of humans and is found predominantly in meat and animal products, like red meats, fish, poultry and milk. Fruits, vegetables and grains contain NO carnitine. Carnitine also has the well-documented ability to increase blood flow both at rest and during exercise.

Adults take 1 capsule daily or as directed.

Vitamin B-12 may help prevent anemia, counteract fatigue, reverse neurological symptoms such as tingling hands or feet, memory loss, unsteady gait and muscle weakness. Along with Vitamin B-6 and Folic Acid, adequate levels of B-12 are required to maintain normal plasma homocysteine levels. Elevated levels may be an independent risk factor for developing cardiovascular disease. Folic Acid may help prevent certain cancers, fight birth defects, lower risk of cardiovascular disease and ward off anemia. Almost 40% of the population is suggested to have "low normal" plasma B-12 levels. Strict vegetarians, the elderly and HIV/AIDS patients are often at risk for Vitamin B-12 deficiency, either due to low dietary intake or impaired absorption. In the elderly, hypo- or achlorhydria maintains the binding of the vitamin with dietary proteins, leading to malabsorption. Deficiency can lead to CNS impairment, including cognition.

Adults take 1 tablet daily or as directed, letting the tablet dissolve in the mouth.
