Anti-Oxidants
Research has shown that Anti-Oxidants inhibit and control free radical damage and oxidation of cellular tissue. Free radicals are harmful molecules produced in the body as a natural consequence of metabolism and environmental sources eg. stress, ageing, smoking, ill health, exposure to pollution etc. Vega has formulated a powerful army of anti-oxidants, including vitamins A, C, E and selenium and herbs (boswellia, bilberry, grape seed and tumeric). These nutrients protect the body against oxidation and 'free radical' damage, their protective action helping to strengthen the body's natural immune system.

Minerals
The body is incapable of manufacturing minerals on its own, and therefore minerals need to be obtained from dietary sources or supplementation. Virtually none of the nutrients such as anti-oxidents, fibre and proteins can assert their benefits without the assistance of one or more key minerals. They are involved in regulation and maintenance of water and electrolyte balance, skeletal construction, and nerve and muscle function. Vega minerals are formulated in the best chelate form to achieve maximum absorption in the body and nutritionally balanced to provide correct elemental values for maximum utilisation and benefit.
