Super Supplements - Just How Super Are They?

The market's elite multi ingredient nutritional health supplements like to promote themselves as types of super supplements.

They cost a lot more than the cheap supermarket multivitamins and promise to power-up all areas of your health.

If you're a health conscious person who likes to take a preventative health-care approach by supporting your health and wellness with an upmarket super supplement....

I Salute You!

You're clearly a savvy health-conscious consumer who acknowledges the reality of trying to eat a nutritionally balanced diet every day with the right amount of fresh vegetables and fruits, while avoiding processed and junk foods, trans fats, excessive amounts of processed sugar and so on.

You know it's nearly impossible to 'get it right' day in, day out or perhaps you just don't want to get it right every single day hence your decision to use nutritional supplements.

BUT........

Just how super is your supplement really?

Is it all it claims to be?

Are you WASTING your money?

I'm sure you'd really love know the TRUE answers to those questions!

In fact there are 9 CRITICAL DETAILS which you need to check on to be able to get those answers!

In this article I'll concentrate on just three of them and these three all by themselves will give you a VERY GOOD idea as to just how super your supplement is!

Of course, at the end I'll give you a link to a page that reveals all 9 and how to use them to evaluate the true quality and effectiveness of any multi ingredient health supplement.

Super Supplements Need Super Ingredients! 

Since almost all nutritional health supplements are made to a price, supplement formulators have their hands tied when it comes to including all the best ingredients which they know should be there.

And if the profit bottom line allows them to include some of the key ingredients, they're usually of lower potency, low dose amount and in less expensive molecular forms - meaning lower levels of bioavailability (absorption).

You probably thinking right about now "What are the names of these key ingredients".

Well, there's quiet a number of them but if you'd like to know the 'crème of the crop' ones that absolutely must be there, here they are:

  • L-Glutathione ( 'Reduced'low molecular form ONLY )


  • L-Carnosine


  • Bilberry( not less than 25% potency )


  • Polysaccharides


  • Resveratrol ('Trans' form ONLY, high potency = 40% )


  • Turmeric (high potency = 90%+ )


  • Zeaxanthin (at least 5mg)


  • Tocotrienols (to complete vitamin E family)


  • Chrysin ( For Men's formula's - not less than 90% potency )


These are VERY EXPENSIVE INGREDIENTS for manufacturers to include!

The marketing and distribution models which most of the leading 'super supplement' companies use means they simply cannot afford to include most (let alone a few) of these super ingredients and at the high potencies I've listed.



Super Supplements And Ingredient Dose Amounts 

Of course supplement consumers have little to no idea about what represents a good (aka effective) potency and dose amount for a given ingredient nor what biological form is the best (perhaps with the exception of vitamins and minerals where safe upper levels amounts have been clinically established and very well documented).

Supplement manufacturers know all too well that their customers have limited knowledge about these issues and that's how they manage to palm off their product(s) as a super supplement when in reality they're nowhere near as good as their marketing claims!

It's time for you to know how to draw out the hidden weaknesses in nutritional vitamin supplements!

So, for starters use this link to access some science-based standards so you can check-up on the dose amounts of some important ingredients.

In order for the very best multi-ingredient vitamin supplements to be genuine super products, they MUST target ALL your key organs and body systems and use the MOST EFFECTIVE ingredients in doing this.

Super Supplements And Contract Manufacturing 

Manufacturing professional grade nutritional health supplements is a complex and skilled task with many steps.

Any technical oversights in ANY ONE of those steps means supplement quality starts PLUMMETING DOWN-HILL!

So, you should avoid supplements which have been put together by contract manufacturers on behalf of a supplement company!

It's RARE to find a real super supplement produced by a contract manufacturer!

"Why" you ask?

Because supplement quality is based on the manufacturer testing each and every raw ingredient INDEPENDENTLY to ensure it is in compliance with an ingredient's CERTIFICATE OF ANALYSIS (COA).

This creates SIGNIFICANT additional expense!

On top of this, complex and costly manufacturing protocols must be adopted to make absolutely sure that the finished supplement has the precise dose amount for EVERY INGREDIENT as per the label. (Something that average supplements often fail to achieve!)

The reality is that the incentive is simply not there for most contract manufacturers to do this as they are producing for a third party and therefore are in a VERY COMPETITIVE BIDDING SITUATION.

The HIGHEST QUALITY supplements are produced by supplement companies who manufacture their own products and control every step in the manufacturing process!
