- Tropical Oasis - Liquid Multiple Vitamin/Mineral - 16 fl. oz. (480 mL) You try to get all the vitamins and minerals you need through a healthy and balanced diet and you know they are important to stay healthy. Unfortunately, busy schedules bring processed foods, and even our fresh foods have diminished nutritional value. Because vitamins and minerals are so essential for many processes in the body, most health professionals recommend a good multiple vitamin and mineral supplement to meet your body's daily requirements. A good multiple vitamin means one that is made with quality, natural ingredients that your body can absorb. Not all multivitamins are created equal! Tropical Oasis Liquid Multiple Vitamin/Mineral pure, glass bottled, highly-absorbable vitamin and mineral supplement is formulated to make sure you do get the vitamins and minerals needed to maintain healthy mind and body. Tropical Oasis Liquid Multiple Vitamin/Mineral Highlights: Bottled in glass to ensure purity Great tasting formula 125 nutrients Protein 23 amino acids 70 colloidal minerals 18 herbal extract 4:1 concentrate 100% of Recommended Daily Intake (RDI) Multiple Vitamin-Mineral Supplements What do they do? Multiple vitamin-mineral (MVM) supplements, sometimes known as multivitamin-mineral supplements, contain a variable number of essential and/or non-essential nutrients. Their primary purpose is to provide a convenient way to take a variety of supplemental nutrients from a single product, in order to prevent vitamin or mineral deficiencies, as well as to achieve higher intakes of nutrients believed to be of benefit above typical dietary levels. Many MVMs contain at least 100% of the Daily Value (DV) or the U.S. Recommended Dietary Allowance (USRDA) of all vitamins that have been assigned these recommended values. Mineral levels may be lower, or in the case of high potency MVMs, most or all mineral levels may also be at 100% of DV or USRDA. Micronutrients that should be included in a complete MVM are vitamin A (or beta-carotene), vitamin B-complex (thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and/or niacinamide, vitamin B6, folic acid (folate), vitamin B12, pantothenic acid, and biotin), vitamin C, vitamin D, and vitamin E, and the minerals calcium, magnesium, zinc, iodine, selenium, copper, manganese, chromium, molybdenum, and possibly iron. Some MVMs also contain vitamin K, but people taking the medication warfarin (Coumadin™) should consult their doctor before taking vitamin K supplements. Phosphorus is another essential dietary mineral, but is so abundant in the diet that it does not need to be included in an MVM formula. The only exception is for elderly people, whose diets tend to be lower in phosphorus. Calcium interferes with phosphorus absorption, so older people who are taking a calcium supplement might benefit from taking additional phosphorus. Potassium is an unusual case, as adequate amounts of potassium cannot, by law, be sold in nonprescription products. Thus potassium, when included in an MVM formula, represents only a trivial amount. MVMs may contain iron, but these should be taken only by people who have been diagnosed as having, or being at high risk of, iron deficiency, or who have a history of frequent iron deficiency. Some nutrients may be beneficial at levels above what is possible to obtain from diet alone, and an MVM formula can provide these levels as well. Nutrients that may be useful to most people in larger amounts include vitamin C, folic acid, and calcium. Vitamin E has long been thought to protect against heart disease beginning at 100 IU per day, but more recent research has cast doubt on the value of vitamin E for heart-disease prevention. Large amounts of vitamin B1, vitamin B2, vitamin B3, and pantothenic acid are often included in MVM formulas. Some people claim to experience improvements in mood, energy, and/or overall well-being when taking higher-than-RDA amounts of B vitamins. While there is not a great deal of scientific research
