About phytochemicals, vitamins, and nutrients
Chemical drugs are designed to overcome one problem - a typical
example is Pfizer's Viagra (dealing with erectile dysfunction).
Phytochemicals on the other hand, which are core nutrients
in many of AllMensNeeds natural supplements, address diseases
in a holistic manner, dealing with the root problems and restoring
balance the body has lost because of the absence of these nutrients.
Phytochemicals have been described (by Ohio State University
Extension Fact Sheet HYG-5050-9) as 'nonnutritive plant chemicals
that contain protective, disease-preventing compounds. The guideline
stating to "choose most of the foods you eat from plant sources"
has been recognized for years as important for good health.
More importantly, recent research has begun describing properties,
specifically chemicals, contained in fruits, vegetables, grains,
legumes, seeds, licorice root, soy, and green tea.
'More than 900 different phytochemicals have been identified
as components of food, and many more phytochemicals continue
to be discovered today. It is estimated that there may be more
than 100 different phytochemicals in just one serving of vegetables.
'Phytochemicals are associated with the prevention and/or treatment
of at least four of the leading causes of death in the United
States -- cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension
. They are involved in many processes including ones that help
prevent cell damage, prevent cancer cell replication, and decrease
cholesterol levels.
'Research has demonstrated the tremendous potential of phytochemicals
in regard to prevention and treatment of disease,' the Ohio
State University Fact sheet concludes.
Phytochmicals plays a key role in the natural supplements presented
by AllMensNeeds. Even so they are only part of the search by
AllMensNeeds for health and sexual well-being solutions for
men. A holistic solution to the body's needs requires a re-balancing
also of vitamins, minerals and yet other types of nutrients
discovered by modern research, such as amino acids, bioflavonoids,
and high-potency enzymes.
The beneficial effects of vitamins and phytochemicals in natural
supplements are strongly reinforced by these other nutrients
which have been shown to benefit the immune system, mental alertness,
life expectancy and sex libido.
Even there the quest is not at an end! Some vitamins, minerals
and other nutrients complement each other -others put together
can create adverse effects.
It is clear then that any multi-nutrient supplement must be
scientifically formulated, to provide maximum benefit -and guard
against combinations which could prove undesirable.
But if the formula is right, then the benefits of any individual
nutrient can be multiplied many many times over.
That has been the objective of the painstaking research carried
out by AllMensNeeds.com to identify the quality of manufacturer,
and of product.
