Research continues to point to essential mineral and vitamin deficiencies in our diets. Some of us simply aren’t getting what our bodies need on a daily basis. (1,2) That’s where Vemma comes in. Supplementing your diet with Vemma every day can help you reduce the nutritional gap.
Most of us understand that it is important to have a healthy diet, but knowing and doing something about it are two different things. Our daily lives often get in the way of creating healthy meals, which means our diet may fall short of the daily recommended allowance of some nutrients. To make things more complicated, it may be difficult for the body to process some nutrients from food for a number of reasons. (2)
For example, B12 is typically found in animal-based foods yet with age or certain medical conditions, it becomes difficult to absorb this nutrient from food sources. (3) Also consider Vitamin D, which our body produces with UV light from the sun. The time of year, geographic location, skin tone, and age can interfere with the natural process that occurs in your skin, plus, it also isn’t found in a wide variety of foods. (4)
Vemma provides 12 essential vitamins including 1000 IU of D3 and 15 mcg of B12 plus antioxidant support from the mangosteen, Aloe Vera and green tea. Combined with our plant-sourced mineral blend, Vemma helps support your nutrition even when you have less-than-perfect eating habits.
