Frequently Asked Questions
-
These 5 micronutrients are not easy to obtain from a diet alone. Getting a sufficient amount of Vitamin D, K2, Zinc, Magnesium, and Omega-3s for your body can be challenging. Additionally, these 5 ingredients have been extensively studied and showed well-established health benefits.
-
We still favour a 'food-first' approach whenever possible and encourage everyone to eat a healthy, varied diet. Magnesium and Zinc can be found in food sources, but can be more difficult to obtain in sufficient amounts. While we don't cover 100% of the daily requirement for these minerals, our carefully selected amounts are designed to fill common nutrient gaps.
-
We understand that taking multiple capsules can be a hassle, but we had to separate the Essentials into 4 capsules. The Omega-3 needed to be split into two doses to provide an effective amount in a vegan capsule shell. We wanted to ensure proper doses of D3, K2, Zinc, and Magnesium. Separating the Magnesium gives you the flexibility to take it at a different time of the day, such as in the evening for a more relaxing effect.
-
The Essentials were specifically formulated to supplement micronutrients that are commonly lacking in modern diets, even in those considered healthy and varied. While a healthy diet is important, it can be difficult to consistently consume enough of these essential micronutrients. The Essentials provide a convenient way to ensure you are meeting your daily needs.
-
Yes, the Essentials are 100% vegan, featuring plant-based sources of Vitamin D3 and K2. The Omega 3 is sourced from algae oil, encapsulated in bioavailability-enhancing vegan Licaps® with an ideal 2:1 ratio of DHA and EPA (polyunsaturated fatty acids).
-
The optimal time to take the Essentials is with or after a meal, ensuring enhanced absorption of the fat-soluble Vitamins, particularly Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2.
For best results, take all four capsules daily, with the option to take the Magnesium capsule separately in the evening for a soothing, relaxing effect. -
The large white capsule contains Magnesium Bisglycinate, the small white capsule contains Zinc Picolinate, Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2. The two yellow capsules contain Omega 3.
-
The Essentials can be combined with most Vitamins and Minerals.
Good to know about synergies and Interactions with other Vitamins and minerals:.
Calcium & Magnesium: These minerals work together to maintain bone health. Magnesium helps regulate calcium, preventing its excess deposition in soft tissues, thereby reducing the risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular issues.
Good to know about potential interactions:
Calcium & Zinc: High doses of Calcium can inhibit Zinc absorption. It’s advisable to take them at different times if high doses are required.
Iron & Calcium: Calcium can reduce iron absorption, particularly from plant sources. To avoid this, take them at different meals.
Magnesium & Zinc: In high doses, these minerals can inhibit each other’s absorption. Balanced intake, as found in Avea’s Essentials, avoids this issue.
Conclusion:
Avea’s Essentials provide a balanced mix of Vitamins and Minerals that synergistically support health. Understanding these synergies and interactions helps optimise supplementation for the best outcomes. -
