Iodine
Iodine is a mineral that is crucial for our body's ability to produce thyroid hormone, which helps control our growth, metabolism, and energy levels. A lack of iodine in the diet is a common problem around the world and can lead to intellectual development issues. Adding iodine to salt (i.e., iodized salt) has helped reduce this problem. Iodine is commonly utilized as a dietary supplement, both in multivitamin preparations and as a standalone ingredient as it is purported to have overall health and wellness benefits, not just in those who are deficient. One such standalone iodine product is 'Iodoral'. Studies have shown iodine supplementation may help improve cognitive function and boost energy levels but more research is needed. It is recommended that you should be under medical supervision if you plan on taking iodine as there may be a risk of certain side effects with high dosages.

Calcium Chelate
Description:Calcium is a vital nutrient found in various foods such as dairy products, certain vegetables, and many fortified items. Over 99% of the body's calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, predominantly as hydroxyapatite. The remaining calcium circulates in the blood, extracellular fluid, muscles, and other tissues, where it is essential for processes like nerve signaling, muscle contraction, vascular activities, glandular secretion, and maintaining cell membrane and capillary permeability. It also plays critical roles in enzyme reactions, respiration, kidney function, and blood clotting, and is involved in neurotransmitter and hormone release, amino acid uptake, vitamin B12 absorption, and gastrin secretion. Calcium balance changes with age: it is positive during periods of growth, stable in adulthood, and tends to become negative in older age. Calcium loss occurs through feces, urine, sweat, and shedding skin cells. In women, reduced estrogen levels decrease calcium absorption and retention, increase bone turnover, and lead to lower bone mass. Calcium supplements come in various forms, including citrate and carbonate, which differ mainly in their calcium content and absorption rates. Calcium citrate is easily absorbed and can be taken without food, making it suitable for older adults or those with low stomach acid. In contrast, calcium carbonate, which contains a higher percentage of calcium, is best absorbed when taken with meals.

- The power of micronutrients
EMPowerplus Q96 is the most researched micronutrient formula in the world and is unlike any other vitamin or mineral supplement on the market, due to its proprietary formulation and technology.
Specifically formulated to provide essential nutritional support to the brain and central nervous system, EMPowerplus Q96 boosts mood stability, mental clarity, and overall brain health in children and adults. Research continues to show that the mind and body thrive when given the nutrients they need.
- The power of the formula comes from using only the highest quality nutrients, the correct dosage of individual ingredients, and the precise combinations of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that interact to enhance potency and effectiveness. The use of cutting-edge nano-chelation technology dramatically increases the bioavailability of micronutrients for maximum uptake in the brain.
Q Sciences is taking a new approach towards living healthy. The science of happiness comes from giving your body and mind the nutrients needed to restore themselves. Once restored, the body and mind can do amazing things.
Backed by $25 million in scientific research.
22 independent clinical trials and medical studies on EMPowerplus Q96 have been conducted at world-renowned universities in four countries, including Harvard Medical School, and published in peer-reviewed journals, with no funding from Q Sciences.
What are micronutrients?
Micronutrients are essential elements required by the body to live; more specifically, microminerals and vitamins. Although the body only requires minuscule amounts of these micronutrients, they support most of our critical biological functions, including antioxidant support, immune health, brain health, and the nervous system. As tiny as the required amounts are, a deficiency can result in severe, even life-threatening illnesses.
Microminerals include iron, cobalt, chromium, copper, iodine, manganese, selenium, and zinc, to name a few.
Vitamins, which are organic compounds required as nutrients in tiny amounts, include vitamins D, A, E, C, K, and B complex.
At a minimum, an average person requires 28 essential microminerals and vitamins to be healthy. Recent studies show that almost 75% of Americans take in less than the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for many micronutrients. Insufficient micronutrient intake has both short-term and long-term implications on our health.
- Few people get the RDA of micronutrients in diet alone, and rarely do they get an ample amount. Studies and research conducted on EMPowerplus Q96 show that even those who may not think they are undernourished most likely are, and can benefit exponentially from a
high-quality, bioavailable micronutrient supplement.
Micronutrients and the brain
One of the most critical functions micronutrients provide is safeguarding and supporting the brain. The following is a brief overview of the basic needs for cognitive performance.
The human brain depends on a constant supply of micronutrients for energy, metabolism of neurons and glial cells, neurotransmitter synthesis and action, nerve impulse propagation, and homocysteine metabolism.
