How do multivitamins work?

Did you know that a third of the UK are lacking in some form of vitamin or mineral?

Over processed food lacking in those all-important micronutrients have left us undernourished as a society. Supplementation has grown ever more popular as people are waking up to the fact that we struggle to bridge that gap in our diets, but there is a further issue with this;

Not all nutrients can be absorbed by the body without the presence of another nutrient.

For example, black pepper (making up 6.67mg of every scoop of Greens Stack), allows for the absorption of other nutrients such as calcium and iron, and the addition of it makes the other ingredients in Greens Stack more bioavailable to you. The ingredients have been picked due to their ability to work symbiotically with each other, creating a product that is able to be absorbed by your body.

We would like to take a moment of your time to take you through the ingredients of Greens Stack;

We can’t deny that multi-vitamins serve a purpose.

Supplementation is important for our overall health (both mind and body), but if we are not also given the tools in which we allow our body to absorb them, then it is essentially throwing money down a drain…. Literally, because it evacuates your body as a waste product.
