Three ideas are used in the
design of Alpha Nutrient formulas
The first
idea is that we need to take in about 40 substances to
be healthy and function well. These substances are
nutrients and are available from foods as long we eat
enough of the right foods every day.
The second
idea is that we can eat the 40 nutrients in their pure
form and avoid all the negative effects of eating foods.
Eating pure nutrients also permits good nutrient
absorption when digestive tract function is impaired.
The third
idea is that optimal nutrition requires a carefully
calculated and balanced intake of nutrients. These three
ideas are combined in the design of the Alpha Nutrient
formulas. Forty nutrients are combined to provide
carefully calculated and balanced intake of nutrients.

Alpha Nutrition provides a choice of
nutrient modules so that food can be
replaced, nutrient intake can be
supplemented and balanced in a variety of
ways. Elemental nutrient formulas represent the ultimate reduction of
food, replacing food intake with a chemically defined set of nutrients. These precise
nutrient sets are
formulated by assembling
nutrients into modules
that supply energy,
electrolytes,
antioxidants, phosphate,
vitamins, minerals,
neurotransmitter
substrates and amino
acids as the protein
building blocks. Instead of proteins, free amino acids are provided
in the Alpha Nutrition series. A complete set of the nine essential amino acids is
complemented by 10 of the non-essential amino acids.

Optimal Nutrient Intake

Olympic Athletes Win
Alpha Nutrition
formulas are high quality and are
used in critical applications to provide optimal nutrient intake. There
are no comparable products available of the shelf in the USA and Canada.
The ingredients are all chosen for purity, solubility and low allergenicity.
Take advantage of a generous supply of
information online. Before you order formulas, please read the ingredient lists and
confirm that all ingredients are suitable.
A
well-informed and professional reader with
an interest in the details of
manufacture of individual nutrients should
first consult USP and FCC specifications,
the Merck Index, textbooks of organic
chemistry, biochemistry and pharmacology. In
some instances, manufacturers will supply
detailed information and examples of
certificates of analysis on individual
batches of their products. We do not publish
our detailed formulations and ingredient
specifications since this is confidential
and proprietary information.
