Essential, Omega-3 & Probio Set

life's OMEGA is a premium vegan omega-3 supplement derived from algal oil, providing DHA and EPA from the original source. Fish get their omega-3 from algae, so algal oil cuts out the middleman, offering a sustainable, ocean-friendly, and vegan-compatible source of these essential fatty acids.

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin essential for vision, immune function, skin health, and cell differentiation. It exists in two forms: preformed vitamin A (retinol, found in animal products) and provitamin A (beta-carotene, found in colourful fruits and vegetables). Adequate vitamin A supports the body's natural defence systems and the maintenance of healthy skin and mucous membranes.

Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) is often called the "sunshine vitamin" because our bodies produce it when skin is exposed to sunlight. It plays a fundamental role in calcium absorption, bone health, immune function, and mood regulation. For those of us living in Scandinavia and Northern Europe, where sunlight is limited for much of the year, supplementation is widely recommended by Nordic health authorities.

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative damage. It plays an important role in immune function, skin health, and cellular protection. As a key defender of the body's lipid structures, vitamin E works alongside vitamin C to provide comprehensive antioxidant coverage.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant essential for immune function, collagen formation, and the protection of cells from oxidative stress. We use vitamin C derived from acerola cherry, a whole-food source that provides naturally occurring bioflavonoids alongside the vitamin C, which may support better absorption compared to synthetic ascorbic acid.

Vitamin K2 (MK-7) is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in directing calcium to where it is needed (bones and teeth) and away from where it can cause harm (arteries and soft tissues). Often overlooked, K2 works synergistically with vitamin D3 and calcium to support both bone health and cardiovascular wellness.

Thiamine (Vitamin B1) is an essential water-soluble vitamin that plays a fundamental role in energy metabolism and nervous system function. It is the first B vitamin that was discovered, and it helps convert carbohydrates into energy, making it essential for every cell in the body, particularly the brain and heart.

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is an essential water-soluble vitamin that plays a key role in energy production, cellular function, and the metabolism of fats, drugs, and steroids. It acts as a precursor to the coenzymes FAD and FMN, which are involved in numerous metabolic reactions including the electron transport chain that generates cellular energy.

Niacin (Vitamin B3) is an essential water-soluble vitamin that plays a central role in energy metabolism. It is a precursor to NAD and NADP, two coenzymes involved in over 400 enzymatic reactions in the body. Niacin supports energy production, DNA repair, skin health, and nervous system function.

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) is an essential water-soluble vitamin involved in over 100 enzyme reactions in the body. It is particularly important for protein metabolism, neurotransmitter production, immune function, and hormonal balance. B6 plays a central role in producing the neurotransmitters serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, making it key for mood and nervous system health.

Folic acid (Vitamin B9) is essential for cell division, DNA synthesis, and the formation of red blood cells. It is perhaps best known for its critical role during pregnancy in preventing neural tube defects, but its benefits extend throughout life, supporting cognitive health, mood, and cardiovascular wellness through homocysteine metabolism.

Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin) is essential for energy production, nerve health, and red blood cell formation. It plays a vital role in converting food into energy and maintaining healthy neurological function. B12 is also crucial for DNA synthesis and helps prevent megaloblastic anaemia, a condition that can cause fatigue and weakness due to large, improperly formed red blood cells.

Biotin (Vitamin B7) is a water-soluble B vitamin that supports the maintenance of normal hair, skin, and mucous membranes. It plays an important role in macronutrient metabolism, helping the body convert fats, carbohydrates, and proteins into energy. While biotin deficiency is relatively rare in the general population, certain groups may benefit from supplementation.

Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) is an essential water-soluble vitamin found in virtually all foods, which is reflected in its name (from the Greek "pantos" meaning "everywhere"). It is a component of coenzyme A (CoA), one of the most important molecules in metabolism, essential for energy production, hormone synthesis, and the manufacture of fatty acids.

Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body, with approximately 99% stored in bones and teeth. It is essential for bone structure, muscle function, nerve signalling, and blood clotting. Adequate calcium intake, particularly when combined with vitamin D and K2, supports lifelong bone health and helps reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

We use Dicalcium Phosphate as a dual-action source of calcium and phosphorus, two minerals essential for building and maintaining strong bones and teeth.

Iron is an essential mineral that plays a central role in oxygen transport, energy production, and immune function. It is a key component of haemoglobin, the protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from the lungs to every cell in the body. Iron deficiency is one of the most common nutritional deficiencies worldwide, particularly among women of reproductive age.

Magnesium Citrate is magnesium bound to citric acid, one of the most commonly used and cost-effective forms of magnesium supplements. It has good bioavailability and is well-studied. Citrate form is particularly known for supporting digestive regularity alongside the broad benefits of magnesium.

Zinc Citrate is a well-absorbed form of zinc bound to citric acid. It supports immune defence, skin health, hormonal balance, and hair and nail maintenance. Zinc citrate is a practical choice for general zinc supplementation, offering good bioavailability at an accessible price point.

Copper is an essential trace mineral involved in energy production, connective tissue formation, iron metabolism, and nervous system function. It also contributes to normal hair and skin pigmentation. The body needs copper in very small amounts, but its roles are critical, particularly in supporting iron transport, immune function, and antioxidant defence.

We use Manganese Citrate Buffered for its high bioavailability and gentle nature on the digestive system. It is a key mineral for bone formation and metabolic processes.

Selenium is an essential trace mineral with powerful antioxidant properties. It plays a vital role in thyroid health, immune function, and protecting cells from oxidative damage. The thyroid gland contains more selenium per gram of tissue than any other organ in the body, reflecting how important this mineral is for hormonal balance.

We use Chromium Picolinate for its superior bioavailability, that is easily absorbed and utilized by the body to support normal macronutrient metabolism.

We use Sodium Molybdate, a highly bioavailable form of molybdenum that helps your body efficiently utilize this essential mineral.

We use Potassium Iodine, a stable and well-absorbed form of iodine, this is an essential mineral for normal thyroid function and hormone production.
