Vitamins & Minerals
..............
Vitamins are substances that occur in our nutrition in small amounts. It are components in our nutrition that are, contrary to the feeding substances(carbohydrates, fats and proteins) don’t deliver energy, but are essential for a normal function of our metabolism.
There are two important vitamin groups, the fat soluble and water soluble vitamins. Most water soluble vitamins are converted in vivo ( in an organism) in coenzymes that together with metabolic enzymes perform their biochemical function. Vitamins can also interact directly during metabolism. Some vitamins obtain there final biochemical active form inside the body. Before they do we call them pro-vitamins.
Minerals are important components for our health. Without the help of those minerals most vitamins cannot function inside our body. Minerals(iron) transport oxygen through our bodies.
They also play an import role in growth, recovery and maintenance of body tissue.
They are also involved during muscle contraction, normal functioning of the nervous system and the energy household.
Minerals can be divided into two groups: macro and micro minerals(nutrients). Macro minerals or macro elements are the group of minerals that we need in our daily diet in large amounts. The micro minerals are only needed in much smaller amounts. For a normal function of our body we need almost 20 different minerals.
Because of our modern nutrition and living pattern most people often have small deficiencies of vitamins and (or) minerals.
Maximize offers a wide range of vitamin and mineral supplements to help you fight this.

L.A.B

L.A.B. (lactic acid buffer) is a product based on
3 mineral salts that –when put together- have a lactic acid braking function and improve anaerobic metabolism before exercise. During heavy efforts lactic acid is formed. This is the consequence of lack of oxygen by which occurs an incomplete oxidation of the present energy substances. Lactic acid heaps up in the tissues, the body’s PH decreases and eventually forces you to stop your effort. (You can compare it with a stove that doesn’t get enough oxygen, has an incomplete burning of the firing and hereby forms the toxic CO2.)
Scientific research shows that the body operates best with PH of 7.4 and that a decrease of the PH leads to acidification by which tiredness appears, recuperation is slowed down, muscle injuries occur faster and eventually decreases the level of performance.
