The essentials for optimal health and longevity are proper nutrition, exercise and hormone balance. In the United States, millions of men suffer from vitamin deficiencies, and only five percent of men seek treatment for those deficiencies. After the age of 30, men have a decrease in testosterone production. Low levels of testosterone may also be attributed to diabetes, obesity and excessive alcohol consumption.

Being consistent with good health habits is the key to seeing results. Unfortunately, we are better at being consistent when it comes to doing things that are destructive to our health: More Americans are overweight and obese than ever before, and more people die daily from degenerative disease.

Daily multivitamins offer the best way to stay consistently healthy, but it’s important to consider quality when choosing a multivitamin. Many over-the-counter supplements are poorly manufactured, diluted, or composed of fillers, inactive ingredients that have no therapeutic value. Poor-quality products negate the benefits of taking supplements. Some of the important nutrients to look for in a Total Health Pack of supplements are the following:

DHEA —A hormone secreted by the adrenal glands, which serves as a precursor to testosterone. The use of DHEA for depression and weight loss management has been highly successful. DHEA may also increase energy, improve exercise capacity and increase libido.

Vitamin B6—Essential in the formation of neurotransmitters, dopamine and serotonin. These neurotransmitters play a key role in regulating mood.

Chromium— Essential for sperm production. Studies have shown that chromium deficiency significantly lowers sperm count. In addition to chromium’s effect on reproduction, it also plays a critical role in sensitizing insulin, leading to normalization of blood sugar and decreased risk of developing diabetes.

These nutrients and other nutritional support can help energize your life.
