Antioxidants
Innate Response Formulas
Overview
The Innate Response Formulas Antioxidants supplement provides a blend of key antioxidant vitamins and minerals, many of which are at effective doses. The emphasis on whole food nutrients and 'FoodState®' concentrates suggests a focus on bioavailability. However, the use of proprietary blends for 'Phenolics', 'Organic Botanical Blend', 'Immune Blend', and 'Bioactive Enzymes & Proteins' makes it difficult to ascertain the precise efficacy of these components.
The Good
Provides essential antioxidant vitamins (A, C, E) and minerals (Zinc, Selenium) at generally effective doses.
Emphasizes whole food nutrients and 'FoodState®' concentrates for potentially improved bioavailability.
Vitamin C and E are at doses shown to support immune function and act as potent antioxidants.
The Bad
Proprietary blends (Phenolics, Organic Botanical Blend, Immune Blend, Bioactive Enzymes & Proteins) obscure the exact doses and types of many active compounds, making efficacy assessment challenging.
Over-supplementation of Vitamin A (5000 IU in this product) combined with other dietary sources could potentially lead to toxicity, especially for pregnant individuals.
The specific strain of S. Cerevisiae, which is crucial for determining its human health benefits, is not disclosed.
