Good nutrition is especially important during the transition into young adulthood. However, young adults’ busy lifestyles almost inevitably lead to irregular eating habits—missing meals and binging on junk food. The fast food that they love to eat tends to be high in calories, fat, and sodium, but low in fibre, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.
With their active lifestyles, young adults need a balanced nutritional plan with advanced levels of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to achieve and maintain optimal health. Body Rox™ is specially formulated to help meet the nutritional needs of young adults. When combined with balanced meals, Body Rox helps provide essential nutrients needed during young adulthood, setting the stage for lifelong health.
An important—and sometimes primary—function of certain vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin E and vitamin C, is to protect cells from free-radical damage. The body produces antioxidants to counteract this damage, but today’s environmental pollutants can make it more difficult for the active body to handle. This situation can be compounded for young athletes whose increased use of oxygen can further increase oxidative stress. Body Rox provides a comprehensive combination of antioxidants that help young bodies maintain ideal health, including Olivol™, rutin, quercetin, hesperidin, grape-seed extract, green-tea extract, turmeric extract, lutein, and lycopene.
Body Rox contains balanced amounts of essential vitamins and co-factors that young people need: provitamin A from beta carotene is important for vision and healthy skin. Vitamin B, in advanced amounts, meets the extra demands of growth, energy metabolism, and muscle tissue development. Vitamin D is essential for uptake and utilization of calcium. Additional vitamin A and C are often necessary to compensate for erratic eating patterns.
Body Rox contains a balance of highly bioavailable essential minerals that play key roles in maintaining optimal health. For example, zinc is important in supporting a healthy immune system. Calcium assimilation during the developing years is essential for bone health later in life. Body Rox also includes vanadium and silicon.
Usana Body Rox™ is one of the few formulas on the market specifically formulated for young adults.
