Nicovite
The vitamin specifically formulated for smokers
(Click to Order)
Most people take daily multivitamins for general well being and to
improve overall health. Unfortunately,
for smokers it's not that easy. Standard multivitamins are designed for
the needs of non-smokers. In fact,
standard multivitamins contain ingredients that can actually be harmful
when taken by smokers.
In addition, it is well known that smoking causes stress to the body. Unfortunately standard multivitamins are not formulated to contain additional nutrients for smokers' needs.
Nicovite is unique. Nicovite is formulated with the smoker in mind.
For safety, Nicovite takes out the ingredients that have been shown to be harmful to smokers. For potency, Nicovite is formulated with powerful antioxidants specifically for the needs of smokers.
The ultimate goal is to stop smoking. In the meantime, take the multivitamin made specifically for you, Nicovite.
Give your body the antioxidant potency it deserves, Nicovite.
Are Smokers Different From Non-Smokers?
In a word, yes. It is well documented that
smoking puts the body under significant stress. At
a cellular level, stress is in the form of harmful
oxidants. Oxidants or “free radicals” can
damage cells and lead to numerous diseases
such as cancer, heart disease, and emphysema.
In fact, every puff on a cigarette releases as
many as 100 TRILLION harmful oxidants into the
body.
In order to neutralize these effects, the body relies on substances that can counteract free radicals known as antioxidants. Antioxidants are found in large quantities in fruits and vegetables. Since smoking causes high amounts of oxidative stress, it is agreed that smokers need large amounts of anti-oxidants. Unfortunately people who smoke typically have diets low in fruits and vegetables. In fact, intake of helpful antioxidants is lower in smokers than non-smokers. To make matters worse, smoking also causes vitamin deficiencies giving smokers even less chance to battle free radical damage.*
So unlike non-smokers, smokers nutritionally have several things working against them. First, smoking causes significant oxidative stress on the cells. Second, smoking causes vitamin deficiencies. Lastly, smokers generally have diets low in antioxidant rich fruits and vegetables.
What's Wrong With Standard Multi-Vitamins Like Centrum® or One-A-Day® ?
If you’re a non-smoker, there is nothing wrong with a standard multivitamin. In fact, standard multivitamins are formulated for non-smokers. They base the ingredient formulation on recommended daily allowances for the general population. However if you smoke, not only are they NOT formulated for your specific needs, but they might even be harmful.
Standard multivitamins contain an ingredient called Beta-carotene. Beta-carotene is converted in the body to Vitamin A. In non-smokers Beta-carotene in vitamin supplements has numerous beneficial effects. However if you smoke, Beta-carotene in vitamin supplements has been linked to an increase in lung cancer. It is important for smokers not to take vitamin supplements with Beta-carotene.*
In addition, as discussed previously, smokers have different nutritional demands than non-smokers. There have been numerous nutrients successfully studied in smokers. Standard multivitamins do not contain these nutrients in their ingredients nor should they. Remember, standard multivitamins are made for non-smokers not smokers.
The unique nutritional demands of smoking requires a multivitamin tailored to meet a smoker’s specific needs.
Beta-Carotene
In a landmark six year vitamin supplementation study in smokers, researchers discovered some surprising facts about Beta-carotene. Natural Beta-carotene is a substance in plants that the body converts into Vitamin A. It acts as an antioxidant and an immune system booster. In the study, researchers gave smokers synthetic Beta-carotene, an ingredient found in most multivitamins, to see if smokers could benefit.
Unfortunately, synthetic Beta-carotene actually had a reverse effect. It significantly increased the risk of lung cancer and death when taken by smokers. These findings have significant implications for the millions of smokers who take daily multivitamins.*
