Health consciousness is rapidly growing on a global level, especially within the Muslim population. Our signature product “Essentials” was designed help you to achieve a balanced intake of the vitamins and minerals your body needs along with additional ingredients that enhance stamina and vitality.
You’ll also notice that "Essentials" only provides servings that are higher than the recommended daily allowance for Vitamin D (lack of consistent daylight exposure)1, Biotin (the key vitamin for healthy hair, skin and nails)2, and Vitamin B12 (the energy vitamin) 3 That is because in terms of nutrients, more is not always better. The reasoning behind this is that no matter how good or bad our diets may be we all naturally consume a certain amount of vitamins and minerals and other beneficial ingredients for our bodies. But our bodies can only process a certain amount of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients at a time.
We capped most ingredients at 100% of the RDA.That allows to add some additional ingredients like Glutathione (to slow down the ageing process)4, Bamboo extract (to support healthy hair, nails and skin)5, probiotics (to improve digestive health)6, Hyaluronic Acid (to promote skin elasticity)7, Inositol (to boost concentration)8 and Coenzyme Q10 (to help improve blood sugar regulation)9.
This means „Essentials“ is able to bridge the gap between your normal nutrient intake through food and the servings your body needs on a daily basis to maintain optimal health. During the month of Ramadan some customers find it beneficial to take 2 tablets instead of the recommended serving of 1 tablet per day. The 1st tablet is taken in the morning before fasting begins and 2nd tablet is taken during the evening after breaking the fast to compensate for the extended fasting hours. In addition watch out for our Ramadan Specials.
Furthermore the tablets are heat resistant and can withstand high temperatures, including the hottest summer days anywhere on the globe. However, the containers are never exposed to direct sunlight during the supply chain and once they are opened for consumption we recommend keeping them indoors at home, your workplace or any other location that is convenient for you. There is no need to keep the tablets in the fridge or a dark cupboard.
In terms of the best time to take this supplement some people prefer their daily dose early in the morning, while others take it around lunch time or in the evening. The serving size is conveniently 2 tablets per day with or without food according to your preference. You also don’t have to worry about taking it at the same time every day. 2 tablets per day anytime during the day is just fine. Your body can only process a certain amount of vitamins and minerals at a time and once you reach your optimal level, more is not better.
