Life Extension®s Once-Daily Health Booster (formerly known as Super Booster) is a cost-effective formula that combines a variety of valuable nutrients in one softgel. Health Booster contains many critical nutrients missing from most multivitamin formulas in a convenient daily softgel, designed to complement the Life Extension Mix or One/Two-Per-Day formulas.

Once-Daily Health Booster provides the following nutrients:

• Vitamins K1 and K2, including the rapidly absorbed MK-4 and the 24-hour bioavailable MK-7, 1 to keep calcium in the bones and out of the arteries.
• MacuGuard® proprietary blend, which contains trans-zeaxanthin, meso-zeaxanthin, and lutein to support eye health and healthy vision, now contains alpha-carotene to further support macular health.2
• Saffron has been added to help maintain visual acuity, based on cutting edge research findings3, 4
• Gamma tocopherol, a highly effective form of vitamin E, which quenches a dangerous free radical (peroxynitrite) that plays a major role in age-related decline.5, 6
• Vitamin E as D-alpha tocopherol to suppress lipid peroxidation.7, 8
• Blueberry extract to boost DNA function and sustain healthy blood sugar levels already within normal range.9, 10
• Sesame lignans to boost tissue levels of gamma tocopherol.11
• Lycopene to support prostate health and guard against LDL oxidation.12, 13
• Chlorophyllin, which offers protection against environmentally induced DNA damage.14
• Black currant extract anthocyanins to promote eye health.15
• Vitamin B12 to help maintain a healthy nervous system and metabolism.16

Just one softgel of the new Health Booster taken with a heavy meal provides optimized potencies of fat-soluble vitamins, carotenoids, and other nutrients needed by maturing individuals. Taken separately, the individual ingredients in Once-Daily Health Booster would cost two to three times more.
