About
the Vitamins in the LEVITY Program
The "antidepressant cocktail"
described by authors Brown and Robinson in their book, When
Your Body Gets The Blues, is a blend of six important
vitamin ingredients:
| Vitamin D |
|
400IU |
| Vitamin B1 |
|
50mg |
| Vitamin B2 |
|
50mg |
| Vitamin B6 |
|
50mg |
| Folic Acid |
|
400mcg |
| Selenium |
|
200mcg |
While well-known, these ingredients are rarely found in
significant doses in multivitamins, and until recently were
not available in this specific combination. Learn about
the Levity Mood Elevating Supplement,
a newly available formula that was the actual product used
in the LEVITY study).
Studies show that the majority of Americans
- especially those with depression symptoms - are deficient
in these key nutrients. To promote overall emotional and
mental well being, LEVITY contains six key nutrients in
specific dosages that most people don't get through a daily
diet. That's why taking LEVITY dietary supplement, along
with light and exercise, is vital for fighting the "Body
Blues."
As written by authors Dr. Marie-Annette
Brown and Jo Robinson in their book about the LEVITY Program,
When Your Body Gets
The Blues, the LEVITY formula can improve the
mood of both men and women, but it is more likely to benefit
women:
The main reason is that
we designed it specifically to meet women's needs. For example,
one factor that influenced our choice of ingredients is
that women are more likely than men to be deficient in certain
nutrients, expecially the B vitamins. Their lower intake
of the B vitamins is partly due to the fact that more women
than men are on diets low in these key nutrients, including
low-calorie, vegetarian, and vegan diets. Taking oral contraceptives
and perhaps hormone replacement therapy can also increase
the need for vitamin B6. Another and more surprising reason
that the LEVITY formula is likely to work better for women
is that some of the ingredients [namely B1, B2, B6 and folic
acid] have been shown to improve the mood or mental performance
of women but not men.
