Magno-Humphries Laboratories Introduces Folical-D(tm), A New Nutritional Supplement That Addresses Serious Nutrition Shortfall In Americans Diets

Folical-D (tm) is a new nutritional supplememnt containing FoliSolv (tm) that combines calcium, folic acid, and vitamin D.

(PRWEB) February 8, 2005 -- Magno-Humphries Laboratories, Inc launches Folical-D - A new tablet formula containing 100% recommended daily value of Folic Acid, Calcium, and vitamin D that supplements an inadequate diet with a variety of health benefits.

According to the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey III, vital segments of Americans are not getting enough vitamin D resulting in suboptimal absorption of calcium. A survey published in September 2004 by the March of Dimes states that 60% of childbearing-age women are not consuming the levels of folic acid they need. Several recent studies suggest that a long-term consumption of the daily value of these 3 nutrients will promote bone density and may contribute to prevention of hypertension, stroke, coronary artery disease, diabetes, some forms of cancer and neural tube birth defects, such as spina bifida.

U.S. Food and Drug Administration Daily Value of Key Nutrients:

2 Tablets of Folical-D provide:

Folic Acid - 400 micrograms (100% DV)

Calcium - 1,000 milligrams (120% DV)

Vitamin D - 400 International Units (100% DV)

Folical-D is a lifetime maintenance formula benefiting consumers in every stage of their adult life. With all 3 supplements in one tablet, there is a significant cost savings over purchasing all 3 individually. A daily dose of 2 tablets also cuts down on number of pills required to swallow. Folical-D is currently available to through the Optimum® brand of nutritional supplements and uses FoliSolv -- the only patented (US Patent #6,248,361) 100% water soluble folic acid formula available. Folical-D will be available soon for private label. Contact Ed Benson, vice president of sales and marketing for details at 503- 684-5464 x108.
