Kirkman is pleased to offer a new comprehensive nutritional supplement which incorporates a wide spectrum of vitamins, minerals and other nutritional factors. Many parents find it difficult to give their child a multitude of different supplements daily or several times a day, and other parents are unsure of which nutritional supplement regimen to follow. Some parents may be waiting for laboratory or physician's reports which will eventually be a guide to a supplement program. In this case a broad spectrum dietary supplement is suggested in the interim. SpectrumComplete™ helps solve all these issues by being very comprehensive and because it tastes good and dissolves well, kids should not resist compliance.

SpectrumComplete™ will also offer an alternative to Kirkman's Super Nu-Thera® product line which contains higher dosages of vitamin B-6. Some children do not respond to the high B-6 or to Super Nu-Thera® in general, but those individuals still need a very comprehensive, high quality supplement. SpectrumComplete™ fills that role with nutrients in highly absorbable forms. Those parents wanting to use SpectrumComplete™ but wanting higher B-6 levels can supplement with additional B-6 or Pyridoxal- 5-Phosphate.

Summarizing the above discussion, SpectrumComplete™ should find valuable application in the following situations:

• Parents new to supplementation who want to start with one comprehensive product.
• Compliance situations where parents find it very difficult to get multiple supplements in their children.
• When parents are awaiting laboratory and/or physician's reports to guide them in setting up a supplement program.
• When high B-6 products such as Super Nu-Thera® are not effective.
• As a comprehensive foundation to supplementation, to which other products can be added per testing results or doctor's instructions.
• As an alternative to less complete products being offered by other supplement companies.

• A full spectrum of immune supporting ingredients including vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, selenium, Coenzyme Q-10, and beta glucan.
• Pro-Vitamin A from mixed carotenoids as well as the regular standard form vitamin A acetate. These mixed carotenoids consist of Beta Carotene, Lutein and Zeaxanthan, powerful antioxidants and free radical scavengers. It is important to also include a substantial amount of non-carotenoid vitamin A such as the acetate.
• In addition to Beta Carotene, Lutein and Zeaxanthan, the powerful antioxidants Coenzyme Q-10 and Grapeseed Extract are present.
• Choline which is essential in the manufacture of the neurotransmitter, "acetylcholine".
• Inositol, Taurine and Glycine which are required for liver support. Inositol is also necessary for proper nerve, brain, and muscle function.
• Taurine and Glycine help maintain the neurotransmitters in the brain and produce a calming effect on the body. Glycine is needed by the body to stimulate glutathione production.
• 200 mg. of Glucosamine Sulfate which provides sulfur in the form of sulfate which helps to support the phenol sulfotransferase (PST) enzyme system.
• Molybdenum which is important in sulfur metabolism and may help support the PST system. Molybdenum may also be important in supporting healthy copper levels.
• Selenium for its immune supporting properties and chromium piccolinate as a chromium source.
• DMAE to aid in focusing.
• Higher vitamin B-12 potencies are present. Since B-12 is a water soluble nutrient which does not accumulate to toxic levels in the body, Kirkman feels this higher level of B-12 is warranted.
