Why is Performance Lab The Best Multivitamin of 2020?

Performance Lab is the best multivitamin to buy for 2020! But why? It’s great value for money considering the advanced manufacturing process of each ingredient. Let me explain…

This ‘state of the art’ supplement is highly bioavailable and made to be ‘nature identical’. This means it’s classed as a wholefood multivitamin supplement. (more on this below) 

Furthermore, the intelligent pairing of each highly bioavailable ‘wholefood’ nutrient found inside this health and sports supplement, shows that it follows the most up-to-date research on supplementation.

Highly Bioavailable

Unlike other supplement companies who synthetically produce their ingredients using harsh chemicals. Performance Lab ‘lab’ grown their own ingredients to create ‘nature identical’ wholefood supplements.

For example, Performance Lab use live single-cell organisms (probiotics, brewer’s yeast and botanicals). They are grown in a lab to create the same vitamins and minerals that you’d otherwise find in food sources.

These organisms are seeded with micronutrients in a hydroponic medium. From there, they grow and multiply forming vitamins, minerals and amino acids which become nature identical.

This makes Performance Lab vitamins and minerals ‘Nature Identical’. What does this mean exactly??

This means that your body won’t be able to tell the difference between a whole food source and the ingredients inside Performance Lab Multi – as they are one of the same – Nature Identical.

Synthetic Free

Most of the multivitamins you’ll find are made using synthetic ingredients that have been created using several chemicals to mimic a vitamin or a mineral. Why is this a bad thing?

Research shows that synthetic supplements can be harder for the body to absorb and utilise. (I) Not only that, but we don’t know the long terms effects of supplement use from an aggressive synthetic form.

For example, the synthetic form of vitamin C (also known as ascorbic acid) has been shown to cause dizziness or fainting. It can also increase urination, and stomach cramps to name a few. (II)

This is why using non-synthetic wholefood sources of vitamins and minerals should be a priority wherever possible. Performance Lab contains only natural, lab-grown, nature-identical ingredients.

Furthermore, the colourings that you’ll find in other multivitamins do nothing positive for your body but turn your urine a different colour.

Not only that! These synthetic colourings have been shown to cause attention deficit disorder. (III) You’ll be happy to know they are not present in Performance Lab Whole-Food Multi.

Intelligently Paired and Dosed

It’s not always about how much you consume in the form of vitamins and minerals, but how much your body can absorb and use.

Most often, you’ll find multivitamins that contain a long list of ingredients. This, to most people, seems like good value for money. However, this isn’t always the case.

What most people don’t realise is that many “complementary” or “additional” ingredients can actually work against each other – ultimately cancelling out their potentially positive effects on the body.

To give you an example; when multivitamins contain too much of certain ingredients, they begin to work against each other. Vitamin K 1 and 2, for example, are important for blood clotting and bone strength.

However, when they’re paired with high doses of vitamin E of 800 UI and over, it can thin your blood – affecting blood pressure and that ability for your body to use other vitamins and minerals properly. (IV)

Performance Lab, on the other hand, has scientifically dosed each ingredient to create a natural balance. This balance helps the ingredients to work at their highest capacity. This allows you to receive the full benefits of each, highly bioavailable ingredient.

Not just that, but when you look into ingredients such as boron, which has been shown to stimulate hormone production (beneficial for muscle growth and repair) more doesn’t mean better. Taking higher doses of boron can prevent T production to happen to its full potential.

Therefore, you’ll be happy to know that Performance Lab uses smaller doses. This is what I like to call micro-dosing of essential vitamins and minerals to ‘top-up’ your stores, rather than flooding the body.

Contains ‘Pre’ and Probiotics

While other companies use rice bulking and anti-cracking agents to hold their synthetic ingredients. Performance Lab uses intelligent plant caps.

Their vegan-friendly Plantcaps® hold the highly bioavailable wholefood ingredients which contain prebiotics. It’s this prebiotics that helps to increase absorption rates of the ingredients inside this ingenious supplement.

Not only that, but prebiotics will also increase gut health-promoting faster better food and nutrient absorption. This works as they ‘feed’ your already existing gut bacteria, creating a stronger immune system.

Furthermore, thanks to the way this supplement has been designed, the vitamins and minerals themselves also contain probiotics in the form of Lactobacillus. Which again, helps to increase gut health.

Improves Hormone Production Naturally

As previously mentioned there’s the inclusion of boron. This mineral has been shown to help stimulate the endocrine gland production of testosterone. This leads to greater strength and muscle tissue repair.

There is, however, a slight difference in how much the men’s formula contains and the women’s formula. For men, you’ll find 4mg and for women, you’ll find 1mg.

This caters for both sexes. Which means hormone production will remain balanced and consistent whilst using Performance Lab Whole-Food Multi.

And there’s one interesting point to mention here which ties into ‘intelligent supplement dosing’. This is the small yet adequate amounts of boron.

Studies have indicated smaller amounts of boron have a greater effect than aggressive dosing – which is more apparent in other multivitamins. Actually, larger doses offset hormone production, eventually cancelling T production.

GMP Certified and GMO-Free

While many supplement companies have shiny logos and self-published ‘awards’, supposedly highlighting their quality, not many of them are GMP Certified or GMO-Free.

Being GMP Certified means that the supplement company have followed good manufacturing practices. These manufacturing processes must be clearly defined and controlled.

This means, when investing in supplements which are GMP Certified, you know you’re getting a safe, and quality controlled product.

Not only that, but many supplement companies use ingredients that have been genetically modified. And while there’s not enough long-term research showing genetically modified foods to be a danger to our DNA, scientists are remaining vigilant to new data emerging in the future.

Long story short, Performance Lab is GMP Certified and GMO-Free. Which means that you’re not putting your body in harm’s way, thanks to its safe and controlled, lab-grown ingredients.

Stimulant Free

Stimulants can be good in certain situations. When you need to increase your endurance capacity, caffeine or adaptogens can give you that lift you’re looking for.

However, when they are paired together in large doses, they can cause anxiety. Not only that, but they can cause alterations in the way vitamins and minerals interact in the body. (V)

Furthermore, when we’re looking to increase our health and well-being on a daily basis, we might want to avoid stimulants as they raise our stress response – preventing the body from healing effectively.

This is because of lifestyle stress, work, exercise and the constant connection to social media etc, all impact how our body uses vitamins and minerals. Therefore it makes sense to choose stimulants to use at the right times, not every day with your multivitamin.

Company Trust

One question I’d like to ask you is this; Do you know where, or how your supplements are being made? Most often, we don’t have a clue where our supplements are being manufactured.

You, me, your neighbours, or your high school teacher can contact ‘white label’ supplement manufacturers with nothing more than a design and logo.

What tends to happen is a number of supplement manufacturers follow old data and out-of-date studies on what works and, most often, what doesn’t.

This can have negative consequences which cause side effects that result from using high doses of synthetic materials as previously mentioned.

One thing I can say about the people behind Performance Lab is; they have done their research. And it’s obvious they care about the products and the people who use their supplements.

To highlight this point, you just have to look at Performance Lab website to see their transparency behind how they manufacture their supplements. Tell me one other company that’s so open about this process, I bet you can’t find one!

Good Value for Money

Last but not least, is Performance Lab Whole-Food Multi good value for money? You might argue that £40, or $50 USD is a high price for a multivitamin.

However, when you consider it’s lab-grown, nature-identical, scientifically dosed and paired. And stimulant, GMO-Free and GMP Certified – I would say it’s excellent value for money.

To highlight this point further; I once had a comment on my YouTube channel (Performance Lab Rice Protein Review). My subscriber thought that it was more expensive and wasn’t going to offer 5x the benefits.

I explained to him the following;

“There are many advantages to using quality where possible. However, we sometimes have to pick and choose where we can, and where we think it will have the most benefit in our diet. For some, it will be protein, others it might be a multivitamin or a carbohydrate supplement, whatever fits the budget and benefits.”

Long story short, if you can afford quality over quantity, I know which one I would choose.

By giving your body the best vitamins, minerals, amino acids – whatever it may be, will have a more positive effect ‘long term’ than other potentially harmful supplements.
