Your Questions Answered About Active Energy Vegan Vitamins and Supplements

I always start my mornings with a delicious cup of coffee and a bite to eat. I was wondering if it's alright to have Active Energy with my coffee. Specifically, I want to know if there are any issues with absorption. Hi, as caffeine has a diuretic effect, our advice is to drink your coffee and wait approximately 30 minutes before taking Active Energy (or any other supplement). To be perfectly honest, we literally mean to wait until you've been to the bathroom as likely triggered by the coffee! This is to avoid the water-based vitamins in Active Energy (or other supplements) being flushed straight through before the body has time to absorb them.

Thanks Hi, we would expect both Active Energy and Bone Care formulas to support normal Uric Acid levels. We can't find any indication that any of the components can contribute negatively. Our recommendation is to monitor your Uric Acid level again in the coming months to see if it was a seasonal spike. It is worth consulting your Doctor if your Uric Acid levels remain high.

Hello, Been taking your products for awhile now and really like them. My naturopath brought up the issue of absorbability of multivitamin tablets. Just wondering if you've got any data showing how much of the contents of your multivitamin tablets are actually absorbed by the body? Just don't want to blow crazy money on the products my naturopath is using if I'm getting enough from vegetology. Cheers Hi, it is a very important point and the key to absorption is the form of the nutrients used, and the structure of the supplement itself. We work very carefully on the specific combinations of nutrients to ensure no change of interaction, and to provide optimal absorption. We stand by all of our formulas in terms of delivering high strength and efficacy.

I take Active Energy, Omega-3, MultiVit and Bone Care and B-12, Glucosamine, Vit C and Zinc. How many should I take a day?

We don't recommend doubling up on multivitamins as you will inadvertently double-up on some nutrients where it is not beneficial to do so. If you continue with this regime, please don't take additional B12, Glucosamine, Vitamin C or Zinc, because these nutrients will be covered already. If you wanted to, you can combine Bone Care and Active Energy on the same day (so your regime could be Omega-3 + MultiVit on Monday, Omega-3 + Bone Care and Active Energy on Tuesday, repeat). Please just consider the elevated level of Vitamin C.

As B Vitamins are water-soluble, there isn't a risk of taking too much. Your body grabs what it needs and any excess is excreted.

Since the list of ingredients overlaps with other product i take daily from you ( Multivit) is it ok if I take both? We recommend only one of the multivitamin formulas (so one of MultiVit, Bone Care, Active Energy Complex or Pregnancy Care). Don’t double up on any of these.

Active Energy Complex is specifically designed to target tiredness and fatigue, combining B Vitamins with herbs used in traditional Chinese medicines and other selected nutrients. The aim is to help reset the body clock and try to energise at the right time of the day but relax at the right time of the night.

Can the active energy complex cause your urine to be a bit greeny in colour? This is quite common when taking supplements with high amounts of B Vitamins. It is absolutely normal, fine and safe.
