A unique combination multi-mineral, mulivitamin and anti-oxidant! The natural active ingredients in this formulation favours it as one of the world’s leading antioxidant formulations.
Drawing on a wide range of natural sources, Slimming Clinic™ MultiAssist™ contains more active antioxidants than most other leading brands. It is a unique combination of high-dosage vitamin B complex, other well-known and well-research researched antioxidants, as well as gingko biloba, co-enzyme Q10, grape seed (pycnogenol) extract, kelp, green tea, lipoic acid and grape skin (resveratrol) extract.
Other minerals also include molybdenum, vanadium and chromium, to support the glucose tolerance factor and insulin-binding to receptor membranes. This means better energy metabolism within cells.
All minerals are in an amino acid chelated form, bound to amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. This ensures excellent absorption from the gut and efficient utilisation by body cells (superior bio-availability).
This product is uniquely formulated and may be combined with the other products in the Slimming Clinic™ range.
Indications
Slimming Clinic™ MultiAssist™ is a comprehensive formulation to ensure wellness and healthy aging, a general sense of well-being, increased energy levels and vitality.

A great Immune system booster.
Improved concentration and memory as well as mood elevation.
Active ingredients
• Herbs/plant extracts: Grape seed; Ginkgo biloba; Kelp powder; Green tea etc
• Micronutrients/Anti-oxidants: Co-enzyme Q10; Beta-carotene; Vit A, Vit C, Vit E
• B-complex vitamins: B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12; Folic acid; Biotin
• Minerals: Selenium; Zinc; Manganese; Molybdenum etc.
Role of anti-oxidants in the body:
Destroys free radicals to prevent cellular damage, retard ageing, ensure optimal function of all body systems
Directly enhances the performance of the immune system
Prevents the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol, thereby preventing damage to arterial lining that lead to thickening of the arteries
Suppress and neutralise the effect of carcinogens thereby preventing the growth of cancer cells.
MINERALS
Selenium
Vitamin E and selenium are essential components for a healthy immune system. They improve T-cell and B-cell immunity
Increases the body's general resistance to infection
Vitamin E and selenium are recommended for people suffering from Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease and for the prevention of breast, lung, uterine and stomach cancer
Zinc
Helps to control blood glucose levels
Acts as co-factor to anti-oxidant enzymes and processes
Manganese
Helps control the metabolism of glucose, proteins and cholesterol.
Chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, copper
Marginal deficiencies of these very important trace elements weaken the activity of all enzymes, resulting in reduced immune function and sluggish destruction of free radicals.
These trace minerals are essential for efficient blood sugar control and therefore optimal energy utilisation and carbohydrate metabolism within the body. It is the opinion of the writer that they are essential to be included in the holistic management plan of people suffering from insulin resistance, low blood sugar and diabetes.
HERBS
Grape seed extract (proanthocyanidin) with pycnogenol (pine bark)
Potent anti-oxidants that is useful to improve blood circulation in people with diabetes mellitus, variocose veins, arterial insufficiency, heart and lung health challenges
Important in the treatment of chronic inflammation.
Acts as natural anti-histamines.
Popular natural remedies for treating ADD.
Ginkgo biloba
Prevents platelet clotting and reduces the viscosity of blood.
Helps in the prevention and treatment of heart attacks, thrombosis and stroke by increasing oxygen supply to the damaged tissue.
Also protects nerve cells and improves memory and intellectual functions in the elderly
Recommended for winter hands & feet, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), vertigo (dizziness) and impotence.
Kelp
A good source of iodine
Iodine is essential for the formation and function of thyroid hormones that govern metabolism
Green tea extract
Contains catechins which provide protection against LDL-cholesterol (the bad cholesterol) oxidation and suppress the growth of many types of cancer.
Catechins provide protection from free radical damage caused by air pollution and smoking.
Lipoic acid
Potent anti-aging antioxidant that delays and slows down the ageing process and age related diseases.
Commonly used in the treatment of diabetes mellitus, to assist the liver’s detoxification function.
Effective in neutralizing toxic metals and side effects of mainstream medication.
Grape skin with resveratrol
Provides protection against cancer, atherosclerosis (thickening of the arteries) and other cardiovascular (heart, arteries, veins) diseases
Reduces inflammation
VITAMINS
Co-enzyme Q10
Support mechanism for the body’s energy system
Marginal deficiencies cause cells to become sluggish and function poorly
It is an immune system stimulant and antioxidant that also reinforces the function of vitamin E and vice versa.
It is recommended for people with cardiovascular (heart, arteries, veins) disease
Carotenes
Beta and other carotenes act as antioxidants on their own and they are also converted to vitamin A as and when the body needs it
This supplement contains the combinations of different carotenes
Vitamin A
Delays the ageing process, especially of the skin
Reduces the chance of a stroke and limits the brain damage after a stroke
Improves the body’s resistance to infections, especially in the respiratory system
Carotenes and vitamin A protect the body against the damage of free radicals from smoke and other pollutants
Vitamin C
Is properly best known for its role in collagen production. Collagen gives structure to the subcutaneous tissue and protects the structure of the skin
Accelerates the detoxification of toxins in the liver
Reduces the risk of atherosclerosis by ingesting free radicals and preventing the oxidation of LDL-cholesterol, thereby preventing the deposit of LDL-cholesterol into the artery lining.
Vitamin E
Vitamin E and selenium provide protection against cardiovascular disease:
Both act as natural anticoagulants (prevent blood clotting)
Improve the permeability of the capillaries, thereby allowing oxygen and nutrients to enter even into the sub cellular tissue
Prevent oxidation of LDL-cholesterol
