Today’s consumers attach more importance than ever to healthy and attractive physical looks. This is clearly reflected in their eating habits with diet trends and special nutrition plans to reduce the intake of fats, carbohydrates or proteins which are often supported by appropriate dietetic products and have now become a matter of course for many.

But one-sided diets or eating habits can quickly result in an inadequate intake of important vitamins and minerals or even deficiency symptoms and carry undesirable side effects and health risks.

Vitamins and minerals typically contained in Nutrition Balancer Premixes are vitamin A, thiamine, folate, vitamin B12, vitamin C, iron, magnesium and zinc.

These can be complemented, on request, with other active substances like caffeine, plant extracts (e. g. green tea extract), amino acids, B12, vitamin C, iron, magnesium and zinc.
