Kirkman®
offers Super Nu-Thera® liquid with P-5-P as part of the B-6 source for
those individuals who require that active form of B-6 for better
utilization. For individuals who find it difficult to swallow pills, a
liquid supplement may be the answer to easy compliance. This product
also does not contain vitamins A or D, so it is targeted for
individuals who obtain supplementation of vitamins A and/or D from cod
liver oil or another source(s). This cherry flavored liquid contains
no source of folate, so it is important when using this supplement to
also include a source of folic or folinic acid as recommended by your
physician.
Kirkman’s Super Nu-Thera®: Its beginning
Super Nu-Thera® has been Kirkman's most popular dietary supplement
since its inception in 1967. The original Super Nu-Thera® was
formulated by Kirkman® at the urgent request of a researcher
investigating special nutritional supplements. His request was for a
formulation with high vitamin B-6 and magnesium content that tasted
good so children would take the product. The original form of Super
Nu-Thera® was an orange flavored powdered supplement. This classic is
still available as our Super Nu-Thera® Powder (310/454).
What is unique about Super Nu-Thera®?
Super Nu-Thera® is a multiple vitamin/mineral supplement featuring
vitamin B-6 and magnesium. Super Nu-Thera® also contains the rest of
the B-vitamins, vitamin C, the oil soluble vitamins E, A, and D (in
many formulations), as well as the minerals zinc, manganese and
selenium. Some forms of Super Nu-Thera® also may include calcium,
depending on whether that product’s particular formulation can
incorporate the large volume of calcium required. Forms of Super
Nu-Thera® not containing calcium may require individuals to use a
calcium supplement if their diet is not supplying the Daily Recommended
Value of this important nutrient.
