Eating a well-balanced diet high in vitamins and minerals helps reduce the risk of physical health problems such as heart disease and diabetes. The correct daily intake of vitamins and minerals can also improve mental wellness, regulate sleeping patterns and energy levels. FG Factor drinks have been formulated to contain a number of essential vitamins and minerals that are critical to our wellbeing and good health:
Zinc
One 250ml can contains 38% RI
Zinc is a nutrient found throughout your body. It helps your immune system and metabolism function and is important for your sense of taste and small and to help wounds heal. It also helps make new cells and enzymes, process carbohydrate, fat and protein in food, and heal wounds.
Calcium
One 250ml can contains 39% RI
Calcium is an essential mineral that has several important functions including helping build strong bones and teeth, regulating muscle contractions (including your heartbeat), and making sure your blood clots normally.
Vitamin D
One 250ml can contains 39% RI
Nicknamed the “sunshine vitamin” because it is produced in your skin in response to sunlight, Vitamin D is actually a hormone and is a major player in keeping the human body healthy. Supporting our skin, bones, teeth and muscles, this superhero vitamin also boosts the immune system and fights inflammation in our body. It has also been shown to boost weight loss and reduce depression. Few foods contain Vitamin D naturally and many people do not get the required levels of sunlight with 1 in 5 people in the UK having a Vitamin D deficiency. This can be directly linked to tiredness, aches pains and a general feeling of being unwell.
Vitamin B12
One 250ml can contains 38% RI
This nutrient is critical to nerve formation and cell production and a deficiency can lead to low energy and anaemia. B12 is required for the proper function and development of the brain, nerves, blood cells and many other parts of the body.
Vitamin C
One 250ml can contains 38% RI
Vitamin C has several important functions but cannot be stored in the body, so you need it in your diet every day. It may boost immunity by helping white blood cells function more effectively, strengthening your skin’s defence system and helping wounds heal faster.
Vitamin A
One 250ml can contains 38% RI
Vitamin A is a powerful anti-oxidant essential for sight, bones and teeth, growth and tissue repair. It also contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
Ginkgo Biloba
This herbal supplement has high antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It can increase blood flow and may improve bran function and mental wellbeing.
Magnesium
One 250ml can contains 38% RI allowance
Magnesium is a mineral that helps turn the food we eat into energy, making sure the parathyroid glands, which produce hormones important for bone health, work efficiently.

Vitamin E helps maintain healthy skin and eyes, and it strengthens the body’s natural defence against illness and infection. It is critical for the proper functioning of the immune system and protects cells from oxidative stress.
