Version 3 of Synergy Basic provides a superior multi-vitamin with more antioxidants for the budget-minded. At a cost of only $15 per month, two capsules per day can help supply your essential daily nutrition. Synergy Basic Version 3 has effective amounts of many powerful antioxidants, including alpha lipoic acid (300 mg), green tea extract (200 mg), coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) (100 mg) and quercetin (100 mg) (the major bioflavonoid in our diet). CoQ10 has been shown in many clinical studies to promote cardiovascular health and appears to be important also for neurological health. Synergy Basic has an effective amount of CoQ10 (100 mg) using naturally fermented CoQ10. Alpha lipoic acid is a powerful "universal" antioxidant that is active in all tissues (water-soluble and fat-soluble). Alpha lipoic acid, chromium (400 mcg as chromium polynicotinate in the highly absorbable form ChromeMate®), and biotin (1,000 mcg) may promote healthy blood glucose by reducing glucose tolerance and decreasing insulin resistance. Alpha lipoic acid may also restore glucose availability in tissues such as the skeletal muscle. When vitamin C, vitamin E, CoQ10, or alpha lipoic acid neutralize free radicals, they CoQ10 can recycle inactive vitamin C and vitamin E back to active, protective antioxidants. Furthermore, alpha lipoic acid can also recycle inactive vitamin C, vitamin E, CoQ10 and alpha lipoic acid. become inactive. Synergy Basic has the powerful antioxidant trio of resveratrol (ResveraPure®), grape seed extract (ActiVin®) and red wine extract so as to offer some of the health benefits found in red wine. Thus Synergy Basic has a potent antioxidant network that helps keep antioxidants effectively working against free radicals. Vitamin D3 is important for healthy bones, heart, brain and immune system. Most importantly, optimal intake of vitamin D3 is associated with protection from abnormal cell growth. NSI® scientific advisors recommend an optimal daily intake of approximately 2,000 to 4,000 IU of vitamin D3. Synergy Basic has 2,000 IU of vitamin D3. Synergy Basic has vitamin C (300 mg) using the non-acidic (easy on the stomach) and longer circulating mineral ascobate complex (Advan-C®). It contains the full spectrum of B vitamins including folic acid, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12 (in the potent neuroactive form of methylcobalamin) which may decrease homocysteine blood levels. Vitamin E (100 IU), selenium (200 mcg L-selenomethionine as SeleniumSeLECT®), and the most active, chelated form of zinc (zinc L-methionine as L-OptiZinc®) (30 mg) may boost the immune system. Zinc and selenium are also essential for promoting a healthy prostate. Lutein is a unique antioxidant that is concentrated in the macula of the retina, where we have our high resolution visual functions, such as reading. Lutein at 6 mg or higher may protect the eyes from free radical damage that leads to vision loss. Synergy Basic includes 6 mg of lutein. The combination of lutein, alpha lipoic acid, CoQ10, other antioxidants and zinc may help protect the eyes. NSI® Synergy Basic Multi-Vitamin Version 3 is better because it:. - Provides added nutrients with effective doses not found in typical multi-vitamins! - Was formulated based on published scientific and medical research. . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.

"After reviewing the vitamin and mineral content, I decided to try out a new product for my multi-vitamin supplements. This one seemed excellent. However, after taking one per morning for one week, I began to experience heavy sweating that became extreme when I did cardio workouts. I also noted that my overall health decreased, and my strength levels decreased. I tried to stay on this product long enough to rule other things out like being sick or reacting to allergies or such. However, after ceasing use for a week, I tried them again, and the same problem returned. It's back to Solaray for me."

"Because I have specific health problems, I take specific drugs that interact with most of the other Synergy products (mostly the ginkgo.) It also means I require certain supplements.
NSI's synergy basic is clearly a well-thought out multi. It's not the only thing I take, but it makes an excellent foundation. Would have personally gone with K2 over K1, and double the amount of E, ALA and grapeseed extract, but otherwise it's almost exactly what I would do if I made my own 2-pill multi. This way is a lot cheaper though!"

"I usually don't notice anything when taking supplements, even new ones i try. I have been taking this for 2 weeks and I actually noticed i felt better after taking this supplement during the first week.
I am very happy with it. I do have to add iron and additional magnesium and calcium, but I will be able to take less pills and save money as these supplements have the ala and green tea and q10 i normally have to buy separately."

"This is an excellent mulri-vitamin choice EXCEPT that it lacks magnesium. Most people's diet is deficient in magnesium, and it is essential to good health. You need to point this out in the description, and recommend that people who buy this product also buy Magnesium Ultra, or a similar product. The resulting combination is hard to beat for 3 capsules per day."

"I'm glad I discovered this multi. The value is excellent. The things I appreciate about this multi are: excellent level of Vit D, high amount of CoQ10 and Alpha Lipoic Acid, and the high amount of a variety of excellent antioxidants. Since I take these morning and evening, I only have to add a few things at lunch. I like the fact that there are very low levels of calcium and no magnesium. This allows me to add my own amounts and types of these minerals. This multi was developed by someone who understood nutrition and what levels of essential nutrients are needed by most people. An excellent, common sense multi. Would recommend as a foundation to most any supplementation program."

"I have been taking NSI Synergy for years. However, the old version did not have the antioxident content that is in the current version. NSI is now saving me money by not having to buy an additional product, and the low price of this Synergy makes this multi one of the best deals around! Did I mention that the quality of this multi is super?? Highly, highly recommended."

"The only multi-vitamin better than this are Nature's Way Alive and Garden of Life Living Multi but they cost a lot more. It has a strong smell though but that's minor compared to the quality and value of the product. Now if you can make it more compact that you can fit 2 capsules in one to make it a One-a-Day product then that would be FTW!"

"I switched from version 2 to version 3 of the Synergy Basic line in order to get extra vitamin D without having to take an additional suppliment to get 2,000iu. So far, it is very well tolerated. However, I don't know what is causing it but my urine has a strong odor like a skunk. It's only developed since I started taking these multi's. I may have to go back to version 2 and take additional vitamin D. Otherwise, good product with great balance of vits and mins."
