Stress and worn out?
Full of zest through the day
How would you characterize your general well-being?
  • Do you sometimes lack the necessary power to make decisions?
  • Can you sometimesnot sleep well?
  • Does bad weather dampen your mood?
The answers to these questions give indications about your personal quality of life. Various factors can influence it, among them stress, hectic scrambling, increasing demands of everyday life, improper diet. Today people face more and more challenges and pressure - as a consequence the body's natural reserves diminish and your quality of life suffers.
The study set-up
A double-blind study - meaning that neither the treating physician nor the patients knew exactly which medication had been administered - conducted at the University of Mexico (UNAM) in 1996 tested quality of life over a three-month period. 625 subjects suffering from conditions of exhaustion were examined concerning their health condition. They were randomly divided into two groups: group A daily received a multivitamin product containing 20 vitamins, group B a special combination of vitamins, minerals, trace elements and the standardized G115® ginseng extract.
The scientific proof
Under scientific supervision the subjects had to answer detailed questionnaires that recorded their quality of life (QoL). The statements on the answer sheet clearly illustrated the quality of life of the individual subjects. The vitality in group a receiving the multivitamin supplement had hardly changed, in group B, on the other hand, an appreciable improvement was measured.
Life with zest
This study clearly demonstrates that the pure multivitamin product supplies the body with nutrients, but does not increase vitality. On the other hand, a combination of vitamins, minerals, trace elements combined with the standardised G115® ginseng extract improves quality of life. All the nutrients given to the subjects in group B are present in the nutritional formula of Pharmaton®.
