This brand of dietary nutritional supplements, from some of the most beneficial vitamins & minerals formulated into 2 separate capsules, Nerve Essential and Energy Essential.  

Nerve Essential capsules (with key ingredients of Benfotiamine, Magnesium Glycinate, Vitamin D3, Vitamin B6, and Vitamin B12) aim to reduce nerve pain/neuropathy (such as numbness, tingling, pins & needles sensations), leg cramps, and muscle weakness.  

Energy Essential capsules (with key ingredients of Thiamine, Vitamin B12, CoQ10, and Moringa leaf extract) aim to combat low energy, chronic fatigue, and general weakness.  

These 2 different capsules are designed to be taken together daily for maximum results.  Ingredients from both capsules are intended to be taken together for increased benefits.  

As we age, our bodies gradually absorb less of the vitamins and minerals we consume from food.  Certain medical conditions like diabetes and thyroid abnormalities deplete even more essential vitamins and minerals, such as Magnesium and vitamin B1/Thiamine.  Regular alcohol and coffee consumption will deplete essential vitamins and minerals from our bodies as well.  About 70% of our general population have Magnesium deficiency, which is a macro-mineral involved in over 300 different
enzymatic functions in our bodies. 

Therefore, combining ingredients from both CARDINA Nerve Essentialand CARDINA Energy Essential will best support our nerve, muscle, bone, and cardiovascular systems, improving common symptoms of numbness, cramps, fatigue, chronic pain, and weakness.

Diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy will likely benefit from our CARDINA supplements the most.  Many studies indicate that both Magnesium and Benfotiamine help regulate blood sugar levels, and may reduce risks of diabetic neuropathy and diabetic nephropathy.  

Populations most at risk for a Magnesium deficiency include individuals with gastrointestinal disorders (such as Crohn’s disease), individuals with type 2 diabetes, individuals with alcohol dependence, and older adults in general. This is particularly due to absorbability complications.

Benfotiamine, a lipid-soluble form of vitamin B1 and also a potent antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties, plays a key role in decreasing the progression of atherosclerosis and thus helps in vascular complications associated with diabetes.

Every individual vitamin and mineral in our CARDINA supplements is generally safe and well-tolerated with no reports of serious adverse events in many studies. Take precautions and never exceed the recommended dose.  If you have a known medical condition, are taking prescription medications, or are pregnant or lactating, consult with your physician before use.
