COLLAGEN PRODUCTION (in addition to Vitamin C)
Selenium (200 mcg/day seleno-methionine)	Part of body’s main AO enzyme GPx *; prevents cancer, boosts immunity; lifts mood; antiviral; Brazil nuts (1 fresh shelled ~100mcg, 1 pre-shelled ~12-25mcg); ;
Manganese: Whole grain, nuts, seeds, chickpeas;	Part of AO enzyme SOD**; Cofactor for procollagen synthesis;
Zinc (~12 mg/day (W) ~15 mg/day (M) (Recommended – not DV) (supplement as zinc glycinate, zinc acetate, zinc gluconate, zinc picolinate, or zinc sulfate).	Part of AO enzyme SOD**; Cofactor for procollagen synthesis; 1/4 Cup Soaked / sprouted raw or dry-roasted pumpkin seeds contains ~4 mg; 3.5oz beef / pork / chicken contains ~3-5mg; 1/4; shellfish is a high zinc source but not recommended because of toxin content;
Copper (2-4 mg /day)	Part of AO enzyme SOD**; component of enzyme (lysyl oxidase) required to make collagen/elastin.
Iron (~15mg/day)	Iron is a cofactor in collagen manufacture (hydroxylates proline and lysine);if supplementing prefer ferrous sulphate, fumarate, gluconate, or ascorbate.
*GPx (Glutathione Peroxidase) – body’s main antioxidant enzyme for reducing lipid reactive oxidants and for reducing hydrogen peroxide (source of hydroxyl radicals) to water in reactions requiring glutathione (PRIMARY antioxidant and detoxifier in cell’s cytoplasm). **SOD (Superoxide Dismutase) – is a major antioxidant endogenous enzyme; SOD removes the superoxide radical (a source of hydrogen peroxide and hydroxyl radical); Concentration of SOD in mammals is directly proportional to life span.
ESSENTIAL FATS (Omega-3 and Omega-6)
Omega-3 is CRUCIAL to maintaining and restoring health Average maintenance dose of omega-3: ~400-500 mg of combined EPA + DHA / day (equivalent to eating at least 2 servings of oily fish per week). About 2g / day of krill, fish body or cod liver oil provides about 190-240 mg EPA and 120-260 mg DHA. The similar dose of concentrated oil (EE or rTG) is determined by individual product (usually ~0.6 g). Therapeutic dose of omega-3 with deficiency problems (E.g. coronary heart disease, arthritis, depression, anxiety) 0.75 – 1 gram EPA + DHA / day. i.e. Up to double the maintenance dose (3 – 4 grams of krill, fish oil or cod liver oil). Therapeutic doses in studies typically use 3 grams of marine oil /day. For those with high blood pressure, 3 grams / day of marine oil is appropriate. (Since 1 tsp. liquid marine oil is 4.6 grams – 3 grams is about 2/3 tsp.) EFAS – THE “FATS OF LIFE” Dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA) is an omega-6 anti-inflammatory fatty acid that is supplemented for specific health problems such as Sjogren’s (dry eyes) syndrome and premenstrual syndrome. Borage, blackcurrant or evening primrose oils for Omega-6 DGLA
ANTIOXIDANTS
VITAMIN A (β-carotene) 10,000 IU	Vitamin A – butter, cream, cheese, WHOLE milk, 1 tsp. quality cod liver oil; β-carotene (Must eat fat for its conversion to Vitamin A) E.g. 2 Carrots, ½ C boiled spinach, broccoli,sweet potatoes, apricots, acorn squash, pumpkin, cantaloupe, mango, collard greens; Vitamin A – “The Grass Vitamin”
B VITAMINS:	Convert homocysteine (byproduct from meat and dairy metabolism) to less toxic amino acids.
B3 (niacin) ( 20 mg NE/day) (supplement as nicotinamide, aka nicotinamide – close to active form NAD)B3 Therapeutic dose: 1000-1500 mg /day (in divided doses)	NE stands for Niacin Equivalents. 1 NE = 1 mg niacin = 60 mg tryptophan (this amino acid can be converted to niacin in the body). Yeast, meat and legumes are good low-sugar sources.Therapetic dose only for those who want to lower cholesterol – dose begins at ~1000mg for most people. Inositol hexaniacinate is a “flush-free” niacin supplement / minimizes liver damage;
B6 (pyridoxine) (< 65 yrs: 2mg / day; >=65 yrs: 3 mg / day) (supplement as pyridoxine hydrochloride)	Underlying systemic inflammation (present in most diseases) tends to lower body’s B6 status. Wild salmon, turkey, chicken, spinach and hazelnuts are good low-sugar sources. Also bananas, russet potatoes and prunes are good B3 sources.
B9 (folic acid) (400-1200 mcg /day)
B12 (cobalamin) (100-200 mcg / day)
VITAMIN C (Ascorbic Acid): Fresh fruits and vegetables Plus 2-3g (¼ -1/3 tsp) x 2 daily doses in water. This is the preventative dose of Rath-Pauling Therapy Pure pharmaceutical grade ascorbic acid. Not buffered (combined with a mineral).	Cofactor for collagen/elastin production – main components of cartilage, ligaments, tendons in joints, bones and teeth; reason why broken bones regenerate and wounds heal; strengthens blood vessels (preventing atherosclerosis / CVD; responsible for skin strength and elasticity (without which we are looking at wrinkles!) Recycles vitamin E; Chelating (metal grabbing); MAJOR ANTIOXIDANT; Central Nervous System has inbuilt double-pumps to increase its cellular vitamin C intake (i.e your brain knows its importance). Largely destroyed by high heat and > 2 months freezing; dissolves in cooking water (somewhat retained in soup water). Vitamin C – Gods Medicine
RATH-PAULING THERAPY To strengthen connective tissue
Vitamin C Preventative: 2-3g (~¼-1/3 tsp) x 2 dosesTherapeutic: 2g x 3 dosesSerious therapeutic: 3g x 3 doses	Pure pharmaceutical grade ascorbic acid. Not buffered (combined with a mineral). The therapeutic level doses are used in the Rath-Pauling Therapy to overcome a health problem related to collagen deficiency
Lysine 1g x3 /2g x3 /3g x 3 doses	Needed to make connective tissue collagen and elastin: also prevents collagen breakdown
Proline .5g x 1 /.5g x2 /.5g x 3 doses	Needed to make connective tissue collagen and elastin
EGCG 200 mg 4 times / day, if cancer present)	RATH CELLULAR SOLUTION (enhances Rath-Pauling therapy to prevent cancer metasasis): Powerful AO found in green tea. add EGCG and extra Proline to THERAPEUTIC dose of Rath- Pauling Therapy. Daily doses: 2g Vitamin C 3x / day; 2g Lysine 3x / day; 0.5g Proline 4 x /day; 200 mg EGCG 4x / day

Vitamin E 400 IU / day	Use natural mixed d-forms of tocopherol (not synthetic dl-forms); major antioxidant; In wheatgerm, nuts and seeds; protects essential fatty acids from oxidation.
Vitamin K (K1 & K2) K2 – 150 mcg / day	Potent AO against heart disease and osteoporosis (activates osteocalcin – structural framework helps anchor calcium in bone); needed to clot blood (to convert prothrombin to thrombin); K1 form is in dark green leafy vegetables, brussels sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, liver, egg yolks, butter, grains, avocado, kiwi, cod liver oil; If supplementing, use K2 (form made by your intestinal bacteria) Vitamin K
CoQ10 Ubiquinol is active form (superior to ubiquinone). Typical dose – 100 mg /day; 200+mg /day (with health problems)	Supplement if over 40, also a vital supplement if taking statin drugs, which interfere with body’s manufacture of COQ10. Essential for energy production in cell mitochondria (heart uses high energy for pumping action and electrical function); powerful fat-soluble antioxidant; helps lower blood pressure: Mostly synthesized by body (but decreases with age), diet supplies ~10% – beef (8oz=>8mg), organ meats, sardines, mackerel. CoQ10 – Spark and Dampener
FIBER Do not eat isolated oat or wheat bran in any form (E.g. added to bread recipes or in bran cereals, such as Bran Buds®) -they are too high in phytate (an antinutrient)
FLAX SEED (Organic, Fresh-ground or cold-milled) 1-2 Tbsp /day	Absolutely the best way to achieve regularity!
