Background
Vitamin Research Products was launched in 1979, back when the life extension movement was just beginning to gather steam. People around the world were becoming interested in the concept of prolonging lifespan and improving general health with the help of specific nutrients, however there were not many resources available for high quality products.

Vitamin Research Products was started by a group of scientists who aimed to fill that void by developing high quality supplements with pharmaceutical grade nutrients. This was important, since many of the products on the market used low quality versions of nutrients that were not potent enough to have the desired positive effects on a person's health and longevity.

The scientists at Vitamin Research Products spent their time exploring the effects of different nutrients they had identified as possibly having a positive impact on health, developing products that they believed achieved their goals.

Extend Plus Multivitamin
Over the decades the products offered by Vitamin Research Products has grown to include over 400 items, each designed to target a specific health issue. There are supplements for hair, liver, bone & joint, digestion and blood sugar, just to name a few. In the next few lines, we will take a look at their award winning multivitamin, Extend Plus and what makes it stand out.

Over 2 grams of vitamin C that serves as one of the anti-oxidants, an optimal dose of natural vitamin E, and an ample amounts of B complex vitamins, trace minerals and a 1:1 ratio of calcium and magnesium all make Extend Plus a multi-nutrient formula with extended performance. As expected, it contains up to 20 types of various nutrients which are very important and constitutes the core of this Vitamin Research Product.

Apart from the available vitamins in Extend Plus, there are also other nutrients like lipoic acid in very healthy amounts, as well as, researched and important cellular protector, choline and taurine an important amino acid for extra cell protection and growth. Recommended Dosage: 4 capsules, 3 times a day with meals.

VRP also recently increased the amount of Vitamin D3 in its multivitamin. The need for adequate sunlight for proper synthesis of vitamin has lead to VRP developing several forms of Vitamin D fortified products. Researchers at Boston University conducted a review of the literature that exists on Vitamin D to put into perspective the many health benefits of vitamin D and the role of vitamin D deficiency in increasing the risk of many common and serious diseases, including type 1 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and osteoporosis.

Breastfed infants often suffer from Vitamin D deficiency if they do not receive vitamin D supplementation, leading to Rickets. In adults it manifest as increased skin pigmentation (such as Hispanics or African Americans). Adults who slather on the sunscreen before stepping outside and who limit their outdoor activities also are likely vitamin D deficient because the hydroxyl-cholecalciferol in the skin needs ultra-violet light from the sun to be converted into the active form of vitamin D. So Vitamin Research Products has put in a lot of time developing these products and they have truly served their purpose so far. Extend Plus, Optimum 18, Extend Ultra, and Optimum Silver all contain 800 IU of Vitamin D3.

Customers Comments
Finally, Vitamin Research Products has a reputation for high quality products among users of nutritional supplements. We are impressed by the scientific research that goes into developing the company's products and the fact that it does use fillers in their products and that they supply supplements in capsule form, not tablet, which is said to provide better absorption of the nutrients by the body.
