What is Vita Energy Complex for men?
Vita Energy Complex for men is a food supplement in capsule form. The manufacturer is Vita Health Care AG, a Swiss manufacturer based in Basel. The product is made in Switzerland. The manufacturer describes it as a combination of selected micronutrients for the active man.
The formula combines five groups of ingredients: vitamins and minerals, the amino acids L-arginine and L-carnitine, coenzyme Q10, the carotenoids astaxanthin and lycopene, and extracts from pine bark, pomegranate, maca, saffron, ginger and black pepper. In total, 18 ingredients are listed with their amounts in the nutrition table. All information refers to the daily serving of 3 capsules. This allows you to look up every amount directly and compare it with preparations you may already be taking.
The ingredients at a glance
The following table shows all ingredients according to the manufacturer. A nutrient reference value (NRV) only exists for vitamins and minerals. For the other substances, only the amount is therefore given.
| Group | Ingredient | Amount per daily serving (3 capsules) |
|---|---|---|
| Amino acids | L-arginine | 1000 mg |
| Amino acids | L-carnitine | 80 mg |
| Plant extracts | Pine bark extract with OPC | 120 mg |
| Plant extracts | Pomegranate extract | 40 mg |
| Plant extracts | Maca extract | 40 mg |
| Plant extracts | Saffron extract | 10 mg |
| Plant extracts | Ginger extract | 5 mg |
| Plant extracts | Pepper extract | 5 mg |
| Carotenoids | Astaxanthin | 4 mg |
| Carotenoids | Lycopene | 6 mg |
| Vitamin-like substance | Coenzyme Q10 | 50 mg |
| Vitamins | Vitamin D3 | 20 µg (400% NRV) |
| Vitamins | Vitamin B6 | 4.2 mg (300% NRV) |
| Vitamins | Folic acid | 200 µg (100% NRV) |
| Vitamins | Vitamin B12 | 9 µg (360% NRV) |
| Minerals | Zinc | 5 mg (50% NRV) |
| Minerals | Manganese | 2 mg (100% NRV) |
| Minerals | Selenium | 55 µg (100% NRV) |
How to read the nutrition table
The table states every amount per daily serving, i.e. for 3 capsules together. A single capsule accordingly contains one third of this. Pay attention to the units: a milligram (mg) is one thousandth of a gram, a microgram (µg) one thousandth of a milligram. 20 µg of vitamin D3 is therefore a much smaller amount than 20 mg.
The percentage in brackets refers to the nutrient reference value (NRV). This is a benchmark laid down by EU food law for labelling. It makes different products comparable, but is not a personal recommendation. A value above 100% only means that the amount is above this benchmark, and is not in itself a mark of quality.
You can read what lies behind the amino acids, coenzyme Q10 and the plant extracts in the article L-arginine, OPC, coenzyme Q10 and plant extracts explained.
Who is the product intended for?
Vita Energy Complex for men is aimed at men who want to supplement their diet in a targeted way. The manufacturer speaks of a specific combination for health-conscious men or those who want to become so. The following applies: the product should not be used as a substitute for a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle. The manufacturer expressly gives this note.
Because of the astaxanthin from the alga Haematococcus pluvialis, the product is not suitable for children and adolescents under 10 years of age. If you take medication regularly or already use other food supplements, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking it. For women, there is a separate formula, Vita Energy Complex for women. You can find more products for men in the category for men.
Which health claims are authorised
In the EU, there are authorised health claims for vitamins and minerals. They may only be used if a daily serving supplies at least 15% of the reference value. All seven vitamins and minerals in Vita Energy Complex for men meet this condition. Some examples:
- Zinc contributes to the maintenance of normal testosterone levels in the blood.
- Selenium contributes to normal spermatogenesis.
- Vitamin B6 contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.
- Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function.
- Vitamin B12 contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
There are no authorised health claims for L-arginine, L-carnitine, coenzyme Q10, astaxanthin, lycopene and the plant extracts. We therefore only describe these substances and state their amounts. You will not find any promises from us that go beyond the authorised wording.
