Survivall Seniors

Formulated supplementary sports food – Energy supplement for Seniors

Survivall Seniors is a new generation energy and fluid replacement supplement – especially effective when used in conjunction with an exercise program. The special formulation provides sustained levels of energy, helps avoid cramping and supplies mineral salts to maintain electrolyte balance and hydration.
Survivall Seniors has been developed to maintain the well-being of seniors.

As we grow older:-

• We tend to undertake less physical activity
• The body fluid content of our bodies begins to fall leading to dehydration
• Our sense of thirst diminishes

Survivall Seniors helps combat these factors by:

• Stimulating more physical activity
• Survivall Seniors contains a high level of pure glucose, the most readily available source of energy to fuel muscles
• Rehydrating the body by suppling essential mineral body salts (electrolytes) to maintain fluid balance
• Encouraging the consumption of more fluids because Survivall Seniors is a pleasant tasting drink with a delicious apple flavour.  It does not have a salty taste.  It does not contain preservatives or stimulants.

Mineral body sales (electrolytes) within body fluid systems

Survivall Seniors contains the scientific duplication of essential body salts (electrolytes) in the blood, muscle and body tissue systems. Without these essential mineral body salts, all living bodies cease to function properly.

Survivall Seniors incorporates a unique delivery system which closely relates to natural body requirements when under physical stress.

The function of mineral body salts:

1. Electrolytes are a major component within our body fluid systems which carry nutrients and oxygen to various tissues and organs to maintain life.
2. Electrolytes are used in the body for converting carbohydrate into glucose which is stored as glycogen in the liver or muscle cells as an energy source.
3. Electrolyte exchange between muscle tissue cells is responsible for the ability of the muscle tissues to function efficiently under a prolonged period of work.
4. Electrolytes maintain the body’s osmotic pressure and fluid content within each tissue cell compartment.
5. Electrolytes dispose of the body wastes generated from normal metabolism and by-products generated from stress or physical work.

The Function of Cell Buffer Systems

During muscular activity glucose is utilised as an energy source.  The by-product of glucose metabolism is lactic acid.  Accumulation of lactic acid within tissue cells is the major factor for tiring and lack of stamina to perform work continuously.

Cell buffer systems helps avoid the build up of lactic acid and allow the muscle to completely utilise the glucose stored in the muscles to produce energy for work performance.

Scientific experiments on muscle function have indicated when 25% of the stored glucose within a muscle tissue is used, the accumulation of lactic acid will prevent the muscle from performing work (cramping). When cell buffer systems are added muscles will resume work until all stored glucose is completely used.

Vitamins C and B6, supported with additional B vitamins

Both of these vitamins are essential for glucose metabolism which gives the body energy to work. In addition both vitamins detoxify the body waste generated from work and metabolism.
In day to day living the average adult will require 2 to 3 litres of water per day, viz 1 to 1.5L for perspiration and 1 to 1.5L for urine excretion.

Problems arise when a body is placed under abnormal stress, such as caused by exercising for long duration; disease symptoms such as fever, vomiting and diarrhoea and exposure to a hot climate, all of which can cause copious loss of water and electrolytes.

Dehydration severely limits subsequent sweating, places dangerous demands on circulation, reduces exercise capacity and exposes the participant to health hazards associated with hyperthermia, such as heat stroke, heat exhaustion and muscular cramps.
Such fluid and concomitant electrolyte losses need to be replaced quickly and efficiently if decrements to performance and health are to be avoided.

Selenium

Selenium is an essential nutrient obtained from food.  However selenium is often in short supply in Australian and New Zealand soil and animal feeds. Besides its many nutritional and medical benefits selenium has been shown to improve mood and decrease anxiety. Trials have also shown that optimal selenium intake becomes increasingly important in the latter decades of life.

Survivall Seniors improves health and well being by:-

1. Providing a high level of pure glucose, the most readily available source of energy to fuel muscles
2. Hydrating the muscular cells with the proper proportions (quality and quantity) of mineral body salts
3. Delivering high potassium loading into muscular cells
4. Supplying sufficient sodium to extracellular fluid
5. Delivering quality and quantity of cell buffers to muscles
6. Elimination of soluble ammonia waste through urine (detoxification)
7. Having a pleasant apple flavour without being salty

Survivall Seniors has the following attributes:-

1. Quickly absorbed (≤ 30-40 minutes mouth to muscle)
2. Helps avoid the build up of lactic acid which causes cramping
3. Disposes of metabolic waste (≤ 30-45 minutes)
4. Contains no stimulants
5. Contains no preservatives
6. May be consumed hot or cold
7. Promotes a feeling of wellbeing

Survivall Seniors Sports Supplement is a food product which complies with the Formulated Supplementary Sports Foods Standard. This Standard defines and regulates the composition and labelling of foods especially formulated to assist sports people in achieving specific nutritional or performance goals.
