Thorne - ResveraCel 60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Daily Greens Plus 204 grams of powder
Resveratrol
Resveratrol belongs to the salvestrols. Many different variants exist, of which resveratrol and pterostilbene are currently the best known and, as far as we know, most important. In low doses, resveratrol protects healthy cells and tissues and has a supportive effect on the heart.
Smeets en Graas - Astaxanthin 8 mg AstaPure 60 vegetarian softgels Nutrex - BioAstin Hawaiian Astaxanthin 6 mg 60 vegetarian softgels
Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is not a vitamin but a carotenoid, just like beta-carotene (from carrots). And so, as with beta-carotene, it is important to use only natural astaxanthin derived from the alga Haematococcus pluvialis.
Smeets en Graas - Vitamin C liposomal 250 ml Healthy Origins - Vitamin C 1000 mg 360 vegetarian capsules
Vitamin C
Contrary to popular belief, by no means all fruits are good sources of vitamin C. Apples and bananas, for example, are very poor sources. They contain only a few milligrams while one kiwi contains more than 100 mg.
Solgar - Vitamin D-3 4000 IU /100 mcg 60/120 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Vitamin D/K2 30 ml of oil
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D is one of the most important vitamins. But most of the vitamin D products available contain far too little vitamin D. 10 or 20 mcg (400 or 800 IU) per day is very little.
Thorne - Vitamin D/K2 30 ml of oil Thorne - Vitamin K 60 vegetarian capsules
Vitamin K2
Vitamin K is a group of structurally similar fat-soluble vitamins that the body requires for the complete synthesis of certain proteins needed for blood coagulation (clotting) and ensuring the binding of calcium in bones and other tissues.
Minami - MorEPA Platinum 60/120 gelatin softgels Smeets en Graas - Fish Oil EPA-DHA 60 fish gelatin softgels
Fish Oil
Fish oil is highly susceptible to oxidation. Both during production and in the supplements themselves, as well as in the body. Therefore, it is very important to choose non-oxidized and stable fish oil. All fish oil supplements in our range are of high to very high quality and stable.
Thorne - Basic Nutrients 2/Day 60/60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Basic Prenatal 90 vegetarian capsules
Multivitamins
Multivitamins with active nature-identical vitamins have not been around for a long time. Until a few years ago, only multivitamins with inactive vitamins existed. In particular, the B vitamins were the problem. These were not identical to the natural forms as they occur in our food, nor do they have the same effect.
Thorne - Curcumin Phytosome 1000 mg 60/120/120 vegetarian capsules Thorne - S.A.T. 60 vegetarian capsules
Turmeric
Two major limitations in the use of Curcuma capsules ("Turmeric") are the poor absorption of pure curcumin and its inactivation by the liver. With standard Curcuma extracts the active curcuminoids are both poorly absorbed in the intestines and partially deactivated by the liver.
Smeets en Graas - UBVit Ubiquinol 60 vegetarian softgels Jarrow Formulas - Ubiquinol QH-absorb 200 mg 30/60 gelatin softgels
Coenzyme Q10
Until a few years ago, there were only inactive coenzyme Q10 supplements (ubiquinone or ubiquinone). Fortunately for seniors, there is now active Q10 in the form of ubiquinol. Because the older we get, the more difficult it is for our bodies to convert ubiquinone (Q10) into the active ubiquinol. And if that conversion does not take place, it is of no use to us.
Thorne - Basic B Complex 60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Stress B-Complex 60 vegetarian capsules
Vitamin B-complex
Vitamin B complexes, like multivitamins, are almost always of poor quality. 99% of them contain both poor non-natural forms and have poor ratios between the different B vitamins.
Thorne - Zinc Picolinate 15 mg 60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Zinc Picolinate 30 mg 60/60/180 vegetarian capsules
Zinc
Although zinc is essential for the entire body, it is by far the most commonly used for the immune system. When you use it for your immune system, make sure you get enough vitamin D and C and possibly other immune system-supporting supplements.
Wedihemp - CBD Capsules Raw 27 mg (5%) 60 vegetarian capsules Cannamedic - CBD Capsules 6 mg 50 gelatin softgels
CBD Oil
Therefore, when buying CBD oil or capsules, do not look at the strength in percentages (%), but only at the number of milligrams (mg) of CBD per drop or capsule. Only then can you compare different supplements.
Thorne - Magnesium Bisglycinate 187 grams of powder Thorne - Magnesium CitraMate 90 vegetarian capsules
Magnesium
Magnesium in the forms (bis)glycinate, citrate, threonate and malate is very well absorbed. And of these 4, bisglycinate and threonate are the forms that cause the least amount of excessively thin stools.
Thorne - ResveraCel 60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Collagen Plus 495 grams of powder
Nicotinamide Riboside - NAD+
Nicotinamide Riboside is the newest form of vitamin B3. In our diet, vitamin B3 occurs in several forms: as niacin, niacinamide (nicotinamide) and as nicotinamide riboside. This last and most special form has only been available as a supplement for a few years. It has all the properties of the other forms of vitamin B3 and, in addition, it has some special properties that the other forms do not have.
Jarrow Formulas - Ashwagandha 120 vegetarian capsules Vitals - Mannenformule Pro Testosteron 60 vegetarian tablets
Ashwagandha
When buying an Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) supplement, make sure that it is a broad-spectrum extract, with a high concentration of active ingredients (mainly withanolides and, to a lesser extent, oligosaccharides). Broad-spectrum herbal extracts are often more effective than herbal extracts that contain only a few active ingredients without the rest of the herb's compounds. And it also greatly reduces the likelihood of side effects.
Jarrow Formulas - S-Acetyl L-Glutathione 60 tablets Healthy Origins - L-Glutathion Reduced 500 mg 60/150 vegetarian capsules
Glutathione
Glutathione is found in almost all body cells in high concentrations and has several important functions in cells. To perform these functions, it must be present in a so-called reduced form. In healthy cells, 90% is present in reduced form.
Thorne - Rhodiola 60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Emotion Balance Support 120 vegetarian capsules
Rhodiola Rosea
Rhodiola supports normal psychological function and contributes to normal energy metabolism. Concentrated Rhodiola is one of the best supplements to use for fatigue due to its contribution to normal adaptogenic function.
Healthy Origins - Lutein 20 mg 60/180 vegetarian softgels Jarrow Formulas - Lutein 20 mg 60/120 gelatin softgels
Lutein - Zeaxanthin
Natural Lutein and Zeaxanthin are carotenoids just like beta-carotene and astaxanthin, for example. But unlike the other carotenoids, they concentrate mainly in the eyes. Lutein is found in eggs, vegetables such as spinach, endive, kale and broccoli. Kiwi, grapes and orange are also rich in lutein, but it is found in fruits to a lesser extent than in vegetables.
Thorne - Methyl-Guard Plus 90 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Vitamin B12 60 vegetarian capsules
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is needed for the production of red blood cells and for proper functioning of the nervous system. Vitamin B12 is found only in animal products, such as milk, dairy products, meat, cold cuts, fish and eggs. In people who use little or no animal products, such as vegans, there is a high risk of vitamin B12 deficiency.
Thorne - Selenium 60 vegetarian capsules Solgar - Selenium 200 mcg 50/100/250 tablets
Selenium
Selenium supports the immune system, is essential for thyroid hormone production and contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage. Also, selenium is good for sperm quality, contributes to the maintenance of normal hair and to the maintenance of normal nails.
Thorne - ResveraCel 60 vegetarian capsules Thorne - Quercetin Phytosome 60 vegetarian capsules
Quercetin
Quercetin is found very widely in the plant kingdom. Consequently, it is the most abundant flavonoid molecule. One can find quercetin in apples, onions, tea, berries, certain vegetables and seeds and many nuts.
LifeExtension - Super R-Lipoic Acid 240 mg 60 vegetarian capsules Healthy Origins - Alpha Lipoic Acid 600 mg 60/150 vegetarian capsules
Alpha Lipoic Acid
Most (cheaper) supplements containing alpha lipoic acid consist of 50% R(+)-alpha lipoic acid (the natural, endogenous form) and 50% S(-)-alpha lipoic acid (the synthetic variety). The difference between the enantiomers R(+)- and S(-)-alphalipoic acid is their three-dimensional structure. Like the left and right hand, they are each other's mirror image.

At Smeets & Graas you will find only the highest quality nutritional supplements. Most of these supplements are not comparable to those found in drugstores, supermarkets, pharmacies and most health stores.

Strict Product and Brand Selection

Nutritional SupplementBecause of our strict product and brand selection, there is a good chance that you will not find a supplement you have purchased elsewhere on our website. Only the brands and/or individual supplements that are 100% reliable, pure and effective will be included in our selection. Many of the supplements you can buy from us contain patented ingredients. These patented ingredients are of very high quality.

They often have higher concentrations and a broader spectrum of active ingredients and are also very pure. In addition, with these ingredients, it is easy to find out where it is produced.

Attractive Discounts

With the discounts, we keep it simple and attractive: the more you order, the higher the discount. The maximum discount varies by brand but on most brands you can get up to 25% off. The product pages always clearly indicate the level of discount.

Natural Vitamins

Most of the vitamins and minerals you'll find at Smeets & Graas are the active, natural forms. These natural forms are more effective than the non-natural synthetic forms. And the chances of side effects are also significantly lower. By comparison, in supermarket, drugstore or pharmacy, it is difficult to find a multivitamin or single vitamin B6, vitamin B12 or vitamin E in the natural form. And with the brands known from TV or other advertising, this is completely out of the question.

Just Not Sick or Optimally Healthy?

Our vitamins often contain many times the RDA. The reason for this is simple: the RDA is an amount needed to stay just "healthy. Whereas the amount needed to be or become optimally healthy is often much greater.

Independent Verification

Smeets & Graas not only has a strict selection regarding brands and supplements, but we also check ourselves if the test data we receive from the products we import from the US are correct. We have these tests done by an independent Dutch laboratory. Our HACCP food safety system of which this is a part has also been checked and approved by the VWA.
