What it is
The most advanced daily pack in the LifePak family, delivered as a twin sachet of softgels and capsules taken twice a day. It layers a broad vitamin-and-mineral base (including well-dosed calcium, magnesium, vitamin D, and K) with 60-plus antioxidants -- among them TeGreen catechins, alpha-lipoic acid, resveratrol, a full vitamin E complex, and six carotenoids -- plus NanoCoQ10 and a serving of EPA and DHA equal to Marine Omega. It is its own distinct formula, not interchangeable with standard LifePak or LifePak Elements.
Why the evidence supports it
The evidence case for a pack like this is coverage across an antioxidant network rather than a megadose of any one nutrient -- research on the LifePak approach has looked at antioxidant status and how resistant LDL particles are to oxidation, and broad-spectrum nutrition studies consistently find that correcting a spread of small shortfalls does more for baseline cellular function than loading a single ingredient. The nano and liponutrient delivery is built to solve the real problem that fat-soluble nutrients like carotenoids and CoQ10 absorb poorly. As with any comprehensive pack, its value is highest when it is filling genuine dietary gaps, and on that footing it is the evidence-based way to support the cell's Build function -- the raw vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and membrane fats cells use to construct and protect their own structures.
What it supports
- Provides a broad base of everyday vitamins and minerals
- Supports the body's normal antioxidant defenses
- Provides omega-3s that feed the cell membrane
- Supports healthy cellular energy and everyday nutritional status
Which function it supports
Ties to the cell's Build function -- giving cells the raw vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and membrane fats they use to construct and protect their own structures.

If you have had labs done
These are lab markers where this product's ingredients have measured evidence in our citation library. This is not a claim that the product will change your results -- the research attaches to the ingredient, and what a marker means depends on the whole picture. Each one links to its full entry, including what typically moves it and how to read it.
via Vitamin D · 795 studies, 345 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: ⚠️ Toxicity risk is hypercalcaemia and kidney stones.
Lower: The general deficiency picture -- fatigue, aching bones and muscles, low mood worse in winter, frequent illness, hair loss, slow healing.
- Seleniumsolid evidence
via Selenium · 1,083 studies, 259 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A garlic smell on the breath with no garlic eaten -- the classic early sign.
Lower: Frequent infections and slow recovery from them -- selenium is required by the immune system's antioxidant defences.
- Zincsolid evidence
via Selenium · 261 studies, 72 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Nausea and metallic taste at high oral doses.
Lower: Frequent colds that last longer than everyone else's.
- Zincsolid evidence
via Selenium · 261 studies, 72 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: For the full symptom picture in both directions, read the main zinc entry -- it is the same measurement, and repeating it here would only risk the two drifting apart.
- Omega-3/Omega-6 Fatty Acid Panel (EPA, DHA, DPA, Arachidonic Acid, Linoleic Acid, Ratios)solid evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 102 studies, 42 in people
The only thing that reliably raises the omega-3 index, because the index measures them.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Very high intakes: easier bruising, longer bleeding from small cuts, and a fishy aftertaste or reflux.
Lower: Dry, rough or bumpy skin on the backs of the arms; dry eyes; dry, brittle hair.
- Ferritin, Iron, Iron Saturation & TIBCsolid evidence
via Vitamin C · 100 studies, 23 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Often SILENT for years, which is what makes iron overload dangerous.
Lower: Fatigue that rest does not fix -- and it appears at LOW FERRITIN, long before haemoglobin falls or anaemia exists.
- Calciumsolid evidence
via Vitamin D · 56 studies, 22 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: "Bones, stones, groans and psychic moans" -- the old teaching phrase, and still the best summary: bone pain, kidney stones, abdominal pain and constipation, low mood and confusion.
Lower: Tingling around the mouth and in the fingers and toes.
- Calciumsolid evidence
via Vitamin D · 56 studies, 22 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high serum calcium needs clinical work-up -- causes include parathyroid, vitamin D and kidney issues -- not a supplement adjustment.
- Triglyceridessolid evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 24 studies, 19 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: High triglycerides are usually silent and travel with the insulin-resistant pattern -- central weight gain, energy crashes after carb-heavy meals, a low HDL.
Lower: Low triglycerides are generally not a concern and often reflect good metabolic health.
- Triglyceridessolid evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 24 studies, 19 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A non-fasting draw or recent alcohol inflates the number -- confirm a true fasting sample before acting on a borderline value.
Lower: Low triglycerides are generally not a concern and often reflect good metabolic health and insulin sensitivity.
- Triglyceride : HDL Ratio (calculated -- a derived value)solid evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 24 studies, 19 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: A low ratio suggests good insulin sensitivity -- the favourable direction.
via EPA (Omega-3) · 24 studies, 19 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: The TyG index is a calculated insulin-resistance marker built from fasting triglycerides and fasting glucose -- a derived number, not a felt symptom.
Lower: A lower TyG index (within a population) is the favourable direction -- the validating studies read it as higher-versus-lower, not against a fixed line.
- Thyroglobulin Antibodies (TgAb)solid evidence
via Selenium · 31 studies, 17 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Often NONE for years. Antibodies commonly precede any change in TSH or in how someone feels by a long time -- which is the argument for measuring them early rather than waiting.
Lower: Negative antibodies are the desired result and carry no symptoms.
- Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPOAb)solid evidence
via Selenium · 31 studies, 17 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Often NONE for years -- antibodies commonly precede any change in TSH or in how someone feels by a long time.
Lower: Negative antibodies are the desired result.
- Thyroglobulin Antibodies (TgAb)solid evidence
via Selenium · 31 studies, 17 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Same picture as TPO antibodies -- frequently silent for years, then the hypothyroid symptoms appearing while TSH still reads normal.
Lower: Negative is the desired result.
via Selenium · 31 studies, 17 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: In an autoimmune panel these are here because THYROID AUTOIMMUNITY IS THE COMMONEST AUTOIMMUNE CONDITION THERE IS, and it clusters with everything else on this panel.
Lower: Negative is the desired result.
- TSH -- Fertility-Specific Interpretationsolid evidence
via Selenium · 31 studies, 17 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: The hypothyroid picture -- cold, fatigue, fog, constipation, dry skin, hair thinning -- plus the fertility-specific ones: heavier or longer periods, anovulatory cycles, and reduced fertility.
Lower: Overactive thyroid also disrupts cycles and fertility, and needs treating rather than tolerating.
- Mercurysolid evidence
via Selenium · 114 studies, 15 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Often silent at dietary levels.
Lower: No symptoms. Mercury has no biological function -- there is no deficiency.
- Magnesiumsolid evidence
via Vitamin D · 41 studies, 14 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Almost always caused by supplements plus reduced kidney function, not by food.
Lower: Muscle cramps, especially calves at night; eyelid twitching that goes on for days.
- Estradiol, FSH, LH, Prolactin, DHEA-S & Testosteronesolid evidence
via Vitamin D · 28 studies, 14 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: HIGH FSH with low oestradiol is the menopause transition signal.
Lower: Joint aches that appeared with no injury; skin and hair changing texture.
- Estradiol (E2)solid evidence
via Vitamin D · 28 studies, 14 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Breast tenderness, heavy or painful periods, fluid retention, worsening premenstrual mood, headaches around the period.
Lower: Vaginal dryness, painful sex, poor sleep, low mood, hot flushes, brain fog and word-finding difficulty.
- Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH)solid evidence
via Selenium · 18 studies, 11 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Cold all the time, especially hands and feet, and needing more layers than everyone else in the room.
Lower: Racing or irregular heartbeat, palpitations, waking at night with the heart pounding.
- Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH)solid evidence
via Selenium · 18 studies, 11 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: HIGH TSH = UNDERACTIVE THYROID -- the counterintuitive part people get wrong constantly.
Lower: LOW TSH = OVERACTIVE THYROID, or too much thyroid medication -- the commoner cause in anyone already treated.
- Free T3 : Reverse T3 Ratiosolid evidence
via Selenium · 18 studies, 11 in people
The deiodinases that convert T4 to T3 are selenoproteins; zinc is required for their activity and for receptor binding; thyroid peroxidase is a haem enzyme.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: No recognised significance.
Lower: The claim: a low free T3 to reverse T3 ratio means T4 is being routed to the inactive form, producing hypothyroid symptoms with normal standard labs -- cold, fatigue, fog, weight gain.
- White Blood Cell Count & Differentialsolid evidence
via Vitamin C · 14 studies, 10 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Usually an active infection -- fever, feeling unwell, a specific site that hurts.
Lower: Frequent or lingering infections; mouth ulcers; slow recovery.
- High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP)solid evidence
via Vitamin D · 9 studies, 8 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Deep, unrefreshing fatigue -- searched as 'tired all the time blood tests normal' and 'why am i tired even after 8 hours sleep'.
Lower: No symptoms. Low is the desirable direction.
- High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP)solid evidence
via Vitamin D · 9 studies, 8 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Poor recovery from ordinary exertion; getting ill more easily.
Lower: Low is the desired direction.
- High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hs-CRP)solid evidence
via Vitamin D · 9 studies, 8 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Deep unrefreshing fatigue, migrating aching, brain fog, low mood with no situational cause, poor recovery -- all of which overlap the perimenopause symptom list almost exactly.
Lower: Low is the desired direction.

Lower: The hypothyroid picture EVEN WHEN TSH READS NORMAL -- cold, flat, foggy, constipated, dry-skinned, losing hair.
- Uric Acidsolid evidence
via Vitamin C · 20 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Sudden severe pain, redness and swelling in one joint -- classically the base of the big toe, often starting overnight.

- Anti-Cyclic Citrullinated Peptide (Anti-CCP / ACPA)emerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 795 studies, 345 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Symmetrical small-joint pain and swelling -- both hands, both wrists -- with morning stiffness lasting more than about an hour and easing with movement.
- Immunoglobulin E (IgE), Total and Allergen-Specificemerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 795 studies, 345 in people
Reasonable to correct a deficiency on its own merits.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Hay fever, allergic rhinitis, itchy watery eyes.
Lower: Normal, and a normal total IgE does not exclude allergy.
- Sperm Motility (Total & Progressive)emerging evidence
via DHA (Omega-3) · 355 studies, 205 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: Silent. Found only on semen analysis.
- Omega-3 Fatty Acids (Gut/Microbiome)emerging evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 223 studies, 86 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: An intervention entry. In the gut context the claim is that omega-3s support barrier function and shift the microbiome toward SCFA-producing genera.
- Polyphenols (Gut Barrier)emerging evidence
via Green tea catechins/EGCG · 81 studies, 19 in people
- Magnesiumemerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 41 studies, 14 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Because muscle-meat and refined foods are low in magnesium, shortfall is common on modern diets.
Lower: A high serum magnesium is rare and almost always tied to impaired kidney function (weakness, low blood pressure) -- a medical finding, since magnesium is renally cleared.
- Magnesiumemerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 41 studies, 14 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high serum magnesium is rare and almost always tied to impaired kidney function (weakness, low blood pressure) -- a medical finding, since magnesium is renally cleared.
- ANA Screen, Titer & Pattern; Rheumatoid Factoremerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 43 studies, 9 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Joint pain and stiffness that is WORSE IN THE MORNING and eases with movement -- the opposite of mechanical wear, which worsens through the day.
Lower: A negative result is the expected one and carries no symptoms.
- Uric Acidemerging evidence
via Vitamin C · 20 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: A low-within-range uric acid is generally viewed as more favourable for vascular and kidney load -- though that is a mechanistic read, not a validated target.
- Leademerging evidence
via Selenium · 11 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: In adults, usually SILENT at the levels now common.
Lower: No symptoms. Lead has no biological function -- there is no deficiency, and lower is always better.
- hs-CRP (High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein)emerging evidence
via Vitamin E · 5 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high hs-CRP reflects low-grade inflammation SOMEWHERE -- you tend to feel the underlying cause (a cold, a flare, a sore joint, poor sleep, extra weight) rather than the CRP itself.
Lower: A low hs-CRP is favourable and simply reflects little systemic inflammation at the moment of the draw.
- hs-CRP (High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein)emerging evidence
via Vitamin E · 5 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: hs-CRP is non-specific -- read it as a trend and in context, never as a stand-alone verdict.
Lower: A low hs-CRP is favourable and simply reflects little systemic inflammation at the moment of the draw.
- Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Total, Free & Percent Freeemerging evidence
via Green tea catechins/EGCG · 6 studies, 3 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Frequently NOTHING -- which is the entire reason PSA is measured rather than waited for.
Lower: No symptoms. ⚠️ Note that finasteride and dutasteride roughly HALVE PSA -- a result on either must be doubled to be interpreted, and forgetting this hides real findings.
- Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA)emerging evidence
via Green tea catechins/EGCG · 6 studies, 3 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Frequently NOTHING -- which is the entire reason PSA is measured rather than waited for.
Lower: ⚠️ Finasteride and dutasteride roughly HALVE PSA.
- eGFR, Creatinine & BUNemerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 7 studies, 2 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Later: swelling in ankles and around the eyes, foamy urine, fatigue, poor appetite, itching, night urination, high blood pressure.
Lower: A low creatinine usually reflects low muscle mass rather than excellent kidneys, and in older adults it can hide meaningfully reduced filtration.
- Leptinemerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 5 studies, 2 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Hunger that does not switch off after an adequate meal -- the signal is present but not being heard.
Lower: Persistent hunger, cold hands and feet, low mood and stalled menstrual cycles -- the low-energy-availability pattern seen in restrictive eating and in over-training.
via Selenium · 5 studies, 2 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Eye changes -- gritty, bulging or aching eyes, double vision, lid retraction.
Lower: A negative result is the expected one and carries no symptoms.
- Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH)emerging evidence
via CoQ10 · 3 studies, 2 in people
Systematic review and meta-analysis of 6 RCTs in 1,529 patients with diminished ovarian reserve.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: No symptoms at all in most cases -- AMH is a count of remaining follicles, not a hormone with felt effects, and cycles are usually still perfectly regular when it is low.
- HDL Cholesterolemerging evidence
via Astaxanthin · 2 studies, 2 in people
Supplementation measured on glycaemic control and lipid profile together in human trials.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Silent, and NOT automatically good news.
Lower: Silent. HDL produces no sensation at any level.
- Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH)emerging evidence
via CoQ10 · 2 studies, 2 in people
Systematic review and meta-analysis of 6 RCTs in 1,529 patients with diminished ovarian reserve.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: No symptoms in most cases -- AMH counts remaining follicles, and cycles are usually still regular when it is low.
- Glucose (Fasting)emerging evidence
via Alpha-lipoic acid · 11 studies, 1 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Waking at 3am, often with a racing heart -- 'why do i wake up at 3am every night'.
Lower: Shakiness, sweating, sudden anxiety and difficulty concentrating that resolve within minutes of eating.
- HOMA-IR (calculated -- a derived value, not a measured one)emerging evidence
via Alpha-lipoic acid · 11 studies, 1 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Because it is built from fasting insulin, it carries that assay's variability -- interpret the trend on one lab, not an absolute number.
Lower: A low HOMA-IR (roughly under 2.0) is commonly read as insulin-sensitive -- the favourable direction, though the cutoff is population-dependent.
- Urinalysis (Appearance, pH, Specific Gravity, Protein, Glucose, Ketones, Blood & Microscopic Findings)emerging evidence
via Vitamin D · 4 studies, 1 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: KETONES: fasting, low-carbohydrate eating, or illness.
- Bone Health: DEXA / T-score, CTX, P1NPmixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 795 studies, 345 in people
Required for intestinal calcium absorption.
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high T-score is favourable; very high values occasionally reflect degenerative change in the spine artificially inflating the reading.
Lower: Bone loss is SILENT until a fracture.
- Vitamin D, Calcium, and Parathyroid Hormone (PTH)mixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 795 studies, 345 in people
[SOLID for correcting a true deficiency, EMERGING/mixed for fracture prevention at low doses in already-replete women].
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: CALCIUM LOW: tingling around the mouth and in fingers, muscle cramps and twitching, irritability.
- LDL-C (LDL Cholesterol)mixed evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 24 studies, 19 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high LDL-C is an ESTIMATE that a lot of cholesterol cargo is riding in your LDL particles.
Lower: A low LDL-C is generally favourable, but on its own it is a start, not an answer -- pair it with ApoB to know the real particle burden.
- Non-HDL Cholesterolmixed evidence
via EPA (Omega-3) · 24 studies, 19 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Lower: A low non-HDL is favourable and, unlike calculated LDL-C, stays reliable even when triglycerides are high.
- Fasting Insulinmixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 13 studies, 6 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high fasting insulin is one of the EARLIEST signals of insulin resistance -- insulin climbs to keep glucose normal for years before glucose itself rises.
Lower: A low fasting insulin, with a normal glucose, generally reflects good insulin sensitivity -- the favourable direction.
- Fasting Glucosemixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 13 studies, 6 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high fasting glucose is often silent early -- the classic high-sugar symptoms (excess thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, blurred vision) tend to appear later and higher.
Lower: A genuinely low glucose (hypoglycaemia) can cause shakiness, sweating, irritability, hunger and lightheadedness -- but a low-normal fasting value in a healthy person is usually favourable.
- Fasting Insulinmixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 13 studies, 6 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Must be drawn fasting to be interpretable, and read alongside glucose (as HOMA-IR), never in isolation.
Lower: A low fasting insulin, with a normal glucose, generally reflects good insulin sensitivity -- the favourable direction.
- Fasting Glucosemixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 13 studies, 6 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: A high fasting glucose is often silent early -- the classic high-sugar symptoms (excess thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, blurred vision) tend to appear later and higher.
Lower: A genuinely low glucose (hypoglycaemia) can cause shakiness, sweating, irritability, hunger and lightheadedness -- but a low-normal fasting value in a healthy person is usually favourable.
- Complement C3 and C4mixed evidence
via Vitamin D · 9 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: C3 and C4 are acute-phase proteins and rise with ordinary inflammation and infection.
Lower: Persistently low complement with recurrent bacterial infections may instead indicate an inherited deficiency.
- ALT & AST (Liver Enzymes)mixed evidence
via Vitamin E · 7 studies, 5 in people
What people often notice when this marker sits outside the usual range
Higher: Fatigue disproportionate to activity is the commonest complaint that turns out to have a raised ALT behind it.

No product works in isolation
Every cell function above -- Sense, Exchange, Transform, Build, Maintain, Adapt -- needs the same broad base of optimal micronutrient levels running underneath it, all the time. LifePak Nano is not a stand-alone fix; it is one piece that plugs into that larger system. The foundation comes first, and this supports it.
Stacks well with
Pick your goal -- here is what LifePak Nano pairs with for each. Nothing works in isolation; these share the same systems.

Foundational, or targeted?
Not everything in the shop is meant to be taken forever. Some products here are foundational -- a daily nutrient base built for long-term, ongoing use. Others are targeted -- shorter-term support for a specific season, not a lifelong habit. If you are not sure which one this is, that is a fair question to ask us before you buy.

LifePak Nano is the advanced daily pack in the LifePak family, formulated with a nano-carrier delivery approach and providing a broad base of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants such as alpha-lipoic acid and CoQ10, and EPA plus DHA. It is a distinct formula from standard LifePak, so do not assume it is identical. It fits people wanting a comprehensive daily foundation.
FAQ
What does LifePak Nano support?
It provides a broad base of everyday vitamins and minerals, supports the body's normal antioxidant defenses, provides omega-3s that feed the cell membrane, and supports healthy cellular energy and everyday nutritional status.
How do I take it?
Take the daily two-packet serving with meals and a little fat so the fat-soluble nutrients absorb well. Splitting the packets across two meals is fine. Follow the current label.
What makes it different?
It is its own formula in the LifePak line, not interchangeable with the others, and uses a nano-carrier delivery approach. Its value is highest when it covers real gaps rather than doubling up on what you already get.
