Why You Need Phytonutrients—and How Tri-Core Essentials Makes It Easy

Plus: How Men’s and Women’s Daily 7 Essentials Deliver Everyday Plant-Based Support

In today’s world, eating a colorful, whole-food-rich diet is one of the most powerful ways to support your long-term health. But let’s face it—getting all the nutrients your body needs from diet alone can be a real challenge, especially when life gets busy. That’s where phytonutrients come in—and why you’ll find them at the heart of our most advanced supplements: Tri-Core Essentials, Men’s Daily 7 Essentials, and Women’s Daily 7 Essentials.

But what are phytonutrients, and why should you care about them?

What Are Phytonutrients?

Phytonutrients (also called phytochemicals) are natural compounds found in plants—fruits, vegetables, herbs, teas, and spices—that support various functions in the human body. Unlike vitamins and minerals, phytonutrients aren’t technically “essential,” but research shows they may play a significant role in:

• Neutralizing free radicals (antioxidant support)

• Supporting immune health

• Promoting cardiovascular wellness

• Enhancing cellular repair and communication

There are over 25,000 known phytonutrients, many of which you consume every time you eat colorful plant foods like berries, spinach, broccoli, turmeric, and more.

Why It’s Hard to Get Enough Phytonutrients from Food Alone

Even if you eat well, you might still fall short on phytonutrient diversity due to:

• Modern farming practices that deplete soil nutrients

• Eating the same fruits and veggies week after week

• Lack of access to fresh, organic produce year-round

• Busy schedules that make fast, processed food more convenient

That’s why 2nd Springs has prioritized plant-based blends in our core supplements—so you can fill in the gaps and feel confident you’re getting broad-spectrum support, every day.

The 45-Fruit and Vegetable Blend in Tri-Core Essentials

Our flagship multivitamin, Tri-Core Essentials, contains a robust proprietary blend of 45 fruits, vegetables, herbs, and greens, providing a wide range of phytonutrients in a convenient 3-a-day format.

This includes:

• Superfruits: Blueberry, Acai, Elderberry, Cranberry, Maqui Berry, and Goji—packed with anthocyanins and polyphenols that offer antioxidant protection

• Leafy greens & veggies: Spinach, Kale, Broccoli, Carrot, Beet, and Barley Grass for carotenoids and fiber

• Anti-inflammatory herbs: Turmeric, Ginger, Green Tea, and Milk Thistle to support resilience

• Rare botanicals: Ashitaba, Chokeberry, and Asian Pear for diverse phytonutrient profiles

This phytonutrient-rich blend is part of what makes Tri-Core Essentials ideal for athletes, busy professionals, and anyone seeking total-body wellness.

Men’s & Women’s Daily 7 Essentials: Everyday Phytonutrient Support

For those seeking a simple 1-a-day multivitamin, Men’s Daily 7 Essentials and Women’s Daily 7 Essentials both offer a foundational blend of whole food nutrients and natural plant extracts to support daily performance, immunity, and energy.

Though smaller in scope than Tri-Core’s 45-blend, these Daily 7 formulas still include antioxidant-rich ingredients and plant-based compounds to support:

• Men’s needs – including heart, metabolism, and prostate support

• Women’s needs – including bone, skin, and hormonal balance

By incorporating targeted phytonutrient support, these formulas are ideal for anyone looking to maintain health with a simpler, once-daily routine.

Why Phytonutrients Matter Now More Than Ever

As we age, our bodies face increasing stress from our environment, lifestyle, and diet. Phytonutrients help combat this stress at a cellular level by:

• Supporting detoxification pathways

• Assisting healthy inflammation response

• Enhancing recovery from exercise or daily physical strain

• Protecting against oxidative damage

When combined with essential vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and adaptogens—as seen in Tri-Core Essentials—phytonutrients become a key player in the pursuit of lasting vitality.
