Catalyn was developed in 1929 by Dr. Royal Lee of Standard Process. It was created to fill in the gaps in nutrition He chose the name Catalyn to reflect the product’s catalytic effects, since the vitamin, mineral, and enzyme complexes found in Catalyn work as organic catalysts.
Catalyn is the complete opposite of the “mega-dose” theory of vital nutrient supplementation. Instead of providing large doses of fractionated vitamins or minerals, Dr. Lee chose the more wholistic approach.
When nutrients are kept in their complete form during processing, they are not isolated from their natural synergists. For example, vitamin C contains ascorbic acid, but ascorbic acid is only part of vitamin C complex. It was known over a half-century ago that attempting to separate nutrients greatly reduces their strength. “Natural forms of vitamins may lose up to ninety-nine percent of their potency when separated from their natural synergists.

Catalyn is a great choice to start any nutritional program.
