How to Switch Formulas

This is the transition schedule to use when switching between two of our Spectrum Support vitamin and mineral formulas, or to switch from another brand of vitamin supplement to ours. It is a gradual process, in which you will phase out the old formula while gradually starting the new one. To keep things simple, the suggested dosage for each body weight is the same for all Spectrum Support Formulas.

It is important to allow for a gradual transition between formulas to allow the body to better accommodate and utilize the new and higher doses of some of the nutrients in the upper tier formulas. This whole transition process takes 16 days, so be sure to have enough of your old formula on hand to accommodate for your needs for both formulas through the transition period.

Transition Schedule

Example:
If your child has been taking two teaspoons each of SSII liquid vitamins and minerals with each meal, and you wish to give the same dosage of SSIII, then your transition schedule would look like the one below.

If your child is taking a dose smaller than 1 teaspoon per meal, then we suggest that you begin with 1/8 teaspoon each of vitamins and minerals for the first four days, then 1/4 teaspoon for days five through eight, and then start increasing the new formula and decreasing the old formula according to the above schedule.
Adults should use the same transition process, to ensure optimal utilization.

Switching to Liquid-Caps
For all liquid-caps, one capsule is equal to 1 teaspoon of our liquids. Please start with 1 liquid-cap a day, in the morning of the new vitamins and minerals, and gradually increase to the full suggested dose, while gradually decreasing the dosage of the old ones over a two week period.
