Hear how our unique wax matrix technology works from our President Joe Brunner:
What This Means For You In Simpler Terms:
Reduces niacin (nicotinic acid)-related flushing
Cost-effective with fewer nutrients lost through urine
Eliminates the need for multiple, daily doses
Free from solvents, cellulose, sugar coatings, starch, and artificial colors
What are controlled-release vitamins and supplements?
How does this differ from regular vitamins and supplements?
Immediate-Release Products
are true to their name. The vitamin is released soon after the tablet is ingested, and it works quickly over a short period of time. With this type of vitamin, you sometimes have to take multiple doses to ensure a constant supply. You may also experience drops in the content of the vitamin in your body between doses (but we’ve already thought about that with the supplements where that matters, so if you see immediate release products here, it’s okay!)
This form of release is a valid and necessary form for many types of supplements and medication. While it is not the most effective for long-term absorption, not every vitamin or supplement needs to be long-term or slow-release. This is something that is specific to the purpose and chemical makeup of each supplement.
Sustained-Release Products
Sustained-Release Products are a type of medication or supplement designed to gradually release its contents into your system over a certain period of time.
These systems can maintain a constant vitamin concentration over a prolonged period, reducing the frequency of dosing, minimizing side effects, and enhancing the efficacy of the dosage. They can be especially useful in keeping a constant level of a vitamin or supplement in your bloodstream.
By reducing the number of doses needed to keep that consistent level, these types of tablets can improve patient compliance with their vitamin and supplement regimen. For those out there who struggle to remember to take their vitamins consistently, this technology is there to help you! It can also reduce the effects that can occur when vitamin levels peak and trough, which happens with immediate-release formulations.
All of Endurance Product Company’s water-soluble vitamins, like B complexes, C, and electrolytes are sustained-release.
This means that you’re less likely to lose unabsorbed vitamins and minerals through your urine, which is a common occurrence for these essential supplements with immediate-release formula.
The design of sustained-release tablets can vary. Some use different coatings, like we do with our unique wax matrix. This is what makes our vitamins and supplements more effective at keeping you strong, healthy, and vitalized.

What is a wax matrix, and why are you so excited about it?
We’re thrilled that you asked. It’s one of our many favorite things about our products.
The unique proprietary vegetable wax matrix is a coating on our vitamins and supplements that allows nutrients to be released slowly and steadily over several hours, mimicking the natural digestion process. This is what enables our supplements to be sustained-release.
The wax enhances nutrient absorption and retention while minimizing side effects like digestive upset. All of this is done with a cold-extrusion process (which just means we don’t heat up our products, we don’t moisten them, and we don’t use any other solvents) to maintain the stability and potency of the supplements. This process eliminates the need for artificial coatings.
The result? A cleaner, more natural product for you.
