Vitamin B6

• Vitamin B6 supports more vital bodily functions than any other vitamin
• It is vital in the metabolism of amino acids in the intestines. It allows the amino acids to be synthesized, broken down and absorbed
• The forming of histamine, serotonin, dopamine and adrenaline are dependent on vitamin B6
• Vitamin B6 helps to maintain healthy immune system functions, to protect the heart from cholesterol deposits, and to prevent kidney stone formation
• Vitamin B6 is indicated for the treatment of anemia, neurologic disturbances, seborrhoeic dermatitis, and cheilosis
• In combination with folic acid and vitamin B12, vitamin B6 lowers homocysteine levels which is an amino acid linked to heart disease and stroke, and possibly other diseases as well, such as osteoporosis, and Alzheimer’s disease
• Pyridoxine is required for the balancing of hormonal changes in women as well as assisting the immune system and the growth of new cells

Vitamin B1

• Thiamine works with the other B vitamins to change protein, carbohydrate, and fat to energy. It is especially vital for changing carbohydrates to energy. It is a key factor in the healthy functioning of all the body’s cells, especially the nerves
• Vitamin B1 helps the body cells convert carbohydrates into energy. It is also essential for the functioning of the heart, muscles, and nervous system. As a coenzyme, thiamin plays a key role in energy production, conversion of glucose to fat. Every cell of the body requires vitamin B1 to form the fuel the body runs on — ATP. Nerve cells require vitamin B1 in order to function normally
• Thiamin is needed for the metabolism of carbohydrates, fat, and protein. It is especially involved in carbohydrate metabolism in the brain
• Thiamin may be used to support nerve health, and minimize numbness and tingling, helping to protect against this condition
• Thiamine aids the nervous system and is essential for the functioning of important enzymes. These enzymes have vital roles in the processes that make energy available in the body. Thiamine is essential for the transmission of certain types of nerve signal between the brain and the spinal cord
• Depression, poor memory, muscle weakness and stiffness, nerve tingling, burning sensation and numbness, tiredness, headache, loss of appetite and nausea are some of the symptoms and signs of its deficiency

Vitamin B9(Folic acid)

• Folic acid plays an essential role in human growth and development, in particular cell division and DNA synthesis
• Folic acid is involved in every bodily function that requires cell division
• Folic acid works along with vitamin B12 and vitamin C to help the body digest and utilize proteins and to synthesize new proteins when they are needed
• Folic acid is important for any stage of human life which involves growth such as pregnancy, lactation and early growth because of the role the folate plays in DNA, RNA and protein production
• Folic acid is indicated for the prevention of some birth defects and appears to confer significant protection against cardiovascular disease and some forms of cancer
• Folic acid may be used in the treatment of disorders associated with folic acid deficiency and may also be part of the recommended treatment for certain menstrual problems and leg ulcers
• Folic acid also helps with tissue growth and cell function
• It helps to increase appetite when needed and stimulates the formation of digestive acids
• Pregnant women have an increased need for folic acid, both for themselves and their child. Folic acid also is crucial to support the rapid growth of the placenta and fetus. Taken as part of a B-complex vitamin that contains biotin and vitamin B12, folic acid can strengthen the reproductive system in women having trouble conceiving. Without adequate amounts of folic acid, cell division could be impaired, possibly leading to poor growth in the fetus or placenta. Adequate intake of folic acid is vital for the prevention of several types of birth defects, particularly neural tube defects
• Folic acid appears to regulate the body’s production and use of homocysteine. High levels of a substance called homocysteine in the blood is considered to be a risk factor for heart disease. People who are at high risk of strokes and heart disease may greatly benefit by taking folic acid supplements
• High levels of homocysteine have also been found to contribute to problems with osteoporosis. Folic acid, together with vitamins B6 and B12, helps break down homocysteine, and may help reverse the problems associated with elevated levels
• Folate status is associated with colorectal, lung, esophageal, brain, cervical and breast cancers
• Folate is involved in the synthesis, repair, and functioning of DNA, our genetic map, and a deficiency of folate may result in damage to DNA that may lead to cancer
• Folate is important for cells and tissues that rapidly divide
• Because folic acid is often deficient in those who are depressed, a supplement may help. Vitamin B9 (folate) may be associated with depression more than any other nutrient, and may play a role in the high incidence of depression in the elderly

DL-methionine

• Methionine is an essential amino acid — a precursor of cysteine and creatine
• Methionine is involved in tissue repair of the liver and kidneys and helps to eliminate toxins from the body
• This amino acid stimulates increased levels of antioxidants and is involved in fat metabolism, reducing blood cholesterol

Alpha-lipoic acid

• Essential component of the cell responsible for energy production
• Creates added protection against free radicals in any part of the cells and even penetrate into the space between cells
• One of the most powerful natural antioxidants
• Soluble in water and in fat
• Protects against the destruction of the antioxidant vitamins E and C
• Influence the metabolism
• Improves glucose metabolism in the cell, does not allow it to accumulate in the blood
• It is great anti-aging agent. It helps to fight not only with age, but photoaging caused harmful effects on the skin of UV rays
• Enhances the protective function of the skin, helps her deal with a bad environment, adverse environmental factors

Magnesium

• According to the US National Institute of Health, magnesium is need for more than 300 biochemical processes in the body.  It helps maintain normal muscle and nerve function, keeps heart rhythm steady, supports a healthy immune system, and keeps bones strong
• Magnesium also helps regulate blood sugar levels, promotes normal blood pressure, and is known to be involved in energy metabolism and protein synthesis
• There is increased recognition of the role of magnesium in preventing and managing disorders such as hypertension, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes
• Magnesium has a cardioprotective effect, providing a beneficial effect on heart rhythm disturbances, coronary heart disease, myocardial infarction, improving myocardial oxygen supply
• Magnesium exhibits vasodilator effect and helps reduce blood pressure
• Magnesium is an anti-stress macro-elements, has a normalizing effect on the nervous system and its higher parts (especially in combination with vitamin B6) with nervous tension, depression, neurosis
• Magnesium in diabetes prevents cardiovascular complications and, in combination with zinc, chromium, selenium improves the function of beta cells of the pancreas. In diseases of the respiratory system enhances the removal of the bronchi and bronchospasm
• Magnesium has a positive impact on the reproductive system. In pregnant women, magnesium deficiency prevents the development of the fruit (along with folic and pantothenic acid), the development of gestosis, premature births and miscarriages
