Vitamins Undevit: composition
Undevit contains fat-soluble vitamins A and E (vitamin A and E are antioxidants, vitamin A is necessary for growth, maintaining vision, improving immune function, vitamin E has a beneficial effect on nerve and muscle tissue, supports the functions of the gonads, prevents the destruction of red blood cells) and water soluble vitamins B1, B2, calcium, B6, B12, folic acid, ascorbic acid, vitamin P, PP. Ascorbic acid– antioxidant, participates in the maturation of red blood cells, the formation of hemoglobin, collagen, maintains the health of teeth, bones, and cartilage. Folic acid is necessary for the formation of red blood cells, the synthesis of nucleotides, nucleic acids, amino acids. Vitamin P is an antioxidant and takes part in redox processes.

Vitamin B1 is essential for growth and development and maintenance of the heart, digestive and nervous systems. Calcium is responsible for the synthesis of hemoglobin, melatonin, and neutralization of harmful toxins. Vitamin B2 is necessary for growth and reproductive function, growth of nails, hair and skin. Vitamin B6 is necessary for the production of serotonin, control of sleep, emotions, and appetite. Vitamin B12 restores damaged tissues, is necessary for hematopoietic function and normal functioning nervous system.
How to take Undevit

normalizes work retina. It is needed for each cell to perform its function. Vitamin A and its derivatives can increase the body's resistance to infections and maintain the integrity of the skin and mucous membranes. Retinol is needed to convert stem cells into red blood cells. One of the main indications for use is a lack of useful components.
Is integral part many enzymes involved in food digestion. Without it, the synthesis of fats and proteins is impossible. The role of all B vitamins is great for functioning. participates in the transmission of nerve impulses.
Prevents the action of harmful free radicals. Niacin, folic acid, pyridoxine are also needed for correct exchange substances. In combination with retinol, riboflavin provides the necessary visual acuity and promotes the normal functioning of the retina.
Part of redox enzymes. The component takes part in the process of cell respiration, the release of energy from such organic matter like proteins, fats and carbohydrates. The effect of vitamin B3 on the synthesis of red blood cells has been proven. With regular admission, work improves digestive tract.

Folic acid responsible for hematopoiesis and the exchange of nucleic acids and amino acids.
Helps damaged tissues recover. Its required concentration in the body supports normal functioning, since the component affects the process of production of the myelin compound involved in the formation of the sheath of nerve processes.
Even in large quantities protects the body from the effects of free radicals. The compound normalizes metabolic processes and improves immunity. Undevit also contains other antioxidants. Ascorbic acid is necessary for the conversion of cholesterol into bile acids.
