Supports healthy nail growth
Supports hair growth
Support hair breakage
Biotin: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, functioning of the nervous system, macronutrient metabolism and the maintenance of normal hair and skin.
Calcium: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal blood clotting, muscle function, neurotransmission and the function of digestive enzymes. Calcium plays a role in cell division and specialisation and is needed for the maintenance of normal bones and teeth, it helps to reduce the loss of bone minerals in post-menopausal women; low bone density is a risk factor for osteoporotic bone fractures.
Copper: Contributes to the maintenance of normal connective tissues, energy-yielding metabolism and normal functioning of the nervous system.
Folic Acid: Supplemental folic acid intake increases maternal folate status. Low maternal folate status is a risk factor in the development of neural tube defects in the developing foetus.
Iron: Contributes to normal cognitive function and immune system, it plays a role in the process of cell division and the formation of red blood cells, haemoglobin, oxygen transport in the body, normal energy-yielding metabolism and reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Pantothenic Acid: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, mental performance, and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue, whilst also contributing to normal synthesis and metabolism of steroid hormones, Vitamin D and some neurotransmitters.
Vitamin A: Maintains normal skin and vision, normal function of the immune system and plays a role in the process of cell specialisation.
Vitamin B12: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the immune and nervous systems, homocysteine metabolism, normal red blood cell formation, the process of cell division and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
Vitamin B6: Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism, normal functioning of the immune and nervous systems, the formation of normal red blood cells, homocysteine, protein and glycogen metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin B6 also contributes to the regulation of hormonal activity.
Vitamin D: Contributes to the normal absorption of calcium and phosphorus and contributes to the maintenance of normal blood calcium levels, bones, teeth, as well as the maintenance of normal muscle function.
Vitamin E: Protects cells from oxidative stress.
Zinc: Contributes to normal DNA synthesis, normal fertility and reproduction, normal immune system function and normal cognitive function, normal acid-base and carbohydrate metabolism. Zinc also contributes to normal macronutrient, fatty acid and vitamin A metabolism, including bones, hair, nails and skin, it maintains normal testosterone levels in the blood and maintains normal vision, it protects cells from oxidative stress and plays a role in the process of cell division.
