Influence of bioactive substances

Iron

Iron is a vital element. It exists in haemoglobin, which transfers oxygen.  Iron is involved in numerous metabolic reactions and is very important for human immune system. Iron deficiency may cause anaemia.  Iron deficiency may result in loss of energy and weakness, attention concentration disorders, heart rate disorders, skin dryness, desire to eat something unusual - cement, chalk, soil.
To compensate iron insufficiency, various iron preparations are widely used. This preparation contains a bivalent iron in fumarate compound, which is easily assimilated by human body.

Vitamin C of prolonged effect

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) participates in various physiologic processes of the organism: metabolism of connective tissue, synthesis of glucosaminoglycans, strengthens immune system, participates in the metabolism of cholesterol, distinguishes for antioxidative features, strengthens walls of the vessels, necessary for iron adoption. The demand of vitamin C increases in case of frequent and permanent stress, while smoking, having infectious diseases, for elder people, while eating an inferior food.

Vitamin C of prolonged effect is absorbed faster, it has bigger concentration in plasma, but it is slowlier released from the organism, i.e. it is detected in the urine later than usual vitamin C. Thus vitamin C of prolonged effect stays in the organism 2-3 times longer; it is beneficial to use vitamin C of prolonged effect in order to reduce morbidity and mortality from heart and vessel diseases, cancer and respiratory diseases. According to the data of tentative researches the molecular mass of vitamin C of prolonged effect is larger than of usual vitamin C and thus it is considered that because of this reason vitamin C of prolonged effect is filtered slowlier through kidneys and is slowlier released with urine. Fast adoption of vitamin C and its slowlier excretion with urine ensures optimal biochemical activity.
After accomplishing doubly encoded placebo auditorial researches it was determined that vitamin C of prolonged effect causes much less violations of digestive tract and is better tolerated than usual vitamin C. ( issue of Advances in Natural Therapy). While using vitamin C of prolonged effect there is a smaller risk that oxalate gravels will appear.
