Daily hardships, physical work, and sport place a great strain on the body which responds with stress. Due to the effect of stress, the balance of free radicals and antioxidants is disturbed and if it lasts for a long time, it can lead to diseases and the acceleration of ageing.

It can help to develop collagen, L-carnitine and some neurotransmitters. Collagen can contribute to the growth of muscles, L-carnitine can reduce the level of body fat, some neurotransmitters can support the central nervous system and can improve sleep quality.

Vitamin C can be more useful if we intake it together with bioflavonoids. It is a good news that Vitamin C coming from natural resources contain bioflavonoids. On the other hand, with Vitamin C the effectiveness of other vitamins and compounds can be enhanced. Taking it with MSM, it increases the effect of anti-inflammatory, with grape seed extract it helps the recovery of cancer cells, in combination of β-catenin and Vitamin E the antioxidant properties can be increased.

Methylcobalamin
