Benefits
Good for eyesight, growth and skin. Provitamin A protects the
organism against free radicals.
Vitamin B9 (folic acid) prevents certain forms of anaemia and
helps the nervous system function properly.
By stimulating our organism's defences against infectious
agents (bacteria or viruses), it reinforces our immune system. It
also promotes iron absorption.
It regulates calcium and phosphorus metabolism, thus ensuring
healthy skeletal development.
Vitamin E has antioxidant properties, helping to protect our
cells.
This is vital for blood coagulation and helps to fix calcium.
It contributes to the formation and solidity of bones and teeth.
Iron plays a key role in the manufacture of haemoglobin (the
vital pigment of red blood cells that carries oxygen to all the
other cells in our body).
This regulates the metabolism of muscle, heart and nervous
tissue.
It regulates blood pressure.
Sodium mainly helps to maintain cell hydration.
This promotes cell renewal, the immune system and the healing
of wounds.
