Plant foods contain provitamin A-carotene, which is converted to retinol in the presence of fats and bile.

Vitamin C helps the body absorb iron and heal wounds, and also enhances enzyme activity. It is involved in the synthesis of collagen, which strengthens blood vessels, ligaments and bones, and in redox reactions. This trace element contributes to the functioning of the immune system. Vitamin C is the strongest antioxidant. Its purpose is to protect internal organs and tissues from damage of various etiologies, to prevent the formation of malignant tumors.

Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin required by almost all human life systems. It is also called the sunshine vitamin because our body is able to accumulate it in the process of sunbathing.

Vitamin E It has an antioxidant effect, participates in the biosynthesis of heme and proteins, cell proliferation, tissue respiration, and other important processes of tissue metabolism, prevents hemolysis of erythrocytes, prevents increased permeability and fragility of capillaries, stimulates the synthesis of proteins and collagen.

Iron is an essential element for all living organisms.It is part of the enzymes that are involved in vital metabolic processes – oxygen transport, DNA synthesis, electron transport for energy production.

Zinc is an effective immunostimulant. It acts as a "second messenger" of immune cells and significantly reduces the duration of colds. In addition, a sufficient supply of zinc to the visual structures ensures the correct perception of light stimuli on the retina and reduces the risk of developing age-related macular degeneration.

Copper is an essential trace element for the life of the human body. Most of it is found in the liver, brain, heart, kidneys and skeletal muscles. Copper promotes collagen formation, iron absorption and plays an important role in energy production.

Chromium is necessary for the normal metabolism of fats (including their burning), its deficiency always leads to overweight and obesity. Chromium helps the normal functioning of the thyroid gland. Chromium is also involved in the formation of normal immunity and affects the growth and regeneration of tissues.

Manganese – actively affects the metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates and fats. Its ability to enhance the action of insulin and maintain a certain level of cholesterol in the blood is also considered important. In the presence of manganese, the body uses fats more fully, and the absorption of copper increases.

Molybdenum – plays a very important role in human health. It helps to maintain the normal state of dental tissues and gums, and also protects against the occurrence of caries – this is due to the fact that molybdenum is able to retain fluorine in the body.
