Vitamins "Aevit" - a complex of vitamins that stimulates the body's immunity and the removal of antioxidants, and it also has a positive effect on the skin, hair and nails. But it should be taken only after consulting a doctor. Why? The article answers this question.
Pharmacological properties
Vitamins "Aevit" - a combination drug. Its action is determined on the basis of the properties of fat-soluble vitamins that are part of it. These vitamins include A and E.
The number of components included in the complex does not allow us to consider it a multivitamin complex. With the joint functioning of the elements, the body's resistance to oxygen deficiency increases, tissue respiration is optimized, lipid metabolism improves and vascular elasticity increases.
Vitamin A or retinol is a very important component that contributes to the normal functioning of the body of the retina. When retinol interacts with red retinal pigmenteye, the visual purple of rhodopsin is formed, due to which a person’s visual adaptation in the dark occurs. In addition, vitamin A contributes to the growth of bones, as well as the normal function of childbearing and embryonic development. It also regulates the division and differentiation of the epithelium, i.e. contributes to increased multiplication of skin epithelial cells, rejuvenation of the cell population, inhibition of the keratinization process, etc. Among other things, with its help, as a cofactor, various biological processes occur.
Vitamin E or tocopherol is a good antioxidant that promotes the development of free radical reactions, preventing the formation of peroxides that damage subcellular and cell membranes. The performance of this function has a positive effect on the overall development, as well as the functioning of the muscular and nervous systems of the body. In combination with selenium, it slows down the process of oxidation of unsaturated acids (fatty) and prevents the destruction of red blood cells with the release of hemoglobin. Also, tocopherol is a non-protein compound for some enzyme systems. In addition, it restores blood circulation in the capillaries, normalizes tissue and capillary permeability and increases the resistance of body tissues to hypoxia. The function of one of the elements of vitamin E - alpha-tocopherol is not fully understood.
