Ferrous Ascorbate is an Iron Salts compound used primarily for the prophylaxis and treatment of iron deficiency anaemia. The body stores iron in compounds called ferritin and haemosiderin since it is an essential component in the formation of haemoglobin. Adequate amounts of iron are necessary for effective erythropoiesis. Iron also serves as a cofactor of several essential enzymes, including cytochromes, all of which are involved in electron transport. Iron absorption is a variable of the existing body iron stores, the form and quantity in foods, and the combination of foods in the diet. The ferrous form of inorganic iron is more readily absorbed.
Folic acid is required for synthesis of nucleoprotein, purine nucleotides and the metabolism of some amino acids, normal growth and cell reproduction, nucleoprotein synthesis and the maintenance of normal erythropoiesis.
Methylcobalamin is a kind of endogenous coenzyme vitamin B12. It is well transported to nerve cell organelles and promotes nucleic acid and protein synthesis.
Zinc like most minerals is efficiently chelated to ascorbic acid and has an efficient absorption rate so that small amounts provide effective supplementation. Zinc plays an important role in various biological activities particularly in numerous enzymatic pathways including synthesis of nucleic acids and metabolism of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids. It also helps in the development of cell mediated immunity.
