About MecobalaminWater soluble, Form of Vitamin B12Mechanism of Action of MecobalaminMecobalamin is the neurologically active form of vitamin B12 and occurs as a water-soluble vitamin in the body. It is a cofactor in the enzyme methionine synthase, which functions to transfer methyl groups for the regeneration of methionine from homocysteine. In anaemia, it increases erythrocyte production by promoting nucleic acid synthesis in the bone marrow and by promoting maturation and division of erythrocytes.Pharmacokinets of MecobalaminAbsorption: Absorbed after oral, sublingual, injection

About SeleniumA vital antioxidant, selenium acts with vitamin E to protect the immune system and maintain healthy heart function. It is needed for pancreatic function and tissue elasticity and has been shown to protect against radiation and toxic minerals. High levels of heart disease are associated with selenium-deficient soil in Finland and a tendency to fibrotic heart lesions is associated with selenium deficiency in parts of China. Best sources are butter, Brazil nuts, seafood and grains grown in selenium-rich soil.Mechanism of Action of SeleniumN/APharmacokinets of SeleniumN/AOnset of Action for SeleniumN/ADuration of Action for SeleniumN/AHalf Life of SeleniumN/ASide Effects of SeleniumN/AContra-indications of SeleniumN/ASpecial Precautions while taking SeleniumN/APregnancy Related InformationN/AOld Age Related InformationN/ABreast Feeding Related InformationN/AChildren Related InformationN/AIndications for SeleniumN/AInteractions for SeleniumN/ATypical Dosage for SeleniumN/ASchedule of SeleniumN/AStorage Requirements for SeleniumN/AEffects of Missed Dosage of SeleniumN/AEffects of Overdose of SeleniumN/AL-Methionine
About L-MethionineSulfur-containing essential amino acid,powerful antioxidant. Mechanism of Action of L-MethionineDue to methionine's sulfurous properties, it may help to reduce cholesterol and liver fat, protect the kidneys, reduce bladder irritation, and detoxify both metabolic wastes and toxins. The naturally occurring sulfur found in methionine supplements may encourage healthy hair follicles, skin and nails.Pharmacokinets of L-MethionineN/AOnset of Action for L-MethionineN/ADuration of Action for L-MethionineN/AHalf Life of L-MethionineN/ASide Effects of L-Methionine1.Nausea
2.Vomiting
3.Drowsiness
4.Irritability
Contra-indications of L-MethionineMethylenetetrahydrofolate reductase deficiencySpecial Precautions while taking L-Methionine1.Methionine supplementation should only be taken with adequate amounts of B vitamins, supplied either through the diet or through a B-complex supplement. Methionine increases the liver's production of homocysteine, and the B vitamins are needed to prevent the homocysteine from entering the blood. This would be a problem because high blood homocysteine levels have been associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease.
2.Liver disease
3.Acidosis
4.Homocystinuria
5.Schizophrenia: Large doses of methionine (e.g., 20 g/day for 5 days) might cause confusion, disorientation, delirium, agitation, listlessness, and other similar symptoms in people with schizophrenia.
6.Atherosclerosis: There is some concern that methionine might make atherosclerosis worse

Schedule of L-MethionineN/AStorage Requirements for L-MethionineN/AEffects of Missed Dosage of L-MethionineN/AEffects of Overdose of L-MethionineMuch methionine can cause brain damage and death. Methionine can increase blood levels of homocysteine, a chemical that might cause heart disease. Methionine might also promote the growth of some tumors.
Zinc Ascorbate
About Zinc AscorbateZinc ascorbate is an antioxidant mineral and an immune booster.Mechanism of Action of Zinc AscorbateWhile the antioxidant activity of ascobic acid, also known as Vitamin C, is enhanced when zinc is present, zinc itself plays an important role in our immune system and other metabolic processes. Zinc ascorbate can also be better absorbed than the inorganic zinc salts. It also has greater tissue retention and is gentler on the system. Our body does contain a large number of zinc deposits in bones and muscles, but these are not readily available for use in cell growth. Under conditions where zinc is readily available, it is subject to high turnover rates, leading to deficiency if supply is not supplmented.Pharmacokinets of Zinc AscorbateN/AOnset of Action for Zinc AscorbateN/ADuration of Action for Zinc AscorbateN/AHalf Life of Zinc AscorbateN/ASide Effects of Zinc AscorbateN/AContra-indications of Zinc AscorbateN/ASpecial Precautions while taking Zinc AscorbateN/APregnancy Related InformationN/AOld Age Related InformationN/ABreast Feeding Related InformationN/AChildren Related InformationN/AIndications for Zinc AscorbateN/AInteractions for Zinc AscorbateN/ATypical Dosage for Zinc AscorbateN/ASchedule of Zinc AscorbateN/AStorage Requirements for Zinc AscorbateN/AEffects of Missed Dosage of Zinc AscorbateN/AEffects of Overdose of Zinc AscorbateN/AHome Delivery for Lycopene + Mecobalamin + L-Arginine + Vitamin E + Selenium + L-Methionine + Zinc Ascorbate in Your City
