How Does It Work?

• Pyridoxine Hydrochloride+Vitamin B9 / Folic Acid / Folate+Alpha Lipoic Acid+Vitamin B12 / Mecobalamin / Cynocobalamin / Methylcobalamin+Vitamin D3 / Cholecalciferol works by the combined action of its five different constituents - alpha-lipoic acid, folic acid, methylcobalamin, pyridoxine, and vitamin D3.
• Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that helps in reducing the hyperglycemia-induced cell death of nerves. It can also reduce pain, abnormal sensation and numbness associated with diabetic neuropathy.
• Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 which helps in the formation of nerve cells and regeneration of damaged nerves in the brain.
• Vitamin D3 plays an important role in neuronal function, improves the synthesis of neuronal cells and can prevent damage to neurons.
• Folic acid is involved in certain reactions, such as methylation and synthesis of neurotransmitters and can improve nerve conduction in diabetic neuropathy.
• Pyridoxine, also known as vitamin B6, is a crucial component for various reactions and acts as a co-enzyme in the body.
