Vitamin A is involved in various biochemical and physiological processes in the cell. For example, vitamin A binds to so-called retoinden receptors that ensure the activation or inactivation of genes that play a role in the cell specialization process. Cells acquire their specific functionality, depending on the type of tissue they are part of. Sufficient intake of vitamin A is also important for vision, but not only for the ability to adapt vision to a dark environment. Vitamin A also maintains a good structure and moisture balance of the cornea through tears. Furthermore, this vitamin is necessary for the integrity of epithelial cells in the body and thus supports the quality of the skin and mucous membranes (including in the intestine and lungs). Vitamin A promotes the availability of iron from body stores and thus supports the maintenance of good iron levels in the blood. Vitamin A is also important for a well-functioning immune system, for example by supporting the balance between Th1 and Th2 cells.

The pure form of vitamin C is ascorbic acid. The buffered forms of ascorbic acid are generally better tolerated by humans than the pure form. Ascorbic acid is acidic and the buffered forms give virtually no gastrointestinal problems. Vitamin C is an essential vitamin for the body. It is involved in many processes in the body, including immune system, blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, teeth, skin, energy metabolism, nervous system and fatigue.

Vitamin D is also produced by our skin, but for many this is not sufficient or does not work well. The supplementation of vitamin D is a good solution for this. Vitamin D is important in various processes in the body. Vitamin D contributes, among other things, to the immune system, muscles, bones, teeth, cell division process and the production of new cells.

Zinc is available in different forms. Zinc bisglycinate has a very good bioavailability. It is a chelated form of zinc bound to two (bis) molecules of the amino acid glycine which has more benefits for the body. Zinc has a very wide range of action and is involved in many body processes. Zinc is essential for the activity of more than 300 enzymes that have the zinc ion as a cofactor. Zinc is also important for proteins and cell membranes. Zinc is important for the immune system, acid-base metabolism, carbohydrate metabolism, DNA synthesis, cognitive functions, fertility, reproduction, vitamin A metabolism, macronutrient metabolism, bones, hair, skin, nails, hormones and cell division, among other things.
