Purified water

Purified water is drinking water treated by reverse osmosis (transformation of salt or saline water into drinking water) or distillation, without minerals in its composition. Because it is filtered and potable water, it is free of undesirable substances such as parasites, chlorine, fluoride or dioxins. The benefits of its consumption are help in bowel regulation, skin rejuvenation, hydration of nails and hair and reduction of hypertension along with improvement of blood circulation.

Its main benefits are the control of cholesterol, the reduction of free radicals, its antioxidant action and an improvement in the symptoms of depression in people with bipolar disorder. Coenzyme Q10 is a great supplement for those suffering from cardiovascular problems, as it is present in the movement of muscle contraction and relaxation.

Vitamin A

Vitamin A is a fat-soluble vitamin found in foods such as eggs, carrots and pumpkin. It is found in two forms: retinol or carotenoids. Retinol is called the "true vitamin A" because it is in a form that is practically ready to be used by the body. Carotenoids are compounds that give orange or yellow color to various vegetables and fruits. The best known and most abundant is beta-carotene. In addition to being an essential vitamin for vision, it strengthens the immune system, regulates cell growth and division and contributes to the maintenance of healthy skin, teeth, bone tissue and mucous membranes. Beta-carotene (carotenoid) acts as an antioxidant that protects cells from free radical damage.

Selenium

Selenium is a micronutrient with several functions in the body and is one of the 26 essential elements for the development of living organisms. The concentration of selenium in the body is influenced by the environment and food. Skeletal muscle is the main storage site for this micronutrient and accounts for about 28-46% of the selenium in the body, and it can also be found in the liver, kidneys and heart. This micronutrient contributes to normal spermatogenesis, maintenance of hair and nails, normal functioning of the immune system, normal thyroid function and protection of cells against undesirable oxidation.

Zinc deficiency can cause loss of appetite, weight loss, diarrhea and reduced immune function.

Vitamin B1

Vitamin B1, better known as thiamine, is one of the water-soluble vitamins of the B complex. Its daily intake is recommended to maintain a balanced diet since our body stores only small amounts of this vitamin. Thiamine plays an important role in energy metabolism, growth, development and cell function. Contributes to normal energy-producing metabolism, normal functioning of the nervous system, normal psychological functioning and normal heart function. It also has a slight diuretic effect.
