What is Eracod Capsule used for?

Eracod Capsule is a 'nutritional supplement', primarily used to treat dietary deficiencies due to complications or long-term diseases.

How does Eracod Capsule work?

Eracod Capsule contains Cod liver oil. It is a rich source of both Omega-3 & vitamin D. Omega-3 supports major organs in the body, helping them to function normally, such as the heart, brain and eye. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble nutrient that contributes to healthy bones and strong teeth and supports the functioning of the immune system. It also helps our muscles function properly and aids in the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in our bodies. Thereby, Eracod Capsule helps to treat nutritional deficiencies.

Can I take Eracod Capsule if I suffer from glaucoma?

Cod liver oil is an excellent source of omega-3 and vitamin A, both of which may protect against vision loss from inflammatory eye diseases like glaucoma and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) (an eye disease that causes vision loss).

In which conditions should I avoid taking Eracod Capsule ?

Do not use Eracod Capsule if you ate allergic to Eracod Capsule or any other ingredients in it.

What are omega-3 fatty acids, and what do they do?

Omega-3 fatty acids are unsaturated fatty acids found in both animals and plants that aid in the function of the body's primary organs. Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids are present in oily fish like salmon and mackerel and are essential for a balanced diet. Flaxseed, chia seeds, and hemp seeds are the most common plant sources.

What is the purpose of vitamin D?

Regardless of age, vitamin D is needed to maintain normal bones because it helps the body absorb calcium and phosphorus. It supports the proper functioning of muscles. It also aids in the process of cell division, which helps our bodies grow and repair themselves. Vitamin D contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, which is the body's natural defence against germs and harmful bacteria.
