About Folistein DHA Softgel Capsule 10's
Folistein DHA Softgel Capsule 10's is used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It is used to treat and prevent vitamin B6 deficiency, folate deficiency, and vitamin B12 deficiency. Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food. It could lead to various health problems, including defective bone growth, anaemia, skin disorders, digestive issues, nerve disorders, and dementia (memory loss).
Folistein DHA Softgel Capsule 10's contains Docosahexaenoic acid, L-Methylfolate, Pyridoxal-5-phosphate, and Methylcobalamin. Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) is an omega fatty acid that controls cholesterol levels and thus improves cardiovascular health. L-Methylfolate helps in the formation of red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxal-5-phosphate/Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism, the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin/Mecobalamin/Vitamin B12 regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.
Your doctor will decide the duration based on your medical condition.
