Heptavits are a combination of
many different vitamins that are normally found in foods and other natural

and many other conditions.
Pharmacology
Vitamin A plays an essential role
in the function of retina and is essential for growh and differentiation of
epithelial tissue.
Vitamin B: Plays a role in the
synthesis and maintenance of coenzyme A. Necessary for lipid metabolism,
carbohydrate metabolism, tissue respiration, glycogenolysis, inhibition of very
low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) synthesis. May increaase chylomicron triglyceride
removal from plasma.
Vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin):
Required for the maintenance of normal erthropoiesis, nucleprotein and myelin
synthesis, cell reproduction and normal growth; intrinsic factor, a
glycoprotein secreted by the gastric mucosa, is required for active absorption
of Vitamin B12 from the Gl tract. Necessary for normal tissue respiration;
plays a role in activation of pyridoxine and conversion of tryptophan to
niacin.
Vitamin E is an antioxidant which
preserves essential cellular constituents.
Vitamin C: Necessary for collagen
formation and tissue repair; plays a role in oxidation/reduction reactions as
well as other metabolic pathways including synthesis of catecholamines,
carnitine, and steroids; also plays a role in conversion of folic acid to
folinic acid.
Vitamin D3 is a fat-soluble
sterol. It is necessary for the regulation and regulation of calcium and
phosphate homoeostasis and bone mineralisation. Vitamin D is also essential for
healthy bones as it aids in Calcium absorption from the Gl tract. In addition
to this it stimulates bone formation. Clinical studies also show that Calcium
and Vitamin D has synergistic effects on bone growth as well as in Osteoporosis
and fracture prevention.
