About
ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+BENFOTIAMINE+FOLIC ACID+INOSITOL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE belongs to the class of 'nutritional supplements', primarily used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It effectively treats various conditions caused due to lack of vitamins, such as vitamin B1, B6, B12 deficiencies, diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to diabetes), and peripheral neuropathy (nerve damage in the hands and feet). Nutritional deficiency occurs when the body is unable to absorb or get enough nutrients from food.
ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+BENFOTIAMINE+FOLIC ACID+INOSITOL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE contains Alpha-lipoic acid, Benfotiamine, Inositol, Folic acid, Pyridoxine hydrochloride, and Methylcobalamin. Alpha-lipoic acid prevents cell damage and restores vitamin levels in the body. Benfotiamine helps deliver essential nutrients to the nerves. Inositol works by dilating the blood vessels and improving blood circulation. Folic acid helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Pyridoxine hydrochloride is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the formation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.

Medicinal Benefits
ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+BENFOTIAMINE+FOLIC ACID+INOSITOL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE is used to treat nutritional deficiencies. It contains Alpha-lipoic acid, Benfotiamine, Folic acid, Inositol, Pyridoxine hydrochloride, and Methylcobalamin. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that prevents cell damage and restores vitamin levels in the body. It also protects the nerve cells from damaging degradation products and free radicals. Benfotiamine, a synthetic form of Vitamin B1 or Thiamine, helps deliver essential nutrients to the nerves. It improves mental health symptoms in people addicted to alcoholism and pain caused by diabetic neuropathy. Folic acid helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. Inositol works by dilating the blood vessels and improving blood circulation to the legs, toes, and fingers, thereby relieving pain. Pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6) is involved in protein, fat, and carbohydrate metabolism and the creation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. Methylcobalamin is a coenzyme form of vitamin B12. It regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Nutritional deficiencies: A nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not absorb or get enough nutrients from food. Vitamins and minerals are necessary for body development and the prevention of diseases. Sometimes your body is unable to absorb many nutrients even if you are consuming them. Nutrient deficiency can lead to many health problems like a weakened immune system, skin problems, digestion problems, defective bone growth, and neurological diseases.
