Unigamma - multivitamins with enhanced pharmacological effect of B vitamins.

Unigamma is used as part of a comprehensive treatment of neurological diseases: intercostal neuralgia, cervico-brachial syndrome, radicular syndrome in osteochondrosis and disc herniation, trigeminal neuralgia.
Release form
Unigamma - tablet form, in the package - 30 pcs.
Pharmacodynamics
Unigamma - vitamins of group B.
Benfotiamin - fat-soluble form of thiamine, which in the body turns into thiamine pyrophosphate. As a result, the activity of transketolase increases. Disturbances in diabetes mellitus are due to a deficiency of this important enzyme. Synthesis of ATP is impossible without thiamine. ATP improves the conduct of nerve impulses.
Vitamin B6, or pyridoxine plays a key role in the normal function of the central nervous system. In the body, it turns into pyridoxal-5-phosphate, which is involved in the metabolism of tryptophan, which accelerates the recovery of nerve cells.
Vitamin B12 is a component of the synthesis of DNA and RNA, carbohydrates and fats. Deficiency of this vitamin leads to violations of the myelin sheath.
Pharmacokinetics
After taking Unigamma, benfotiamine is immediately absorbed from the digestive tract. The maximum concentration of the vitamin is reached in the blood for an hour. Metabolised in the liver and excreted in the urine.
Small concentrations of pyridoxine can be found in the myocardium and liver. It is excreted by the kidneys within 3-6 hours.
Vitamin B12 is absorbed into tissues after absorption. From the liver, it is excreted into the intestines, where it is absorbed.

Special instructions
B vitamins are "food" for neurons. They are necessary to repel the daily attack on our fragile nervous system, our main "processor". They are used to treat diseases of the nervous system for many years. Recent work in the field of neurophysiology convinces unequivocally - if a person has insomnia and loss of memory, then, most likely, it is a lack of vitamins of group B. The need for vitamins of group B is especially great in the elderly, with poisoning and stress. If they are not enough, you begin to suffer from insomnia, reduced efficiency and attention, your head hurts. The same symptoms can give parasitic infections, so do not take a long time to take B vitamins, if there is no progress - look for another reason for ill health.
Nevertheless, due to vitamin deficiency, diseases occur. For example, with vitamin B1 deficiency, a person gets beriberi. This disease is widespread in the tropics, where the main food is plants, rice, and there is no meat. If you do not eat meat, we recommend preparing dishes from sea kale and eating nuts to compensate for the deficit. This condition is accompanied by a loss of limb sensitivity. Vitamin B1 is a vitamin of a wonderful mood and excellent state of health.
When there is a lack of vitamins of group B, special vitamin complexes are necessary, which have a curative effect on the nervous system, restoring the nervous tissue. Such drugs are available in the form of injections and tablets.
Deficiency of vitamins of group B causes pressure jumps and violation of neuro-humoral regulation, and also leads to a persistent decrease in immunity. Vitamin B1 gives you confidence in your abilities, increases efficiency and improves mood and memory, soothes annoyed "bared" nerves. He takes an active part in the metabolism of carbohydrates. Strengthens the tissue respiration. During stress, your body really needs vitamins B2 and B6. They are immediate participants in the work of the cardiovascular system, they expand the vessels. These two vitamins get people most often in the composition of meat products, oatmeal and legumes. Vitamin B2 takes part in the synthesis of ATP, performs antioxidant functions, improves vision. With the participation of vitamin B2, a synthesis of thyroid hormones occurs. Among the cells of the body there are none that can normally perform their function without vitamin B2, it is also called riboflavin. Vitamin B3 is involved in the production of energy for the heart muscle. Vitamin B5 stimulates the heart and increases attention. Vitamin B6 cleaves cholesterol. It is found in every cell. It is necessary for pregnant and sick hepatitis and joint diseases. With its deficiency, sensory polyneuropathy develops, accompanied by a feeling of numbness and reflex reflexes, sleep is disturbed. Sources of vitamin B6 - walnut, liver, prunes, seeds, dairy products, pistachios. Vitamin B6 removes from the body homocysteine - an amino acid, very harmful to blood vessels, which can provoke a heart attack or stroke. People need to take it to have quiet nerves. Also without vitamin B6, it is impossible to assimilate vitamin B12. Since all B vitamins are water-soluble, they are easily lost during heat treatment. Antibiotics and smoking interfere with the easy assimilation of B vitamins, so you must give up medicine and bad habits to the maximum.
Also, these vitamins improve our performance. Vitamin B12 is an assistant in the process of cell division and formation of red blood cells. Vitamin B12 strengthens the brain, reduces the toxic effect on the central nervous system. Contained in tuna, beef and milk. With its lack, anemia develops. Particularly shown is vitamin B12 therapy for those who work in hazardous industries, athletes, people experiencing loss of a loved one, suffering from anxiety and neuroses, allergies, hypertension and migraine, since these conditions are mostly psychosomatic in nature. Also remember that B vitamins directly affect the digestibility of minerals: magnesium, calcium. B vitamins do not accumulate in the body, but are consumed immediately with mental stress.
Can there be despair, sadness, depression and fear, absent-mindedness - a consequence of a deficiency of vitamins? Insomnia and forgetfulness indicate that nerves need help. Vitamins and micronutrients are a great help in the fight against depression. If you are forced to stay up late, but want to feel great, take the vitamins of group B. Strong nerves help us not so sharply react to criticism. And women suffering from PMS are in most cases, victims of a lack of vitamin B6. Unigamma replenishes the deficiency of B vitamins without side effects. Unfortunately, today no one does without stress. Communication with colleagues, household chores, travel in transport - all these are sources of nervous tension. Unigamma will help not only to recover from an attack of radiculitis or osteochondrosis, but also to resist stress. If you have signs of a lack of magnesium along with a deficiency of B vitamins, try to drink the course of Magne B6. The vitamins and minerals contained in Magne B6 and the preparation of Unigamma will cause neurons to work at full strength. For you, this means a successful fight against everyday stress. You will not be afraid of either a busy schedule or being in a constant information flow.
Every day, you should allocate yourself a little time, when you will be absolutely calm. Sit in a quiet place and breathe deeply. Also a full sleep is necessary. For this, it is important not to overeat for the night, especially the protein is harmful. Protein food is quite heavy, and instead of sleeping your body will take up its digestion. Dine easily, 3 hours before bedtime. Sleep with an open window on the orthopedic mattress. Before going to bed, take a bath with essential oils - pour oil in the bath and soak for 20-25 minutes. Drink warm milk with honey for the night. Good soothes mint. Pour it with boiling water and drink infusion three times a day for a glass. There are cases when one can not calm down on his own, and the doctor prescribes arsenic to calm the matter. They are used in neuroses to raise the tone. In these drugs, arsenic is very small, they can not harm you if prescribed by a doctor.
In general, smile more often. Find a lesson for yourself - and you do not have to work forcing yourself. To gain strength every day, you need to work on yourself. Your body requires an attentive attitude. Cheerfulness gives strength to solve any, the most difficult life task. Do not be friends with unruly people. This is of great importance for healthy strong nerves. And take Unigamm's packaging with you to work to be armed against stress. In a stressful situation, stay calm and show indifference, do not get irritated.
In addition to nervousness, we often lead to a neurologist with back pain. Most often the cause is osteochondrosis, "drying out", "aging" of the discs and damage to the roots of the nerves. Prevention of osteochondrosis is simple: do not wear weights on one side, provide the body with useful substances for cartilage. You can not do without gymnastics. It is also necessary to take high doses of B vitamins: they are expressed to reduce pain syndrome. Unfortunately, in developing countries the problem of deficiency of these vitamins has always been topical. Such people have a big risk of developing polyneuropathy. These are diseases that arise as a result of the weakening of the nervous system. The problem is especially urgent for people who are no longer young. They need to drink vitamin complexes every month every three months. Before the session, students are also very useful to stock up on fuel for nerves. The importance of vitamins for strengthening the nervous system is very high, if you often work at night. A few more tips for maintaining the nervous system in a healthy state:
- During the night, the quality of sleep changes, alternating phases of slow and fast sleep. During a slow sleep, all organs and systems are in a relaxed state, and during a fast sleep, the heart rate increases, through closed eyelids it can be seen that the eyes are moving. This phase of sleep is very sensitive. The slightest rustle leads to a person waking up. Therefore, you need to sleep in complete silence. At night turn off all the equipment, which can at least a little buzz, it creates background noise.
- Sleep until two in the morning is a "dream of beauty". At this time there is a restoration of all organs, the skin becomes velvet, if you go to bed before midnight.
- The cause of chronic diseases is weediness, slagging of the body. Get rid of the slag, and the nervous system will stop working in the constant mode of emergency.
