- Vitamin A, acquired through food, contributes to maintaining the health of our vision, the immune system and strengthens reproductive capacity. It helps the formation and development of bones, soft tissues, mucous membranes and skin. Its consumption reduces the appearance of acne on our skin.
- Vitamin D, present in fatty fish, egg yolks, meat and can also be generated by tanning in the sun's rays. So taking it in supplement form helps avoid the risk of overexposure to the sun. This vitamin is essential for the proper functioning of our muscles, to combat osteoporosis and to act against certain viruses or bacteria. In addition, it promotes the absorption of calcium.
- Omega 3, very important to strengthen our neurons, keep the heart healthy and, therefore, to prevent cardiovascular diseases.
