Vitamin A or Pro-vitamin A: Vitamin A captures free radicals and protects against oxidative alterations. Vitamin B1: The organism needs Vitamin B1 for nerve functions and the metabolism of carbohydrates and energy. Vitamin B2: In the organism, this vitamin plays an important role in the metabolism of carbohydrates and proteins, as well as in cellular respiration. Vitamin B6: The body needs vitamin B6 for the metabolism of proteins. Vitamin B12: Vitamin B12 is important for building new blood cells and for the nervous system.
