Medicinal Benefits

FOLIC ACID+L ARGININE+ZINC contain Folic acid, L-Arginine, and Zinc. Folic acid, a form of Vitamin B, helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that lead to cancer. It prevents folic acid deficiency and treats anemia. L-Arginine acts as a building protein that gets converted into nitric oxide. This nitric oxide chemical widens the blood vessels and improves blood flow. This vasodilating action plays a vital role in treating heart diseases that are caused due to arterial plaque build-up, blood clots, and platelet clumping. It also improves conditions like chest pain (angina), high blood pressure, erectile dysfunction, and diabetes. Zinc is a mineral that promotes the growth and development of body tissues. It boosts the immune system, reduces inflammation, and maintains metabolic function.
