Pharmacological properties
Pharmacodynamics
Bio-Max is a balanced vitamin and mineral complex, which includes 12 vital vitamins and 8 macro- and microelements. A specially selected combination of nutrients in the complex is developed in accordance with the needs of residents of the Russian Federation, taking into account the characteristics of their diet, climate and lifestyle.
The vitamin-mineral complex supports the energy reserve of systems and organs: promotes the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and proteins; participates in the synthesis of connective tissue, collagen and neurotransmitters. It improves the body's protective properties, ensures the normal functioning of the nervous system, increases resistance to stress, improves the condition of the skin, bone tissue, hair, gums, teeth, blood vessels, promotes wound healing and has antioxidant effectiveness.
Pharmacological properties of individual components of Bio-Max:
- Vitamin A takes part in the synthesis of proteins, fats, mucopolysaccharides; ensures normal eye function; increases resistance to infection of the skin and mucous membranes;
- B vitamins are involved in the formation of various enzymes that support the regulation of metabolism in the body: thiamine hydrochloride - ensures the synthesis of the neurotransmitter acetylcholine; riboflavin – necessary for biological oxidation (cellular or tissue respiration) and catabolism; calcium pantothenate - required for metabolic processes, the synthesis of steroid hormones, phospholipids, and other physiologically active substances, supports the development and differentiation of cells; pyridoxine hydrochloride – an element of carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism; cyanocobalamin – necessary for the synthesis of nucleic acids, affects hematopoiesis;
- Vitamin C is required for the oxidation of biologically active substances; takes part in the regulation of metabolic processes in connective tissue and carbohydrate metabolism; reduces the permeability of vascular walls, participates in the regeneration of bone and cartilage tissue; stimulates the synthesis of steroid hormones, potentiates the absorption of iron in the intestine;
- Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant that maintains the stability of cell membranes and protects them from damage;
- Nicotinamide is involved in redox processes;
- Rutoside reduces capillary permeability;
- Folic acid is present in the synthesis of amino and nucleic acids, stimulates erythropoiesis;
- Lipoic or thioctic acid is required for the redox processes of the body, exhibits hypolipidemic and antioxidant effects, and has a detoxifying effect in case of intoxication;
- Iron (Fe) is present in hemoglobin and a number of enzymes;
- Calcium (Ca) is an essential macronutrient in the structure of bone tissue (the body of a healthy person contains more than 1 kg of pure calcium), required for muscle contraction (including heart muscle), blood clotting and synaptic transmission;
- Cobalt (Co) stimulates the processes of hematopoiesis and is part of cyanocobalamin;
- Magnesium (Mg) helps strengthen the immune system, ensures normal function of the cardiovascular system, eliminates rhythm disturbances and myocardial excitability;
- Manganese (Mn), along with calcium, takes part in the formation and mineralization of bone tissue;
- Copper (Cu) is required for normal iron metabolism and is involved in the supply of oxygen to tissues;
- Zinc (Zn) is present in many enzyme systems, ensures the production of insulin, as well as other hormones, and is involved in tissue regeneration;
- Phosphorus (P) is necessary for the formation of bone tissue and teeth, participates in the formation of high-energy compounds and in energy transport.

Beneficial features
The main beneficial properties of the drug are:
- acceleration of metabolic synthesis;
- improving the condition of the visual organs;
- increasing the protective functions of the skin and mucous membranes;
- restoration and normalization of the functioning of the nervous system, the production of certain substances;
- restoration of connective tissues, strengthening of vascular walls, cartilage tissues;
- increasing the body's ability to absorb iron;
- accelerating the transformation of the body's energy reserves;
- normalization of the functioning of the organs of the cardiovascular system, in particular the heart muscle;
- improvement of hematopoietic processes;
- strengthening bone and enamel tissues, improving the condition of teeth;
- improvement of appearance;
- normalization of the functioning of the human body as a whole.
In addition, for those who take the drug, all metabolic processes are normalized, the conductivity of nerve tissue is improved, and the process of coagulation of genetic material is stabilized. The benefits of using the complex can only be felt if you start taking it. However, it has certain indications and contraindications, which are not recommended to be ignored.
