Elemental Iron + Folic Acid + Nicotinamide + Pyridoxine Hydrochloride + Riboflavin + Vitamin B1 + Vitamin C

This product is a combination preparation of different vitamins and iron.  

Iron: Iron is an essential mineral for the body's development and growth. Hemoglobin, a protein found in red blood cells that transports oxygen from the lungs to all areas of the body, and myoglobin, a protein that transports oxygen to muscles, are both made from iron. Iron is also required by our bodies to produce some hormones and some essential enzymes that carry out important biochemical activities.

Folic acid: Folic acid plays an important role in DNA, RNA and Protein biosynthesis. Folic acid is converted into tetrahydrofolate in the body which is the active form.

Nicotinamide: Nicotinamide is converted into two essential coenzymes in the human body: nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) (NADP). Many important events require both NAD and NADP, including energy synthesis, DNA repair, and cell death regulation.

Pyridoxine HCl: Pyridoxine Hydrochloride is a water soluble form of pyridoxine or Vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 is a vitamin that benefits the central nervous system and metabolism. Its roles include turning food into energy and helping to create neurotransmitters, such as serotonin and dopamine. 

Riboflavin: Riboflavin, also known as vitamin B2, acts in conjunction with the other B vitamins. It is necessary for the development of the body. It aids in the formation of red blood cells. It also assists in the energy release from proteins. Riboflavin aids in the conversion of carbohydrates to adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

Vitamin B1: Vitamin B1, often known as thiamine, in one of the 8 essential vitamins which means that our body cannot produce this vitamin on its own. It is soluble in water. Vitamin B1 allows the body to utilize carbohydrates for energy. It is required for glucose metabolism and is important for nerve, muscle, and cardiac function.

Vitamin C: Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is required for the development, growth, and restoration of all body tissues. It is associated in many bodily functions, including collagen synthesis, iron absorption, immune system function, wound repair, and cartilage, bone, and tooth maintenance.
