Properties:

Livabion contains a combination of water-soluble vitamins:

Vitamin B12 in the form of cyanocobalamin, which is used in deficiency states including megaloblastic anemia, antiatherogenic, neuroprotective and mood-modulating activity.

Folic acid, a member of the B vitamin family, is involved in several key biological processes, including the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and proteins. It is essential for DNA replication and repair, as well as for maintaining genome integrity. Folic acid reduces the risk of neural tube defects and possibly other types of birth defects. It may also have antiatherogenic, anticarcinogenic, neuroprotective, and antidepressant effects.

Vitamin B6 is a collective term for a group of three related compounds, Pyridoxine (PN), Pyridoxal (PL) and Pyridoxamine. Vitamin B6 is used in the prevention and treatment of vitamin B6 deficiency and peripheral diseases.

Nicotinamide (niacinamide) is one of the two main forms of the B vitamins. Nicotinamide may have antidiabetogenic activity in some cases. It may also have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

D-panthenol, a member of the B vitamin family, is an essential nutrient in human nutrition. It is sometimes called vitamin B5. Pantothenic acid has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

Orotic acid is an intermediate in pyrimidine metabolism, also known as vitamin B13. It is primarily used for the metabolism of folic acid and vitamin B12, and also helps restore liver parenchyma and improves detoxification of the body.
