ENRICH SYP 240ML

Calcium and Cyanocobalamin are the active components in the syrup/suspension. Calcium plays a crucial role in maintaining bone health and muscle function. It works by binding to specific receptors on cells, promoting bone mineralization and supporting proper muscle contraction. Cyanocobalamin, a form of vitamin B12, is essential for nerve function, DNA synthesis, and red blood cell formation. It helps in the production of myelin, a protective covering around nerves, and aids in the conversion of food into energy. The mechanism involves Cyanocobalamin's role in facilitating enzymatic reactions, particularly in the metabolism of fatty acids and amino acids, which are vital for overall cellular function and energy production.
