Vitagen is a versatile addition to assist individuals to receive adequate Energy, Protein and Micronutrients (Vitamin C, Vitamin A, Vitamin E and Zinc) to prevent weight loss and wound healing.
Vitamin A: Involves in the skin healing process
Vitamin E: Involves in the anti-inflammatory response and immune enhancing effect
Vitamin C: Necessary for collagen formation, proper immune function and as a tissue antioxidant
Zinc: Requires for cellular proliferation, protein synthesis and immune function
Energy: Adequate energy is required to maintain tissue repair and to prevent protein being used as a source of energy
Specific Amino Acids: Arginine is an amino acid that substrate for wound healing
