Main Functions:
• Potent antioxidant.
• Benefit in reversing neuropathic problems.
• Regenerates Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Glutathione and CoQ (Ubiquinone)
What is Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA)?
Alpha-lipoic acid or ALA is a naturally occurring compound that's made in the body. It serves vital functions at the cellular level, such as energy production.
Main Functions:
• Helps regeneration and repair injured and damaged nerves.
• Reduces nerve pain and neuropathy symptoms caused by diabetes.
• Maintain normal neural function.
What is Vitamin B Complex?
The Vitamin B Complex in Bionerv® contains Vitamin B1, Vitamin B6 and Vitamin B12.
Vitamin B1 which is also called Thiamin, enables the body to use carbohydrates as energy. It is essential for glucose metabolism, and it plays a key role in nerve, muscle, and heart function. By taking Vitamin B1, it helps prevent complications in the nervous system, brain, muscles, heart, stomach, and intestines.
Vitamin B6, which is also called Pyridoxine, plays an important role in protein, fat and carbohydrate metabolism, and the creation of red blood cells and neurotransmitters. This Vitamin B6 cannot be produced in the body, so it can only be obtained by external factors.
The Vitamin B12, Cobalamin, is an important water-soluble vitamin involved in red blood cell production, brain health and DNA synthesis. This Vitamin B12 can come in different forms such as Cyanocobalamin and Methylcobalamin. In Bionerv®, Methlycobalamin is used.
Cyanocobalamin is a synthetic form of vitamin B12 that is not found in nature. Methylcobalamin is a naturally occurring form of vitamin B12 that can be obtained through supplements, as well as food sources.
Methylcobalamin may be retained better within the body.
Both have beneficial effects on health and can prevent B12 deficiencies.
NEUROPATHY
What is Neuropathy >
Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that arises when nerves that carry messages to and from the brain, spinal cord and the rest of the body are damaged or diseased.
WHAT ARE MUSCLE CRAMPS?
A muscle cramp is a sudden, unexpected tightening of one or more muscles. The contraction of muscles can be painful. They’re common, involuntary and unpredictable.

Symptoms >
• Painful involuntary tightening or contracting of muscles
• Muscles twitch under your skin and it feels hard when touched
Causes >
• Not enough stretching
• Overusing the muscle
• Dehydration
• Depletion of electrolytes (e.g. insufficient magnesium)
• Restriction in the blood supply
• Stress
Treatment Options >
• Stretch the muscle
• Massage the affected area
• Apply heat or cold pack
• Take painkillers
• Magnesium supplementation
• Take warm baths or shower for better blood circulation
Why is Magnesium Important? >
• Maintenance of normal muscle contraction and relaxation
• For energy metabolism in the body
• For proper cell, tissue, and organ function
• Reduces inflammation caused by muscle cramps or muscle tightness
Reasons for Topical / Transdermal Magnesium >
• Faster and more efficient onset compared to oral form magnesium :
A. Oral form magnesium is only absorbed in the intestines and as low as 24% of orally taken magnesium is absorbed.
B. Topical form magnesium is absorbed immediately to the applied area.
• Significantly increases cellular magnesium levels and reducing the frequencies of cramps
• Magnesium levels in blood may not be indicative of magnesium levels within the muscles
• Less risk of diarrhoea. Less risk of drug-drug interaction
