It passes unchanged through the gastric passage and is presented for absorption in the intestines as an organic amino acid (not as an inorganic salt) which is almost completely absorbed. However, the organic form of amino acid iron is devoid of toxic effects on the intestinal mucosa and therefore does not cause diarrhea or constipation. Vitamin B9 or folic acid has an important role in tissue growth and regeneration, intervening in tissue remodeling. It intervenes in the formation of gastric juice, increasing appetite, improving general tone, improving liver function. It participates together with other vitamins of the B complex in maintaining the functional integrity of the nervous system, the tone of the skeletal muscles and at the level of the digestive tube, in maintaining the activity of various organs such as the skin and eyes. Vitamin B12 or cyanocobalamin is an indispensable vitamin in growth processes, being also involved in the synthesis of elements found in the structure of the nervous system. It ensures the normal maturation of red blood cells, is involved in DNA synthesis, ensures the functioning of the nervous system and intervenes in the maintenance of cognitive function.
