1. What does Selazn do?


Selazn drug has main ingredients including β-carotene, selenium, vitamins E and C. Each ingredient has many important biological roles in the body.
Effects of ascorbic acid (vitamin C):
Impact on redox reactions of the body: The functions of ascorbic acid are mainly involved in redox biochemical reactions. Effects on Cardiovascular Disease: Hyperoxidative stress plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases, with particular evidence that oxidative modification of LDL and other lipoproteins promotes the development of cardiovascular disease. atherosclerotic LDL. Vitamin Cs can inhibit LDL oxidation in vitro by dehydrating ROS and RNS, preventing them from attacking LDL. Effects on WBCs and Inflammation: The presence of vitamin C in leukocytes is important because ROS produced during phagocytosis and neutrophil activation are involved in infectious stress or inflammatory response. . The intracellular concentration of ascorbate in leukocytes helps to counteract the oxidative damage associated with respiratory failure. Vitamin C can neutralize phagocytic-derived oxidants without inhibiting the antibacterial activity of macrophages. Vitamin C also plays a role in the expression of genes that regulate collagen, the secretion of cellular procollagens, and the biosynthesis of connective tissue components in addition to collagen including fibronectin, elastin, proteoglycans, and muscle. bones,... A lack of ascorbic acid leads to scurvy. The structure of collagen (the collagen) is affected first and lesions develop in the bones and blood vessels. Taking vitamin C can help eliminate symptoms caused by ascorbic acid deficiency. Vitamins are involved in the synthesis of certain substances such as corticosteroids and aldosterone into bile acids, regulation of prostaglandin synthesis, conversion of folic acid to folinic acid, and synthesis of lipids and proteins. Ascorbic acid also regulates iron absorption, transport and storage. Effects of vitamin E:
Antioxidant action: Vitamin E is believed to act as an antioxidant, preventing the propagation of free radical reactions. Vitamin E is a peroxyl radical scavenger, specifically protecting polyunsaturated fatty acids and oxygen-sensitive substances such as vitamins A and C from oxidation. There is evidence that oxidative reactions can be harmful to cells at high concentrations, contributing to chronic diseases and cellular dysfunction. Several chronic diseases are related to stress and oxidative stress including cancer; cardiovascular disease (coronary atherosclerosis and heart disease, asthma, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's syndrome, cataracts, etc.), however currently there is not enough evidence to definitively establish an association . Vitamin E also has a direct effect on tissue that is beneficial for blood vessel function. Effects on the immune system: Vitamin E inhibited the production of prostaglandin E2 and increased the immune response in mice. Furthermore, immune function declines with age, and vitamin E supplementation may reverse deficiencies in some individuals. Several studies have shown that vitamin E supplementation enhances immune responses in healthy older adults aged 65 and older, as well as young adults. Harmful effects of vitamin E deficiency: Vitamin E deficiency is rare and usually occurs only in patients who cannot absorb or have a genetic abnormality that interferes with the maintenance of normal blood levels of the vitamin. Vitamin E deficiency does not cause specific disease in adults. Manifestations of vitamin E deficiency are mainly peripheral neuropathy characterized by muscle degeneration, erythrocytosis, or enhanced in vitro hemolysis by oxidizing agents. Effects of β-carotene:
β-carotene supports patients with hematopoietic protoporphyrin (EPP) metabolism disorders against the effects of severe photosensitivity (burning, edema, erythema, pruritus). , skin lesions). The drug has no effect on the underlying biochemical abnormality of FPP (i.e. the concentrations of protoporphyrins in erythrocytes, plasma and faeces will not be altered). The exact mechanism of this effect is currently unknown. There is some evidence that the increased photosensitivity may be due to the formation of activated singlet oxygen and/or free radicals. Several in vitro studies suggest that β-carotene can block the activation of free radicals and oxygen, which may be the mechanism of action of the drug.

Pregnant women taking more than 10,000 units of vitamin A can lead to birth defects in the fetus. Therefore, women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant should not take vitamin A during the first 3 months of pregnancy or exceed 5,000 units/day (except in cases of vitamin A deficiency); Women who are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, women who are breastfeeding should be cautious and consult a doctor before taking this medicine. If selenium is taken in excess of the usual 75-150 μg dose, there is a risk of toxicity. Note not to use more than 200 μg Selenium/day; Drug interactions: Concomitant use of Selazn with anti-aldosterone or triamterene may increase urinary oxalate. Should not be used concurrently with drugs such as phosphate salts, Tetracyclines, calcium salts. The drug should be stored in a dry place, away from direct light, at a temperature below 30°C. In general, the drug Selazn helps provide vitamins C, E, vitamin A and selenium precursors, supports physical and mental health as well as prevents diseases caused by vitamin A, C, and E deficiency.
