- ascorbic acid: has an antioxidant effect, helps to increase the body's resistance to various infections; essential for the functioning of immunocompetent blood cells, plays an important role in the formation of collagen, which constitutes a significant part of the material of the skin, teeth, cartilage, bones, connective tissues; promotes the absorption of inorganic iron from the digestive tract;
- alpha-tocopherol: is a cofactor of some enzyme systems, has an antioxidant effect, due to which it inhibits the development of free radical reactions, prevents the formation of peroxides that damage cell and subcellular membranes, which is important for the development of the body, the normal functioning of the nervous and muscular system; in combination with selenium inhibits the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids and prevents hemolysis of erythrocytes;
- thiamine: plays an important role in energy, protein and fat metabolism; as an integral part of coenzyme, it is an important component of carbohydrate metabolism for the decarboxylation of keto acids; affects the conduction of nervous excitement in cholinergic synapses;
- riboflavin: indispensable for the growth of the body; by regulating redox processes, it has a metabolic effect; participates in tissue respiration, utilization of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, regulates the state of the peripheral and central nervous system, positively affects vision;
- pyridoxine: plays a key role in the normal functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system, participates in hematopoiesis, nucleic acid synthesis, improves liver function, regulates phosphorus-calcium metabolism;
- cyanocobalamin: stimulates erythropoiesis, improves memory and concentration, ensures the normal functioning of the nervous system;
- nicotinamide: participates in the metabolism of amino acids, fat and carbohydrate metabolism, oxidation-reduction processes in the cell, stabilizes the processes of tissue respiration;
- calcium pantothenate: part of coenzyme A, due to which it plays an important role in the processes of oxidation and acetylation; accelerates regeneration processes, improves energy supply of myocardial contractile function, takes part in the synthesis of steroid hormones and acetylcholine, fat and carbon metabolism;

- magnesium: plays an important role in the regulation of contractile function and ensuring the electrical stability of myocardial cells, takes part in the synthesis of neuropeptides in the brain and is responsible for the transmission of inhibitory signals to muscles and peripheral nerves;
- iron: takes part in the processes of hematopoiesis; in combination with zinc additionally stimulates hematopoiesis;
- zinc: found in a large number of body enzymes; its insufficiency is associated with short stature, increased morbidity, decreased immunity;
- copper: takes part in the processes of energy exchange, the formation of erythrocytes and hemoglobin;
- manganese: stimulates the synthesis of immunoglobulins, is a component of superoxide dismutase, which plays an important role in protecting the body from the harmful effects of peroxide radicals;
- chromium: takes part in the synthesis of insulin, reduces the amount of lipid peroxidation products, interacts with free radicals, reactive oxygen species, stabilizes cell membranes;
- selenium: part of glutathione peroxidase, which protects biological membranes from the damaging effects of free radicals;
