      - Folic Acid. - Folic acid plays one of the most important tasks in the metabolism of amino acids and protein synthesis (especially in the production of DNA and RNA) and the repair of chromosomes, so it is essential for normal cell proliferation, and growth of tissues. Low levels of folate increase the risk of heart disease and cancer. When there is a little introduction of folate in the body, reduces the level of folic acid in the blood increases the level of homocysteine, a major cardiovascular risk factors, and amending the terms and timing reproduction of red blood cells and white blood cells.


      - Vitamin E (Tocopherol). - Vitamin E is a mixture of tocopherols, the most important thing is the tocopherol A. Numerous studies have demonstrated the importance of this vitamin to increase the antioxidant power of the cells. Each molecule of vitamin E protects the oxidation of 1000 fatty acid molecules. The resistance of LDL to oxidation increases the supply of oral vitamin E. A study conducted for 8 years has shown that vitamin E is achieved by a reduction in heart disease 64%. They needed 30 mg of vitamin E per day. Vitamin E is the most important antioxidant nutrient and delaying ageing due to oxidation, reinforces the walls of capillaries and prevents sterility. There are: the synthetic vitamin and vitamin naturally. The natural vitamin E is four times higher than synthetic. His absence creates fragility of platelets and red blood cells and tissues from oxidation. Vitamin E and heart: Numerous studies have shown that the introduction of vitamin E in large quantities can reduce the risk of heart attack and brain haemorrhage. In a study sponsored by the World Health Organization (Monica study) have seen an inverse relationship between the level of antioxidant and ischemic heart disease, this ratio increases with vitamin E.
