Aries Supplement 20 Capsules

Aries Food supplement based on rhodiola rosea extract L, malpighia glabra extract L, vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, niacin, folate, pantothenic acid and vitamin E. Rhodiola rosea extract has a tonic-adaptogenic effect, tonic for physical and mental fatigue and helps maintain a normal mood. Malpighia glabra (acerola) extract promotes the body's natural defenses and has a supporting, restorative and antioxidant effect. Vitamin B2, vitamin B6, vitamin B12, niacin, folate and pantothenic acid contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin E contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress.
Rhodiola rosea extract
From the tonic-adaptogen effect, tonic effect for physical and mental fatigue and promotes the maintenance of normal mood [1]. Rhodiola rosea extract is able to promote the normal functions of the nervous system and support the body in adapting to stressful conditions. Rhodiola rosea has an adaptogenic effect, as it is able to influence various physiological parameters including neurotransmitters, central nervous system activity and cardiovascular function [2]. Studies conducted on the animal model have demonstrated the ability of the extract to increase physical performance under exertion [3] by preventing the perturbation of the stress axis [4]. Studies conducted in humans have shown its usefulness in asthenic conditions that develop following intense physical or intellectual activity, infections or other diseases [5]. They also highlighted that Rhodiola rosea can be a useful adjuvant in mood problems and in promoting attention, resistance to fatigue and performance in work, study, sport and in the usual daily activities [6,7,8 , 9]. The adaptogenic properties of Rhodiola rosea have been mainly attributed to its ability to influence the levels and activity of biogenic monoamines (serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline), to facilitate the transport of neurotransmitters [10,11] and to activate receptors of the nervous system [12].
Malpighia glabra extract
It favors the body's natural defenses and has a supporting, restorative and antioxidant effect [1,13]. This extract is particularly rich in vitamin C and is also a source of beta-carotene [14].
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid)
They are due to its ability to oxidize and reduce reversibly. Ascorbic acid is the cofactor of enzymes that catalyze hydroxylation reactions, including the hydroxylation of DOPA for the formation of adrenaline and the hydroxylation of aromatic compounds in the liver. It also intervenes in cellular defense processes, favoring the elimination of free radicals through the donation of an electron to the tocopheryl-radical and thus regenerating the anti-radical activity of vitamin E. Vitamin C favors the reduction of folic acid in its coenzymatic forms and intestinal absorption of iron. It is also involved in the synthesis of carnitine, useful for the synthesis of ATP, and in the metabolism of various hormones.
Vitamins of the B complex contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue [15] as they are involved in functions.
Vitamin B2
In the form of two flavin coenzymes (flavinmononucleotide or FMN and flavindinucleotide or FAD), it constitutes the prosthetic group of enzymes that intervene in redox reactions, in particular in the oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvic acid, in the oxidation of fatty acids and amino acids and in the transport of electrons in the respiratory chain [16].
Vitamin B6
It is found linked to numerous enzymes that are involved for the most part in the reactions of the metabolism of amino acids and other nitrogenous substances (transamination, decarboxylation and racemization). The good use of dietary proteins depends on the intake of this vitamin. Vitamin B6 is also involved in some reactions of glucose (glycogenolysis) and lipid (synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids) metabolism.
Vitamin B12
It participates in reactions such as the conversion of methylmalonyl-CoA to succinyl-CoA in the metabolism of propionic acid which derives from the catabolism of fatty acids or some amino acids. It is also involved in the metabolism of methyl, and therefore in the synthesis of methionine from homocysteine and other methylated compounds [17].
Niacin
In the form of coenzymes (nicotin adenin dinucleotide or NAD and nicotin adenin dinucleotide phosphate or NADP) it participates in numerous redox reactions, both in catabolic and anabolic processes, such as the synthesis of fatty acids and amino acids.
Folate
It has the function of transferring the monocarbon units from one compound to another in the metabolism of amino acids and in the synthesis of nucleic acids and plays an essential role in many metabolic reactions in which vitamin B12 is also involved. In fact, it participates in the biosynthesis of DNA and RNA, in the methylation of homocysteine to methionine and in the metabolism of some amino acids (interconversion between glycine and serine and histidine catabolism).
Pantothenic acid
It is the precursor of coenzyme A, a fundamental molecule in the metabolism of carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids and steroid compounds. Pantothenic acid also enters the composition of the prosthetic group of Acyl-Carrier-Protein (ACP), a transport protein involved in the synthesis of fatty acids.
Vitamin E
It contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress [15]: it is the main fat-soluble antioxidant of the cellular antioxidant defense system. Inside the phospholipid bilayer of cell membranes, it protects the polyunsaturated fatty acids of the membranes from oxidation [18].
