Potassium. It helps get rid of edema, stabilizes the gastrointestinal tract, normalizes blood pressure, maintains the acid-base balance in the blood, participates in the transmission of nerve impulses, and in the synthesis of proteins and enzymes necessary for the body.
Vitamin C. There is no need to introduce it, it is already known to everyone. But we will still write about its important qualities. Vitamin C helps our immune system cope with attacks from viruses and bacteria, strengthens it, and has a positive effect on the functioning of the cardiovascular system. Accelerates the process of regeneration, that is, wound healing. Participates in the synthesis of several hormones. Normalizes capillary permeability. Necessary for the body to produce an important protein - collagen.
Vitamin E. Its second name is tocopherol. A very powerful antioxidant, it protects every cell from the harmful effects of free radicals. Thanks to it, the condition of the skin improves, its healthy color, elasticity, and smoothness return. Hair and nails also become stronger under the influence of vitamin E. It is not without reason that it is called the beauty vitamin. Vitamin E also strengthens the immune system, dilates blood vessels, and makes capillary walls denser and more elastic.
High-quality squash caviar contains pectin substances. They contribute to the formation of healthy intestinal microflora and also stimulate peristalsis.
