Ekoton Forte

Pharmacological properties

Succinic acid is a natural biogenic metabolite of the body with an intracellular energy-synthesising function associated with stimulating the breakdown of glucose and the synthesis of ATP. The substance has strong antioxidant properties aimed at protecting cell membranes and preserving the integrity of mitochondria — the main energy reactors of cells, needed to supply the body with energy. Ascorbic acid is an active antioxidant; it performs the biological functions of a reducing agent and a coenzyme of metabolic processes needed for the synthesis of compounds important to the body, such as hormones, interferons and bile acids. It takes part in the main stages of erythropoiesis and in the metabolism of folic acid and iron, and is actively involved in forming the body’s immune status.
