Pharmacology
Mix of 5 Trace Elements is a sterile parenteral nutrition solution given into a vein. Doctors mainly use it for patients who can't get enough nutrition by mouth or through a feeding tube. Because it goes straight into the bloodstream, it bypasses the gastrointestinal system.
The body metabolises the nutrients in Mix of 5 Trace Elements and uses them in these ways: glucose gives energy. Amino acids support protein synthesis and tissue repair. Lipids and fatty acids support cellular structure and function. Vitamins, minerals and electrolytes help regulate metabolism and keep physiological functions going.
Mix of 5 Trace Elements also supports important physiological processes such as immune function, cellular repair, and making energy from stored nutrients.
