Histamine Control
Histamine is often perceived negatively, especially for its role in allergic reactions and intolerance. As with many things in life, black-and-white thinking is not suitable for this biogenic amine. As a neurotransmitter, it participates in many critical processes. In defending the body, for example, it supports the enlargement of blood vessels, making it easier for immune cells to access the site of inflammation. At the same time, it stimulates the production of gastric juices (essential for food processing), regulates the sleep cycle, controls appetite, and plays a role in learning, memory, and emotions. Histamine naturally occurs in the human body, and its balance is crucial for health. In the digestive system, it's broken down by the enzyme diamine oxidase. However, if histamine intake is greater than the body can break down, histamine intolerance develops. This imbalance can be caused by stress, poor lifestyle, medicines, or other factors. Excess histamine can lead to unpleasant symptoms, often resembling food allergies or digestive issues. It's essential to understand histamine as an important helper in our body.

B-komplex
Z detstva si slovko "békomplex" pamätám veľmi dobre av podstate som nikdy nevedel o čo presne ide. Mladším ročníkom zrejme pod týmto slovkom v hlave nabehne drum&bass, pretože pod menom B-Complex vystupuje slovenský DJ a producent Matúš Lenický (hit Beautiful Lies). Ak budeme prísne vedeckí, tak B komplex je skupina vitamínov B1 až B12 .
Cholín a Inozitol
Cholín a Inozitol - dve slovká, ktoré ste pravdepodobne ešte nepočuli. Vo svetle doplnkov však ide o dôležité výživové doplnky skupiny B, ktoré však vlastne sú vitamínmi. Ide o látky, vitamíny veľmi podobné, ktoré podporujú funkciu pečene a látkovú premenu lipidov - čiže metabolizmus tukov. Cholín je vo vode rozpustný vitamín. Vyskytuje sa v Lecitíne, ktorý je bežný v mnohých rastlinných a živočíšnych tkanivách. Cholín je prekurzor pre neurotransmiter (teda prenášač) acetylcholín - ten sa podieľa na mnohých funkciách pamäti a svalovej činnosti.
Vitamín B1 Tiamín
Vitamín B1 patrí do skupín B1 až B12, ktoré označujeme pod spoločným názvom B-komplex. Pod týmto menom je potrebné doplniť všetky vitamíny tejto skupiny. Čo však potrebujem len jeden z nich? Potrebujete aj celú skupinu - tie najdôležitejšie vitamíny zo skupiny B je možné dostať samostatne.
