Alanerv
1 softgel capsule daily. Take Alanerv on a full stomach.Alpha-lipoic acid, -linolenic acid, selenium and vitamin B-complex with vitamin E.Food supplement with antioxidant effect on free radicals, with action on cell trophism and helps protect the nervous cells.Shots may hurt a little, but the diseases they can prevent are a lot worse. Some are even life-threatening. Immunization shots, or vaccinations, are essential. They protect against things like measles, mumps, rubella, hepatitis B, polio, diphtheria, tetanus, and pertussis (whooping cough). Immunizations are important for adults as well as children.Your immune system helps your body fight germs by producing substances to combat them. Once it does, the immune system "remembers" the germ and can fight it again. Vaccines contain germs that have been killed or weakened. When given to a healthy person, the vaccine triggers the immune system to respond and thus build immunity.
