Zentra-Injekt HP, 5-pack

Positive Effects:

• Zentra-Injekt contains the basic minerals magnesium, calcium, and potassium. 98% of the potassium cation is located inside the cell.
• Every cell needs potassium to be metabolically active.
• Magnesium improves cellular potassium utilization.
• This means sodium reduction and simultaneous increase in potassium intake.
• Magnesium: see monoinfusion
• Calcium regulates muscle contraction (antagonist to magnesium).
• Calcium is involved in neurotransmission in the nervous system through calcium channel-dependent release of neurotransmitters.
• Calcium activates the blood clotting system.
• Calcium stabilizes cell membranes.
  

Therapeutic Recommendations:There is evidence that the properties of the substances contained in the product can have a positive effect on health disorders of the mentioned indications:

• for electrolyte deficiencies
• for latent acidosis and inflammatory processes
• blood pressure regulation, hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, stroke prevention
• for oxidative or nitrosative stress: NADPH oxidase is inhibited, ROS formation is inhibited, intracellular calcium is reduced
• for type 2 diabetes mellitus, insulin resistance: insulin sensitivity is increased
• for deficits in energy metabolism (exhaustion, chronic fatigue, CFS, muscle weakness)
• for menopausal symptoms, PMS, and restlessness
• in pain therapy, including migraine, analgesic
• for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Contraindications:Do not use in children under 6 years of age. For impaired kidney, liver, or heart function, and for albumin deficiency, an adjustment of the individual dose is recommended.

Patients taking beta-blockers have an increased risk of a decompensated cardiovascular reaction, as beta-blockers inhibit the effect of adrenaline (emergency medical treatment).

Patients with a tendency to allergic reactions and/or with diseases based on histamine release (e.g., asthma) should be questioned about known allergens in accordance with the principles of therapeutic due diligence.

General Information:

• A good potassium level depends on sodium and magnesium intake. Magnesium improves cellular potassium utilization.
• The American Heart Association recommends a daily dose of 4.7 g
  potassium+ per day and only 1.5 g sodium. The molar sodium-potassium ratio should be < 1. This means sodium reduction and simultaneous increase in potassium intake.
• Acidosis leads to a shift of potassium from intracellular to extracellular. Consequences include neuromuscular dysfunctions, states of exhaustion, muscle weakness, muscle cramps, paresthesias, and cardiac arrhythmias.
• Calcium is essential for the mineralization of bone tissue and dental hard tissue. Calcium status is regulated by three hormones: 1,25-(OH)2-cholecalciferol (calcitriol), parathormone, and calcitonin.
  
• The widespread undersupply of calcium and magnesium in the population leads, with an increase in parathyroid hormone (PTH), to an increased conversion of calcidiol (25-OH-vitamin D) into calcitriol (1,25-OH-vitamin D3). The resulting shift in the balance towards calcitriol is shown in the laboratory findings as an increase in the vitamin D quotient (normal < 1). In addition to demineralization of the bone, the excessively formed calcitriol increases the influx of calcium into the cells. This results in pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative changes in cellular metabolism, such as an increase in cytokine expression and the increased formation of reactive oxygen species (radicals). The intracellular calcium influx is accompanied by an efflux of potassium and magnesium. This loss of intracellular potassium and magnesium enhances the pro-oxidative effect of calcitriol.

• Oxidative stress and pro-inflammatory processes block detoxification pathways, leading to an increase in toxins and detoxification metabolites and, consequently, again to oxidative stress, and can cause degenerative diseases.
