Berocca is a unique combination of vitamins and nutrients which is clinically proven to support mental performance and physical wellbeing. Compared with most other multivitamins, Berocca offers all B vitamins and vitamin C (the so called water-soluble vitamins) in a specific dosage together with the minerals calcium, magnesium and zinc. All these micro-nutrients are essential for brain and nerve functions and work in synergy for sustained mental performance.

Each tablet (effervescent and film coated) contains:

Berocca is recommended to all individuals carrying a risk of not getting enough vitamins and minerals from their diet.

Micronutrient deficiencies and cognitive performance:
The water soluble B vitamins, vitamin C and the mineral micronutrients magnesium and zinc are stored in the body only to a limited extent and upon any reduction of intake, impairment of absorption or increase in requirements, the body status begins to fall and may start to become deficient. The prolonged inadequate intake of all or any of the micronutrients in Berocca can have direct physiological effects on body and brain function and therefore on performance (as noted in Table 1 below).

With the recommended dosage of one tablet per day, Berocca has an exceptionally high safety profile. All Berocca ingredients are at levels well below the so called Upper Safety Levels, which have been officially established for vitamins and minerals by internationally accepted institutions like the US Institute of Medicine or the European Scientific Committee. In addition and compared with most other multivitamins, Berocca offers water-soluble vitamins only, of which any surplus will not be retained in the body.

Like for all other multivitamins allergic reactions can not be completely excluded. For further information, please refer to the patient information leaflet.
