Igennus VegeCO 90 tablets
VegeCO and MiniVegeCO are specifically formulated vitamin and mineral co-factor supplements, which supply the body with the nutrients necessary for enzyme-mediated conversions of omega fatty acids.
Co-factor vitamins and minerals are crucial for the optimum absorption of omega fats in the body, owing to the complex conversions involved at a cellular level. The metabolism of omega fats by the human body is dependent on the presence of certain enzymes which act as catalysts in the omega-3 and omega-6 conversions, as well as the conversion into anti-inflammatory eicosanoids vital hormones including prostaglandins and leukotrienes. To ensure that the enzyme-mediated conversions of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids function properly, co-factors must be present. VegeCO and MiniVegeCO (child formulation) provide the co-factors necessary to aid the enzyme conversions involved in fatty acid metabolism, ensuring maximum possible health benefits. Deliberately formulated at levels below the RDAs, these supplements are intended to "top up" the levels of vitamins and minerals and should not be taken as a substitute for a balanced diet. Ultimately, your aim should be to improve your diet so that supplementation is no longer necessary.

Directions for Use
VegeCO and MiniVegeCO are formulated so that one tablet daily supplies the vitamins and minerals needed to ensure that enzymes and enzyme-mediated conversions function properly in the body, while also being safely within the RDAs (Recommended Daily Allowance). Each box contains a 3-month supply of 90 tablets.
For those with a particularly deficient diet, or significantly low levels of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in the body (your doctor can test your red blood cells to ascertain fatty acid levels) it is possible to increase the dose to two tablets of VegeCO or MiniVegeCO daily until these deficiencies are rectified.
