Energy of Life
Complex "Energia" company Artlife gained increasing popularity among consumers due to the fact that makes it easy to carry physical and mental stress, gives strength to live a full, bright,
eventful life. New data on the effectiveness of this complex can consider it a source of additional energy, which is so necessary for people faced with a serious disease - pulmonary tuberculosis.

In today's market of products for the health of biologically active complex "energia" differs among the most active antioxidant formulas. Effectiveness of the support body by this complex highlights
study conducted by the Omsk State Medical Academy. The results of the reception of patients with pulmonary tuberculosis bioactive complex "energia" on the background of basic therapy have convincingly shown that when
his admission, not only reduces side effects of antibiotic treatment, but also increases effectiveness of primary therapy. Contemporary socio-economic conditions create a breeding ground for tuberculosis infection. The basic method of treatment of TB patients remains chemotherapy. Effectiveness of treatment of tuberculosis patients in 1993 decreased by 15 percent (according to the literature). Experts attribute this negative phenomenon to the increased share of destructive forms of tuberculosis among the sick, the increasing incidence of primary and secondary stability microbacteria tuberculosis by himpreparatam, a high proportion of comorbidity, as well as internally Puriri you because of side-effects or intolerance to their patients. Because of great importance in the pathogenesis of tuberculous inflammation, and in the mechanism of toxic action of anti-drugs on the body is oxidative stress in the resource depletion of antioxidant protection, to optimize the treatment of tuberculosis group of doctors led by AV Mordyk and LE Maltseva included in complex therapy bioactive complex "energy", contains a powerful antioxidant formula - "Tsifrol-5. Consent to the study gave 40 patients aged 18 to 45 years with newly diagnosed infiltrative pulmonary tuberculosis in the phase of decay while maintaining the cavity decay on the X-ray tomograms after receiving 60 doses of the intensive phase of chemotherapy. All patients received 4.5-protivotuberku helpful product (in accordance with standard chemotherapy regimens recommended by the Russian Ministry of Health order number 109). Patients were divided into two groups randomly: first - a core group of 20 people - received from the third month of chemotherapy, the biologically active complex "energy" on two tablets a day for two months. The remaining 20 persons made up the comparison group. The groups were equivalent in terms of age, sex and presence of comorbidity. After two months of chemotherapy in both groups detected a pronounced imbalance in the activity of antioxidant and prooxidant systems, which indicated the activation of free radical processes in tissues. The indicators characterizing the activity of prooxidant and antioxidant systems were in 4,5-5 times higher than normal values. After two months of reception of "Energia" noted marked reduction in the activity of prooxidant system and restore the activity of antioxidant system. In the comparison group in the same period, an imbalance in the system performance was preserved. In the group of patients receiving chemotherapy of tuberculosis without the complex "energia", after four months of treatment, the symptoms persisted, indicating obistoschenii adaptive reactions of the organism with a complete spending of reserves, whereas in patients treated with bioactive complex, there was normalization of adaptive reactions of the organism. Except addition, the technique of "Energia" could quickly and gently lower the anxiety level in patients with tuberculosis. Frequency of unwanted adverse reactions to antituberculosis drugs in the comparison group is shown in the table.

* - Significant differences in the control group p <0,05
As can be seen from the table, the differences in the incidence of adverse reactions to antituberculosis drugs in the first two months of chemotherapy in the comparison group was not. At a reception of "Energia"
failed to arrest the symptoms previously evolved toxic reactions to anti-TB drugs and reduce the incidence of new ones. Undesirable side reactions in the comparison group developed a 75 per cent, and
in patients treated with the complex "energia", - 15 per cent (p <0,05). Acceptance of "Energia" can cut and reduce the incidence of unwanted side effects on the central nervous system, heart and liver function, due apparently to the fact that a powerful antioxidant complex eliminated the increased activity of free radicals, which lies at the heart of these adverse reactions. Under the influence of "Ener-
Gia "foster a positive tendency to increase the effectiveness of TB treatment, which is reflected in the figure. The effectiveness of therapy is judged by two main factors: the closure of cavities in the lungs and remove bacteria. By the end of the observation period (6 months) oral disintegration closed
85 percent of patients in the first group and in 65 percent of patients in the second group, sputum ceased in 95 percent of patients in the first group and 80 percent in the second.
Conclusion
Thus, the designation of "Energia" in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis has clearly shown
antioxidant activity of the complex, which had a protective effect, reducing the level of adverse reactions to
of the major organs and systems, as well as helped to improve the clinical picture
Commented scientific consultant of the Company Artlife MD Natalia Shilov:
Impressive were the results of the use of "Energia" in the adjunctive therapy of pulmonary tuberculosis. The most valuable of them increase the effectiveness of treatment for the disease in patients receiving complex. The fact that the reason for the decline itself often serves a variety of side effects of TB drugs. So, some of them are not safe for the central nervous system, some - significant side effects related to skin reactions (itching, rash), breach of mineral metabolism (muscle pain, cramps). And virtually all anti-TB drugs - are toxic, they affect the liver, causing drug-induced hepatitis. Such a wide range of side effects sometimes forced to replace a number of drugs on the other, changing regimens that may reduce the therapeutic effect or an increase in the duration of treatment. In this situation, could not be more welcome by the way have compositions with high antioxidant potential, such as bioactive complex "energy", significantly reduces the toxic effects of drugs. This complex ensures the supply of antioxidants (bioflavonoids, antioxidant enzymes: superoksidismutazy and catalase) that support the optimal level of antioxidant processes in the body that inhibit the toxic effects of drugs. In addition,
Complex has a powerful protective effect against its own antioxidant resources, restoring the activity of natural systems, protect against free radicals. An additional advantage of "Energia" is that it normalizes the main regulatory body systems, improves microcirculation and increases the activity of natural resistance, which is responsible for antimicrobial defense. All of this favorable effect on the tolerability of the body complex and in many respects an aggressive anti-TB therapy, improving its results.
