The minerals magnesium, zinc, iron and germanium, which plays an important role in all bio-chemical life and is found in the soil and water at Lourdes that also contains Pfaffic acid, allantoin,

Extract of the unsaponifiable fraction of Zea mays oils (between 20.0% and 25.0% [beta]
sitosterol).
And lathosterol, campesterol, and
sitosterol declined with dual therapy but increased with monotherapy.
However, a ratio between
sitosterol and stigmasterol was calculated for all the stations that had both sterols, and a negative linear regression was obtained between this ratio and seaward distance (Fig.
