This article examines the effect of taking the dietary supplements Toxidont May, Pantobiol 2, and Gepatobiol on the morphofunctional state of erythrocytes in patients. Cytochemical analysis of peripheral blood showed that consuming these dietary supplements for 6 weeks led to a significant increase (p< 0.05) in the concentration of sulfhydryl groups and lipoproteins in erythrocytes. An increase in the level of sulfhydryl groups indicates a decrease in the activity of lipid peroxidation processes and restoration of the antioxidant system of erythrocytes, which helps increase the duration of their circulation in the blood. Simultaneously, the strengthening of protein-lipid interactions leads to an increase in the lipoprotein content in erythrocyte membranes. Restoring the lipid composition of membranes ensures optimal functioning of erythrocytes and slows down their aging and death. This increases the resistance of cells to hypoxia and improves gas transport function. Overall, the study demonstrated that the above dietary supplements had a positive effect on the functional state of red blood cells, normalizing their cytochemical parameters and enhancing the antioxidant protection of the body's cells. This is achieved by increasing the content of sulfhydryl groups and lipoproteins in the red blood cell membranes, which contributes to the resistance of cells to the damaging effects of free radicals and improves their functional properties.
