The Mecob is susceptible to breaking down in the presence of light and it also gets affected by the moisture. Therefore, it should be consumed as soon as the package is opened and must be protected from the light and moisture.

Mecob works by forming myelin sheath which is used to cover and protect the nerve cells. Mecob is used to revive the nerve cells. In the absence of enough Mecob, myeline sheath doesn't form properly leading to nerve damage.
