The invention relates to a food supplement containing minerals and/or vitamins, a humectant and, for example, essential oils. The food supplement is formulated as an oral spray. In particular, the invention relates to a concentrated food supplement in the form of an oral spray, containing a combination of magnesium ions, panthenol (vitamin B5), caffeine, menthol aroma and/or peppermint aroma, and a humectant. The food supplement is particularly suited for use in sport and in stressful situations.

The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising an immunoglobulin Fc region and an IL-7 fusion protein. Specifically, when a fusion protein comprising the immunoglobulin Fc region and IL-7 is administered to an affected area, a strong immune response is induced in the body and thus allows human papillomavirus-caused diseases to be prevented or treated.
