The Many Benefits of Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient well known for its vital role in the immune system. Vitamin C is also necessary for the production of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue) and is therefore important for skin, bone, and joint health.* Vitamin C is needed for amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron.* It is also a highly effective antioxidant that can help maintain healthy tissues by neutralizing free radicals generated during normal metabolism and exposure to environmental stressors.* This product utilizes calcium ascorbate, a buffered form of vitamin C that is bioavailable and non-acidic, and is enhanced with bioflavonoids, which work synergistically to support vitamin C utilization.*
Vitamin C has many benefits for our bodies. For one, it helps boost our immune system. It does this by helping our bodies produce white blood cells, which are key to fighting off infection. Vitamin C is also necessary for the production of collagen. Collagen is a structural protein that gives our skin its elasticity. So not only does vitamin C help fight off infection, but it also helps keep our skin looking young and healthy.
Vitamin C is needed for amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients. This means that it helps our bodies break down food and convert it into energy. It also helps us synthesize important chemicals in our brains.
Vitamin C is also a powerful antioxidant. Antioxidants are substances that help protect our cells from damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals are generated during normal metabolism or from exposure to environmental stressors like pollution or UV rays from the sun. By neutralizing free radicals, vitamin C helps maintain healthy tissues.
This product utilizes calcium ascorbate, a buffered form of vitamin C that is bioavailable and non-acidic. Calcium ascorbate is easier on the stomach than other forms of vitamin C because it doesn’t cause the same level of irritation. It’s also enhanced with bioflavonoids, which are plant pigments that have health-promoting properties. Bioflavonoids work synergistically with vitamin C to support its utilization.*
In Summary:
Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient with many benefits for our bodies.* It helps boost our immune system, keeps our skin looking young and healthy, aids in digestion, and protects our cells from damage.* This product utilizes calcium ascorbate, a buffered form of vitamin C that is bioavailable and non-acidic, and is enhanced with bioflavonoids to support vitamin C utilization.* If you’re looking for a supplement to add to your daily routine, consider giving this one a try!*
