How it Works
Vitamin C is an antioxidant, and it performs many functions involving the immune system and tissue development. It is involved in iron absorption and in the syntheses of enzymes, hormones and proteins. The adrenal glands need large amounts of this nutrient in order to support immunity and help produce energy. Water-soluble, vitamin C is easily washed from the body and needs to be replaced constantly. Without vitamin C, the body cannot make collagen, the substance that holds the body’s cells together and maintains skin integrity. These buffered ascorbates are easier on the stomach and may benefit people who have difficulty taking higher potencies of ascorbic acid.
Add approximately 1 slightly rounded teaspoon (4.5 grams) to a glass of liquid and stir vigorously. Take once daily.
1,800 mg Vitamin C per serving, plus calcium, potassium and magnesium ascorbates; acerola fruit extract; rutin and hesperidin bioflavonoid extract.
