Enhance Nutrient Absorption
As an immune system enhancer, vitamin C provides protection from oxidation, aging, cancer, and the harmful effects of pollution. It also prevents infections. It has been shown to reduce cholesterol, reduce high blood pressure, and prevent atherosclerosis.
Vitamin C is one of the most powerful and really important anti-oxidants. Use plain old ascorbic acid for people eating fat and protein rich diets, especially on the inflammation reducing programs.
If you are on a mostly a fruit and vegetable diet, use calcium ascorbate (not this product).
A healthy daily supply Vitamin C should include Bioflavonoids from varied natural sources, but for dealing with chronic pain and inflammation (the mini-scurvy) we need to supply a large dose of good old ascorbic acid. |
