Description

Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has numerous biological functions. Foremost, it is essential for the synthesis of collagen and glycosaminoglycans, which are the building materials for all connective tissues, such as skin, blood vessels, tendons, joint cartilage and bone. Vitamin C is essential for normal wound healing and capillary health.

Vitamin C is among the most powerful antioxidants in humans and animals. It is a water-soluble, chain-breaking antioxidant that reacts directly with superoxide, hydroxyl radicals and singlet oxygen. As a water-soluble nutrient, vitamin C is not stored in the body and should be replenished throughout the day and evening for optimal health. However, as a water-soluble vitamin, the body is able to excrete any unneeded levels of vitamin C. Which allows for flexible and safe dosing. The antioxidant function of vitamin C appears to have clinical significance in providing protection from free radical damage to the eyes, lungs, blood and the immune system.

Besides ascorbic acid, Vitamin C Buffered 500 mg also contains bioflavonoids, which increase the effectiveness of vitamin C by 50%. Absorption efficiency and vitamin C utilization enhancing during conditions of physiological stress, such as trauma or infection.
