Vitamin C, Premier
60 vegetarian capsules / bottle
It is very important to take a live source vitamin C supplement as opposed to the over the counter imposter vitamin C's which are usually ascorbic acid or some other synthetic, lab made vitamin C. These do not give you the health benefits of a live source, botanical vitamin C.
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, responsible for over 300 metabolic functions in the body. Vitamin C protects against abnormal blood clotting, helps prevent cancer, protects against infection, reduces "bad cholesterol", reduces they symptoms of asthma, and attacks free radicals. Vitamin C also helps remove harmful heavy metals from the body, protects from radiation, supports adrenal function, assists tissue growth and repair and keeps gums healthy.
According to The Clinician's Handbook of Natural Medicine, many diabetics have an intracellular deficiency of vitamin C and would benefit from supplementation. Vitamin C assists in the production of collagen, the main protein substance of connective tissue. It is vital for wound repair and reduces the generation of compounds linked to diabetes mellitus complications.
More benefits of Vitamin C include:
- healthy gums
- prevention of excess bruising
- enhanced immune function
- assists manufacture of neurotransmitters
- assists manufacture of hormones
- reduces hypertension
- increases blood flow
- improves arterial stiffness
- inhibits glycosylation of proteins
