Vitamin C
Vitamin C, (also known as Ascorbic Acid) is a water soluble vitamin that is used by the metabolism in many important ways. It helps activates numerous enzymes, has an important role in cell respiration, and offers protection against stress. It assists in the absorption of iron, and, together with folic acid and vitamin B12, stimulates red blood cell production. It helps support the functioning of the nervous system, and it participates in the structural formation of bone, blood vessels, connective tissue and collagen. It is also an excellent anti-oxidant, helping to protect cells against damage caused by free radicals.
Other than the aforementioned functions, metabolic demand for Vitamin C may be increased by such things as physical activity, smoking, drinking, lack of rest, illness, or medications. As Vitamin C is water soluble, it is not stored in the body, but passes out of the metabolism relatively quickly. CaliVita® Vitamin C products are formulated for timed-release, continuous absorption. thereby ensuring sustained bioavailability
In advanced formulas such as C Plus, Vitamin C is combined with bioflavonoids (sometimes referred to as Vitamin P) which promote absorption and utilization.. Together with vitamin C, bioflavanoids help provide nutritional support for a healthy circulatory system.
