Scientific information about natural vitamin C ingredients

Although vitamin C is mostly found in citrus fruit, vegetables such as broccoli, peppers and Brussels sprouts are also very high in vitamin C. The problem is that fresh produce left exposed to air could lose 30% to 49% of its nutrition in a period of 3 to 24 hours (depending on the food and exposure). Processing and storage can also lead to a reduction of 90% plus in the vitamin C content.

Vitamin C is one of the nutrients that the body needs and cannot manufacture itself, and therefore needs to come from the diet or supplementation.

Buffered vitamin C is a form of vitamin C that minimises the gastric discomfort or acidic irritation that some people experience with plain ascorbic acid.

Fat-soluble vitamin C is retained in the body for far longer periods of time, and supports the transport of vitamin C to the heart, brain and central nervous system.

The herbal vitamin C sources: acerola, citrus bioflavonoids, hesperidin, rutin and rose hip are concentrated natural sources of vitamin C and plant flavonoids, included to complement the vitamin C in this formula and support its absorption.

Zinc and selenium support the production, function and absorption of many substances such as vitamins, minerals and amino acids, and contribute to normal immune function.
