Each capsule provides 1,000 mg of ascorbic acid (vitamin C), a water-soluble and essential nutrient. Vitamin C is required for a normal immune response and is essential for the production of collagen and adrenal hormones. Stress depletes vitamin C and modern-day diets can be low in vitamin C from natural sources. The source of this vitamin C is from corn.
This Pure Vitamin C is ascorbic acid in an unbuffered form, and may be preferred by sensitive individuals who tolerate its mild acidity.
Vitamin C is the most important water-soluble antioxidant nutrient and is involved in a wide variety of biochemical reactions throughout the body.
Humans, unlike most other mammals, cannot manufacture vitamin C, so we must rely on food or nutritional supplements. Vitamin C is stored, in the short term, in tissues throughout the body, and is especially concentrated in the adrenal glands, where it is crucial for the production of adrenal hormones involved in responding to stress.
The body uses vitamin C in immune system functions including white blood cell production, histamine release and degradation, the reduction of glutathione, and the metabolism and protection of several other nutrients.
Vitamin C is vital for a normal, healthy immune response.
Vitamin C is required for the synthesis of collagen and elastin, and is important connective tissue proteins.
