A dietary supplement to support immune system function and collagen health.*
• Vitamin C:
– Helps maintain collagen*
– Helps form red blood cells*
– Provides antioxidant protection against free radicals*
– Supports the immune system*
• Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg contains Vitamin C in a buffered Ascorbate form. Ascorbate is a Vitamin C molecule with a mineral ion. All Vitamin C must link up with a mineral before it can be absorbed into the blood stream. By supplying minerals along with Vitamin C, Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg supports the immediate assimilation of Vitamin C in the body.* Because Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg is in the Ascorbate form and the presence of minerals help to act as natural buffers, it helps prevent stomach irritation that is common in non-buffered formulas.*
• Vitamin C or Ascorbic Acid belongs to a class of vitamins which are termed water-soluble nutrients. It is not stored in the body and should be replenished throughout the day and evening for optimal health.* As a water soluble vitamin, the body is able to excrete any unneeded levels of Vitamin C, which allows for flexible dosing.*
• Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg contains Bioflavonoids, which increase the effectiveness of Vitamin C by 50%.* Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc, Manganese and Potassium are included in the Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg formulations. The diuretic effect accompanying higher intake of Vitamin C often depletes the body’s store of vital minerals. Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg
provides a bioavailable source of minerals.* Pectin has been shown to be beneficial in managing cholesterol levels within normal ranges.*
• Buffered Vitamin C 1000 mg is an easy to swallow vegetarian capsule.
