VITAMIN C is necessary for the production of collagen, an important building component of blood vessels, ligaments, and bones. It also plays an important role in the synthesis of norepinephrine (an important neurotransmitter). It is also necessary for the synthesis of carnitine (transfers fatty acids into the mitochondria).
Recent studies have shown that it affects the catabolism of cholesterol to bile acids and in turn reduces the possibility of developing gallbladder disease. Vitamin C increases the bioavailability of iron from food intake, through a greater absorption of mineral iron via the intestinal system.
VITAMIN C is a potent and effective antioxidant, which protects the organism against free radicals and Reactive Oxygen Species that are created during natural metabolism. It has the ability to regenerate Vitamin E. Recent studies in smokers have shown that Vitamin C regenerates Vitamin E from its oxidized form.
VITAMIN C stimulates the production and function of white blood cells, especially neutrophils, lymphocytes and phagocytes. Vitamin C protects the integrity of the immune system’s cells. Neutrophils, lymphocytes, and phagocytes accumulate Vitamin C in high concentrations, which in turn protect these types of cells from oxidative damages. Vitamin C, through its antioxidant action, protects white blood cells from self-oxidation by enhancing their glutathione levels. Clinical studies have shown that Vitamin C improves the vasodilation in people with cardiovascular problems.
FAST ACTION C FORMULA contains piperine, which increases the rate of absorption of Vitamin C. As a result, a high concentration of Vitamin C can be detected in the blood in only 30 minutes
FAST ACTION C FORMULA contains the best and most absorbable forms of Vitamin C from camu camu and acerola.
