How it works:

Immune Function: 

• Vitamin C is an antioxidant required in at least 300 metabolic functions in the body. It aids in the production of an important immune system protein, interferon and protects against infection and enhances immunity.
• Overall, regular use of vitamin C shortens the duration of the common cold, but does not reduce the risk of becoming ill.

Metabolism: 

• Vitamin C is needed in the metabolism of folic acid, Tyrosine, Carnitine and phenylalanine.
• Vitamin C works synergistic with both Vitamin E and beta-carotene. Vitamin E scavenges for free radicals in cell membranes, and Vitamin C attacks free radicals in biologic fluids – so both vitamins extend each other’s antioxidant activity.

Collagen production: 

• Vitamin C is essential in the formation of collagen, a protein found in connective tissue. In this way, Vitamin C prevents bruising (by strengthening the capillaries) and keeps ligaments and tendons strong and healthy.

Gums: 

• A common sign of lesser degrees of deficiency include gums that bleed when brushed.
