How it works
The human body does not manufacture its own vitamin C and so it must be
sourced from our diet. Stress of all kinds, including ill health and
emotional stress, increases the excretion of vitamin C from the body and
therefore raises the need for this vitamin. If dietary intake is low, or the
individual?? need is particularly high, vitamin supplementation may be of
benefit.
Vitamin C is involved in hundreds of biological processes. It is important
in immunity as it is involved in the function of white blood cells and
antibodies. It is beneficial when dealing with the symptoms of the common
cold.
Vitamin C is involved in the manufacture of collagen, an important
protein in the body. Collagen is a structural protein found in cartilage and
tendons, and it helps to support blood vessels. Due to its role in collagen
manufacture vitamin C is necessary for wound repair.
Citrus bioflavonoids have been shown to improve capillary function by
reducing fragility of capillary walls and improving capillary permeability.
