Vitamin C has powerful antioxidant activity, neutralising free radicals and protecting against oxidative damage. Bioflavonoids are organic plant pigments that occur naturally with vitamin C. They increase the bio-availability and absorption of vitamin C.

Vitamin C is needed for a for healthy immune function and to support the body’s defences against infection.

Vitamin C plays an important role in the formation of collagen needed for skin, bones, cartilage, and muscles. Vitamin C and bioflavonoids are particularly effective at maintaining the integrity and elasticity of blood vessels.

Vitamin C helps maintain cardiovascular health and can reduce the bad fats and improve the health of the blood. Recent research suggests that vitamin C also behaves as an essential catalyst.

Vitamin C is made by almost every mammal except humans. Because it is water soluble, it cannot be stored in the body long-term, therefore it is important to maintain regular intake.
