Vitamin C Benefits and Efficacy
The vast majority of vitamin C in the human body is contained in the adrenal glands where it is produced at particularly high levels during times of stress. Physical stresses, such as ingestion of heavy metals and other toxins, exposure to UV rays, and exposure to extreme temperatures, are the sources of oxidative damage and cellular degeneration. These stressors signal the need for increased production of vitamin C in the adrenal gland so that its antioxidant properties can be used to scavenge for free radicals and reduce oxidative stress at its source.
This potent and highly effective Vitamin C Powder from Life Extension contains four buffering minerals, in addition to the highest quality of ascorbic acid. When mixed with water, this product produces a reduced-acid solution that is non-irritating to the stomach and intestinal lining. The minerals also make it a more pleasant-tasting and healthful drink. The substances used in this product make it effervesce for a short while when it is mixed with water.
