A combination of vitamin C, bioflavonoids and natural rosehips shown to improve immune health.

Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps protect against cell damage and supports your immune system. It also supports bone and joint health and helps reduce LDL cholesterol oxidation. Vitamin C can’t be made by the body or stored, so we recommend supplementing with 500 mg daily.

Scientific Support for Vitamin C

• As an antioxidant, vitamin C is superb at fighting free radicals—one of the main contributors to endothelial dysfunction and LDL cholesterol oxidation. Supplemental vitamin C has been found to support endothelium-dependent activities.¹
  
• A controlled trial found that Vitamin C helps reduce lipid peroxide levels and oxidative stress.²
  
• Vitamin C supplementation supports the recycling of Vitamin E. A placebo-controlled trial found that vitamin C supplementation increased blood levels of vitamin E. The reverse was also found in that Vitamin E supplementation increased vitamin C levels in the blood.³
  
• It appears that vitamin C stimulates collagen production at the genetic expression level.⁴⁵
