What is Vitamin C?

Vitamin C serves as a powerful antioxidant and because it is water-soluble, any excess is excreted in the urine. A high-quality supplement is advisable when one’s dietary needs are not being met by natural vitamin C from fruits and vegetables.

Biggest Challenge with Vitamin C

• Human body cannot manufacture vitamin C
• Poor absorbability from foods and supplements
• Causes stomach and G.I. irritation

Unlike most other vitamins, the human body cannot manufacture its own vitamin C and so, eating vitamin C-rich foods or taking vitamin C supplements is the only way to prevent a vitamin C deficiency, which in its most serious form is scurvy. Unfortunately, the actual amount of vitamin C that the body can obtain from food sources is limited and similarly, most supplements have low bioavailability. Common sense dictates consuming more vitamin C, but too much vitamin C, especially in a limited time period, can irritate the stomach and G.I. lining due to its acidity. Food deserts may complicate the issue of obtaining sufficient quantities of dietary vitamin C, which would make supplementation necessary.

How Vitamin C Will Change Your Life

Supplemental vitamin C is utilized to prevent vitamin C deficiency, which is a mild but common occurrence. Modern research has shown that vitamin C’s activity goes well beyond, with some significant impacts to overall health and beauty applications (think skin elasticity). Vitamin C has a high safety and efficacy profile for its ability to regulate multiple targets within the body; any excess will be excreted. Today, Vital C-LD® offers the most potent form of vitamin C to achieve the wellness benefits your body requires most.

Vital C-LD® Benefits

Not All Vitamin Cs Are Created Equal

The two biggest problems with vitamin C supplements are (1) poor bioavailability and (2) stomach/G.I. irritation. First, with vitamin C supplements (and vitamin C-rich foods), the actual amount of vitamin C that the body absorbs is quite low. The “best” absorption rate of a supplement is only about 50%. Vital C-LD® meets this threshold, yet most other brands fall well below, as do vitamin C-rich foods. Second, vitamin C can be very irritating to the delicate tissue that lines the stomach and small intestine. Liposomal delivery technology and delayed-release capsules help address this problem. Vital C-LD® delivers superior absorption without unnecessary stomach irritation.
