Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient well known for its vital role in the immune system. Vitamin C is also
necessary for the production of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue) and is therefore important
for skin, bone, and joint health. Vitamin C is needed for amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis,
and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron. It is also a highly effective antioxidant that
can help maintain healthy tissues by neutralizing free radicals generated during normal metabolism
and exposure to environmental stressors. This product supplies calcium ascorbate C, a buffered form
of vitamin C that is bioavailable and non-acidic. Natural color variation may occur in this product.
