Vitamin C is necessary for healthy mucous membranes (sinuses), joint repair, and skin elasticity, as well as eye, nervous system, bone, and dental health. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, which protects cell membranes and helps prevent destructive bacterial and viral penetration of the cell wall. Because of its essential role in good health, vitamin C may be the most important individual nutrient to supplement in addition to your dietary intake.
The acidic nature of vitamin C makes this nutrient not well tolerated by some individuals' stomach, teeth, or colon. The acidic nature of even buffered vitamin C causes it to be excreted after 4 hours.
A recent study conducted at Drew University of Medicine revealed that Ultra Potent C was easily tolerated with several remarkable advantages. Through an exact spectrum of biological components, Ultra Potent C has superior absorption and retention, initiating a powerful biological response at the cellular level. This product also initiates up to 25% increased vitamin C uptake and retention in white blood cells when compared to ascorbic acid.
Ultra Potent C contains glutathione, a major antioxidant and detoxifier. Using a 1 daily maintenance dose, I confidently refer to this product as being very affective in reducing sinus episodes and boosting overall immunity. Up to 5 daily is suggested in impending immune system compromises. Patient response has made Ultra Potent C the only vitamin C I use in my office.
