America’s Favorite Vitamin
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is an essential nutrient that must be obtained from the diet or through supplementation. It is found only in fruits and vegetables and is most abundant in fresh, uncooked foods. Because vitamin C is easily destroyed during the cooking process, supplementation is a great way to ensure that you receive proper amounts of this essential vitamin.
Ascorbic acid, first isolated from lemons in 1932, prevents scurvy and is beneficial in fighting many other illnesses and nutritional deficiencies. Perhaps the most important function of vitamin C is in the formation and maintenance of collagen, the basis of connective tissue, which is found in skin, ligaments, cartilage, vertebral discs, joint linings, capillary walls and the bones and teeth. Collagen and Vitamin C are needed to give support and shape to the body to help wounds heal and to maintain healthy blood vessels. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, helping to protect other vitamins from oxidation and a great immune system booster.
BENEFITS:
HOW IT WORKS:
Vitamin C is an antioxidant, and it performs many functions involving the immune system and tissue development. It is involved in iron absorption and in the syntheses of enzymes, hormones and proteins. The adrenal glands need large amounts of this nutrient in order to support immunity and help produce energy. Water-soluble, it is easily washed from the body and needs to be constantly replaced. Without vitamin C the body cannot make collagen, the substance that holds the body’s cells together and maintains skin integrity.
NSP ADVANTAGE:
Children (and adults!) can enjoy the protective effects of vitamin C in a chewable tablet. These wafers are made with vitamin C and whole orange juice, freeze-dried to preserve natural nutrients and the vitamin complex. Each wafer supplies 410 percent of the Daily Value of vitamin C, has natural orange and lemon-lime flavor and contains absolutely no artificial colorings, artificial sweeteners or sucrose (sweetened with fructose).
SCIENTIFIC SUPPORT:
Studies have shown that people under severe emotional or environmental stress require a higher intake of vitamin C. Research has shown that cigarettes and oral contraceptives can drain the body’s levels of vitamin C. People who are at risk in this way should be sure to get extra vitamin C in order to meet the daily requirements. A top European researcher found that vitamin C boosts mental alertness, enhances intelligence and reinforces powers of concentration.
