Why Vitamin C & Bioflavonoids?

In Super C-Supreme, we combine vitamin C and natural bioflavonoids from lemon, eucalyptus, and acerola.

Why? Because these bioflavonoids, a catch-all term for antioxidants that give fruits and vegetables their colors, can enhance the body's absorption of vitamin C. They also have numerous health benefits - and best of all, you don't need to buy many individual products and swallow lots of pills!

Vital Health's Super C-Supreme ingredients:

Vitamin C
In the eighteenth century, sailors found that they can avoid scurvy during long voyages by eating lemons. Many years later, scientists discovered that the key ingredient is ascorbic acid or vitamin C.

Since then, we've found that vitamin C has many health benefits, including being an immunity booster and powerful antioxidant. Vitamin C can help prevent damage by free radicals, or harmful molecules that can injure cells.

Specifically, vitamin C can help lessen the severity and duration of colds and flu, help wounds heal faster, keep gums healthy, prevent heart disease, reduce the effects of aging, and so on.

Lemon Bioflavonoids
Bioflavonoids, or botanical antioxidants that give plants their color, can help improve your body's absorption of vitamin C. Bioflavonoids are often called "biological response modifiers" as they help to modify the body's response to better fight infection, allergies, and carcinogens.

Rutin (Eucalyptus)
Rutin is a specific form of bioflavonoid found in many plants, including eucalyptus. It has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic, and cytoprotective (or cell-protecting) properties.

Although its specific mode of action is not yet known, scientists think that rutin's benefits are due primarily to its antioxidant properties. In studies, rutin can scavenge and neutralize harmful superoxide radicals, and metal ions.

Several studies have also shown that rutin can help protect blood vessels and strengthen capillaries.

Hesperidin Complex
Hesperidin is the most abundant bioflavonoid in lemons and oranges. In addition to its antioxidant properties, this natural compound is also thought to reduce capillary permeability, protect blood vessels, lower cholesterol level, and have anti-inflammatory activities.

Acerola
Acerola is the fruit of a small Barbados cherry tree, which has traditionally been used to treat colds. Interestingly, scientists found that acerola fruit is one of the richest sources of vitamin C!
