Health Labs Nutra Extra-Strength Vitamin C 1,000mg with Rose Hips – Promotes Optimal Immune Health (100 Fast-Acting Tablets)
#HealthLabsNutraVitC
I don’t eat as well of a
balanced diet as I should have, so I try to get all the vitamins and minerals
that I am not getting through diet through supplements. I got these vitamin C
pills to help my immune system and for healing. I was a little disappointed
that these weren’t chewable tablets. I really like the taste of the chewable
vitamin C and sometimes like eating them as if they were candy.
These pills are huge. Like
horse pills. I don’t like how big the pills are and how difficult they are to
swallow. 4 stars.
Vitamin C, also known as
L-ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin that is naturally present in some
foods, added to others, and available as a dietary supplement. Humans, unlike
most animals, are unable to synthesize vitamin C endogenously, so it is an
essential dietary component.
Vitamin C is required for the biosynthesis of collagen,
L-carnitine, and certain neurotransmitters; vitamin C is also involved in
protein metabolism. Collagen is an essential component of connective tissue,
which plays a vital role in wound healing. Vitamin C is also an important
physiological antioxidant and has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants
within the body, including alpha-tocopherol (vitamin E). Ongoing research is
examining whether vitamin C, by limiting the damaging effects of free radicals
through its antioxidant activity, might help prevent or delay the development
of certain cancers, cardiovascular disease, and other diseases in which
oxidative stress plays a causal role. In addition to its biosynthetic and
antioxidant functions, vitamin C plays an important role in immune function and
improves the absorption of nonheme iron, the form of iron present in
plant-based foods. Insufficient vitamin C intake causes scurvy, which is
characterized by fatigue or lassitude, widespread connective tissue weakness,
and capillary fragility.
