Vitakruid Buffered Vitamin C 180 Vegan Capsules

Vitamin C as a readily absorbable calcium/magnesium ascorbate

Ascorbic acid is by far the best-known form of vitamin C. It is therefore the variant naturally found in our food and in most vitamin C supplements. This acidic form can cause stomach and intestinal irritation in high doses. We have combined our immune-boosting favorite with calcium/magnesium ascorbate, resulting in a more suitable form for higher doses of vitamin C. Its mineral-bound structure helps neutralize the acidity of vitamin C, making the nutrient more friendly to the stomach and intestines. Moreover, its deacidified nature ensures higher bioavailability, resulting in significantly better absorption.

Antioxidants manganese, zinc, and copper for immune support

In the Buffered Vitamin C® formula, we have also included the trace elements manganese, zinc, and copper. These are so-called superoxide dismutase enzymes (SOD) that play a role in scavenging free radicals. These free radicals are oxidants that arise during oxidation in the mitochondria, the energy center of our cells.

SOD has several unique properties. For example, the antioxidants are not used up in combating free radicals. This allows the trace elements to remain functional in the fight against oxidants. Manganese, zinc, and copper therefore serve as valuable additions to this immunity formula.

Zinc is an important mineral for immunity

Zinc is considered one of the most important trace elements for our body. The mineral contributes to numerous biochemical processes, including protein synthesis, cell division, and tissue formation. Furthermore, zinc has a positive effect on immunity.

Copper for better iron transport

Zinc and copper are also antagonists. This means that an increased zinc intake leads to a decreased copper status. That is why we have included copper in Buffered Vitamin C® in addition to zinc. But copper, like zinc, also has a positive effect on the immune system. In addition to directly supporting the immune system, copper also supports iron transport in the body.

Dosage

Take 1 to 3 capsules per day. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
