Bio-C™
High-Potency Vitamin C (Protection Against Cancer and Heart Disease)

The human body does not produce Vitamin C. All of this important nutrient requirement must be obtained through our diet, which are frequently deficient in vitamins. Lifestyle factors such as smoking, environmental pollutants and food processing technique can impact the level of vitamin C in your body. In addition, vitamin C is not stored in the body, so it must be replaced daily.

Vitamin C helps to strengthen capillaries and cell walls. It is crucial for the formation of collagen and elastin, which are the reinforcement rods of the body. Current clinical evidence suggests that the lack of adequate amounts of vitamin C over a period of years results in the breakdown of the collagen and elastin structure of the blood vessel walls. This breakdown leads to tiny, microscopic cracks or fissures in the walls. Cholesterol globules, surrounded by sticky lipoprotein molecules, lodge in these cracks forming a sort of natural "plaster cast" to prevent blood leakage. This natural repair system eventually overshoots and the buildup of artherosclerotic deposits results. These fat deposits in the arteries of the heart can cause heart attacks and strokes.

Vitamin C helps prevent bruising, promotes healing and keeps ligament (which connect muscles to the bones), tendon (which connect bone to bone) and gums strong and healthy. It also helps to produce haemoglobin in red blood cells and help the body to absorb iron from foods.

As an antioxidant, Vitamin C offers protection against cancer and heart disease. Several studies have shown that low levels of this vitamin are linked to heart attacks. In addition, vitamin C may actually lengthen life. In one study, men who consumed more than 300mg of vitamin C lived longer than men who consumed less than 50 mg a day.

Another study found that over the long term, vitamin C supplements protect against cataracts, a clouding of the lens of the eye that interferes with vision. Women who took vitamin C for 10 years or more had 77% lower rate of early lens opacity, than women who didn't take supplements. Numerous studies have found that vitamin C has helped to prevent or improve asthmatic symptoms.

Bio-C is a balance of high-potency vitamin C formulated with four select forms of this important antioxidant nutrient plus bioflavonoids to promote absorption. The different forms of vitamin C helps optimize your body's usage of this nutrient. Ascorbic acid and ascorbic salts, and citrus bioflavonoids together increases Bio-C's biological efficacy in the body. Formulated to assure disintegration and dissolution to meet and exceed all compedial standards, Bio-C does not contain sugar, salt or preservatives.
