The dietary supplement Life Extension Vitamin C & Bio-Quercetin Phytosome 1000mg 60 veg caps is vitamin C together with a flavonoid antioxidant, dihydroquercetin which acts as an enhancer of vitamin C. The dihydroquercetin prevents the oxidation of vitamin C. Thus, vitamin C maintains its concentration and is recycled in the body. The synergistic relationship between dihydroquercetin and vitamin C enhances the effectiveness of both molecules in organs and tissues.
Provides optimal effectiveness and antioxidant protection.
It favors the absorption of iron, while preventing its oxidation.
Vitamin C is a vital cofactor for collagen formation, which is part of the connective tissue that supports the blood vessels, skin, bones, and teeth. The main action of vitamin C in the immune system is to enhance the glutathione in lymphocytes, which make up 25% of the white blood cells in the blood. Physical exercise, smoking, a weak immune system, extreme temperatures, and the use of certain medications like aspirin, require an increased intake of vitamin C. The human organism does not synthesize vitamin C, so it needs to be obtained through diet or supplements. Vitamin C is water-soluble, oxidizes quickly, and is excreted from the body.
