Vitamin C is involved in numerous biological processes that take place in the human body. Its powerful antioxidant function helps maintain cellular health, supporting the daily activities of the immune system.
Vitamin C intake is one of the pillars of immune care, collagen synthesis necessary for healthy skin, hair, nails, bones, teeth, muscles, blood vessels and supporting every cell in the body against the damaging effects of free radicals. Vitamin C is one of the exogenous substances, i.e. those we need to supply to the body from our diet, as it is not able to produce them on its own.
Vitamin C is involved in many important processes in the body. It helps to maintain a well-functioning immune system and protects cells against oxidative stress. Thanks to its powerful antioxidant properties, it protects cells, including the cells of the immune system, against reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus supporting immune functions. Vitamin C also contributes to the proper production of collagen to ensure the proper functioning of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, skin and teeth.
The presence of this vitamin is also essential for proper energy metabolism. Vitamin C helps the nervous system to function properly, maintain proper psychological function and helps reduce fatigue. Acting as a cofactor, it increases iron absorption, which is particularly important for people using a plant-based diet, as non-heme iron from plant sources is characterised by lower absorption efficiency compared to iron of animal origin.
Difference between Liposomal Vitamin C and Normal Vitamin C
Liposomal vitamin C is a form of vitamin C that is encased in a lipid (fat) layer. This lipid layer helps protect vitamin C from degradation by stomach acid and allows it to be absorbed more efficiently into the bloodstream. Normal vitamin C, on the other hand, is just the ascorbic acid form of vitamin C, without the added lipid layer. This can make it less effective, as some of the vitamin C can be lost in the digestive process. In addition, normal vitamin C can cause digestive discomfort in some people, while liposomal vitamin C is usually better tolerated. The liposomal microsphere, together with the nutrients it carries inside it, reaches the bloodstream intact and is then absorbed directly into the cell.
Absorption of liposomal supplements is 20 times higher than for classic supplements. The patented technology allows a unique, natural form of liposomes to be obtained without the use of high temperatures and pressures, without solvents or the addition of alcohol, flavourings or other inactive ingredients.
Predisposition to vitamin C deficiency:
Vitamin C is a vitamin that cannot be produced by our bodies, and daily intake is essential for maintaining whole-body health.
Daily supplementation is recommended for all people, but especially for those with a sedentary lifestyle, who spend a lot of time at a desk, or staring at displays of any kind, the elderly, pregnant or breastfeeding women, children in all stages of growth, anyone who feels stressed, irritable, or overworked.
Special cases requiring increased Vitamin C intake: tumour diseases, people undergoing radiotherapy or chemotherapy, people suffering from alcoholism, anorexia, active or passive smokers (constant exposure to cigarette smoke), liver and digestive diseases, liver transplant, complications in interleukin-2 treatment for renal metastasis, recurrent viral diseases, food allergies, frequent consumption of drugs such as aspirin, indomethacin, oral contraceptives.
Vitamin C Liposomal Benefits:
- Collagen biosynthesis necessary for healthy blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums and teeth;
- formation of collagen necessary for the beauty and health of the skin;
- support the body's healing processes;
- increased absorption of iron and calcium in the gut;
- normal growth and development of children;
- maintaining normal immune system functionality during and after strenuous physical activity;
- protein metabolism;
- normal functioning of the nervous system;
- protecting cells from oxidative stress;
- increasing the resistance of blood capillaries;
- prevention of cardiovascular disease;
- maintenance of normal psychological functions;
- lowering bad cholesterol (LDL) and preventing oxidation of good cholesterol (HDL);
- reducing fatigue or psychophysical exhaustion;
- reducing allergic conditions in cases of asthma or hives;
- good functioning of liver cells;
- reducing the risk of cancer proliferation in the body;
- reducing the side effects of chemo and radiotherapy;
- elimination of cancer cell residues after apoptosis induced by the action of Salvestrols.
Symptoms of vitamin C deficiency:
Dry hair and split ends, bright red color of hair follicles, spoon-shaped nails with reddish spots or lines, nosebleeds, gums that bleed and swell (gingivitis), easy formation of hematomas (bruises) - at the slightest bump, decayed teeth, unexplained weight gain (slow metabolism), irritated (red, dry) or flaking skin (dermatitis), wounds that heal slowly, anaemia (persistent iron deficiency), permanent weakness or fatigue, premature wrinkles, painful and inflamed joints, brittle bones, weakened muscles, frequent infections, chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, weakened immunity, exacerbated emotional stress.
Administration
We suggest taking one capsule once, twice a day. Best taken after a meal.
WARNINGS AND STORAGE
The recommended daily dose should not be exceeded. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced diet. A varied diet and a healthy lifestyle should be followed to help maintain normal health. Store in a dark, dry place at room temperature away from small children.
