Vitamin C + Bioflavonoids Re-Natured® (Citrus Fruit Concentrate- PH neutral Orange)Vitamin C,
is a water-soluble vitamin, it dissolves in water and cannot be stored
by the body. Excess amounts are eliminated in urine so must be replaced
every day in our diet to provide a continuous supply.
Vitamin C plays an essential role in the following processes in the body:
- growth and repair of tissues in all parts of your body.
- It helps the body to make collagen, an important protein used to make skin, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels.
- It is needed for healing wounds, and for repairing and maintaining our bones and teeth.
- vitamin
c is also recognized as a valuable antioxidant. - antioxidants help to
block some of the damage caused by harmful free radicals, substances
that damage DNA. The build-up of harmful free radicals over time may
contribute to the aging process and also to the development of serious
health conditions such as, heart disease, and arthritis.
A large percentage of vitamin C tablets
and products on the market today are synthetically made ascorbic acid,
or variations such as calcium ascorbate, magnesium ascorbate or
potassium ascorbate.
These
laboratory produced powders like ascorbic acid are not natural complex
vitamin C. They are chemically synthesized isolates that have been
manufactured industrially. These synthetic molecules mimic only one
component of the multitude of life-supporting nutrient complexes that
are actually found in real natural vitamin C complex.
Although
synthetic or man-made vitamin C or "ascorbic acid" is manufactured to
resemble Vitamin C in its chemical structure, it is missing all of the
essential and natural co-factors. Grown By Nature specialize in natural
nutritional supplements.

Suitable for Vegans/Vegetarians*1.74 times more absorbed into red blood cells*3.2 to 15.6 times the antioxidant effect*As compared to USP Ascorbic AcidThese studies may not conform to peer reviewed standards, therefore the results are not conclusive.Vitamin
C is an essential vitamin for human beings and guinea pigs as these
organisms cannot synthesize the vitamin on their own.1 Other animals are
able to synthesize this vitamin on their own. In a study conducted by
J.A. Vinson in 1991, he found that the Re-Natured® Vitamin C was 1210% more bio-available than the chemical isolate ascorbic acid.
Ascorbic
Acid is not Vitamin C. It is an important part of Vitamin C, but alone
as a chemical isolate, it does not perform the same activity as when it
is in embedded in it's natural food complex. Grown By Nature uses
Re-Natured
® nutrients. Our Vitamin C is a food complex from citrus fruit pulp (bioflavonoids).
