Product Notes:
The water-soluble nutrient Vitamin C has many vital roles in the body. It's needed to produce collagen (an important component of connective tissue, skin, bones, gums and joints) and to help metabolize amino acids and use other important nutrients such as folic acid and iron, and it helps the immune system, helps heal wounds, and even helps regenerate other antioxidants besides itself, such as Vitamin E.
Most Vitamin C supplements only provide Ascorbic Acid. However, many nutritionists argue that that does not truly qualify as Vitamin C, since it is missing other factors that are found in whole food versions, such as the Bioflavonoids found in citrus fruits or Rutin (a pigment found in certain plants), which have synergistic effect to enhance its antioxidant properties. Accordingly Protocol has also included these in this formula.
This product was previously marketed as 'Protocol C-1000.'
