 Background
Vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin that is stored in the body in only very small amounts and needs to be consumed daily. Bioflavonoids work synergistically with Vitamin C.
Chemists' Own Bio C tablets contain the mixed bioflavonoids, hesperidin, rutin and rose hip, which naturally enhance the absorption and utilisation of Vitamin C. This formula contains a high potency, low acid form of Vitamin C.
Therapeutic uses
1. Relief of the symptoms of colds, flu and sore throats.
2. Antioxidant effects.
3. Maintenance of peripheral circulation.
Vitamin C is beneficial for the relief of the symptoms of colds, flu, sore throats and mild upper respiratory complaints. Bioflavonoids and Vitamin C are commonly found in nature together and have many similar therapeutic effects. The natural synergism that exists with these nutrients produces a more potent effect than other Vitamin C tablets taken alone.
Vitamin C is well known as a water-soluble anti-oxidant that helps to protect against free radicals. Free radicals are produced naturally in the body and are generated by lifestyle factors such as excess dietary fats, cigarette smoke, alcohol consumption, pollutants and stress. Regular consumption of antioxidants such as Vitamin C help to protect the body against these free radicals.
Vitamin C is required for collagen production, peripheral circulation and to maintain the health of the capillaries. The combination with bioflavonoids further enhances these circulation effects.
