Buffered C - Powder
Buffered C Plus contains a non-acidic, calcium ascorbate form of Vitamin C and citrus bioflavonoid.
About the Ingredients
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) has numerous biological functions. Vitamin C helps towards
collagen formation for many body tissues including skin, gums, teeth and cartilage
found in joints. It enhances the absorption of iron in the body, is involved in energy
metabolism, and contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Vitamin C is the
required coenzyme for two groups of enzymes that catalyze the crosslinking of collagen
fibers - lysyl hydroxylases and prolyl hydroxylases. Vitamin C is essential for normal
wound healing and capillary health. It also participates in the biosynthesis of carnitine,
serotonin, and certain other neurotransmitters, including norepinephrine. Vitamin C is a
water-soluble, chain-breaking antioxidant that reacts directly with superoxide, hydroxyl
radicals, and singlet oxygen. Vitamin C interacts with glutathione and alpha-lipoic acid,
and regenerates Vitamin E.
Bioflavonoids (also called flavonoids) are a class of phytochemicals that are potent
antioxidants, which scavenge many potentially damaging free radicals. Another aspect
of the antioxidant properties of bioflavonoids is their synergy with Vitamin C. The
bitter tasting flavanones hesperidin and naringin, from the white albedo layer of
citrus peels, have been shown to extend the nutritional functions of Vitamin C.
Bioflavonoids are also capable of binding to metal ions, which prevents these metals
from acting as catalysts in the body to enhance free radical production.
Powdered Buffered C Plus
A well designed effervescent powder can allow a large dose of ingredients to be
taken in a single serving. The organic food acid combines with the carbonate
source to form potassium, sodium, calcium or magnesium salts of the acid, and
buffers the solution to a normal pH, so it is easy on the stomach. Clinical
studies performed on a variety of effervescent products demonstrate that the
ingredients penetrate the blood stream within as little as 15 minutes.
Why Effervescent?
· Bioavailable, easily absorbed into the blood stream
· Can tolerate higher doses in an effervescent powder
Minerals (Powdered Buffered C Plus)
Minerals are essential for many aspects of overall health and well-being such as
proper composition of body fluids, formation of bone and blood, maintenance of
healthy nerve function, regulation of muscle tone (including the muscles of the
cardiovascular system), activation of many enzymes and more.
B Vitamins (Powdered Buffered C Plus)
This unique, high quality formula contains the most biologically active forms of
many B-vitamins including: Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12.
B-vitamins play many important roles in the body. For example, vitamin B12 is crucial
for proper cell division; vitamins B1, B2, and B3 are essential for energy production.
Amino acid metabolism requires vitamin B6. Vitamin B5 is necessary for the synthesis of
acetylcholine (a neurotransmitter) and is also involved with energy production. Some B
vitamins have been shown to play a role in wound healing and vitiligo.
