Quick Overview
The Multi - C complex improves general health, especially useful for repairing wounds, preventing bruising and keeping gums healthy. In addition Vitamin C is also critical to immune function, the manufacture of certain nerve transmitting substances and hormones, and the absorption and use of other nutritional factors.
Vitamin C enhances immune function. During times of chemical, emotional, physical or psychological stress, the urinary system excretes Vitamin C in significant amounts, thereby increasing the body’s need for this vitamin. Vitamin C is the first line antioxidant protection, making it one of our most important antioxidant nutrients.
Flavonoids, or bioflavonoids, are plant pigments that give colour to fruits, vegetables and herbs, and are found in legumes, grains and nuts. Potent antioxidants, they help to prevent cell damage by free radicals.
Bioflavonoids are generally recommended to strengthen fragile blood vessels, such as in varicose veins and broken facial capillaries. Bioflavonoids are valuable for the healing of wounds and bruises, reducing the risk of blood clots, strokes and vascular insufficiency.
Bioflavonoids exhibit a broad range of antioxidant capabilities, which is further augmented by their ability to inhibit the formulation of inflammatory compounds. This makes them a valuable addition in the treatment of inflammatory disorders and allergies.
Bioflavonoids may also help protect against heart disease and other circulatory disorders due to their antioxidant action and vascular strengthening effects.
Quercetin is a powerful anti-oxidant and a natural anti-histimine.
