VITAMIN C: CAPSULES WITH DELAYED RELEASE IMPOVE THE VITAMIN C USE Vitamin C is the most important water soluble antioxidation factor in the body. Vitamin C considerably enhances the absorption of iron from food and also from supplements. The production of the epinephrine and noradrenaline hormones, which are produced at times of stress, depend on an appropriate Vitamin C status. Vitamin C stimulates the liver's enzyme system, which detoxifies the blood and also accelerates the excretion of certain drugs and toxic environmental chemicals.In the case of people with a low Vitamin C depot a diet low in Vitamin C leads to a state of deficiency in just 1 to 2 weeks. The body absorbs more than 90% of a vitamin C dosage up to 300 mg. In the event of higher dosages the absorption quota falls: In the event of a dosage taken orally of 1500 mg the absorption quota amounts to less than 30%. For this reason the maximum intake is actually achieved more successfully by the distribution of several dosages throughout the day or by means of so-called "retard" or "time release" capsules, which administer the vitamin in a delayed manner. The use quota of Vitamin C time-release preparations vis-à-vis non-time release products is approximately double. APPLICATION OPTIONS Increased resistance to infections: Vitamin C stimulates the production of white blood cells and increases their ability to destroy bacteria and viruses. Because vitamin C is capable of lowering the level of histamines in the blood and the body, it has a positive effect upon asthma, food allergies, hay fever (allergic rhinitis) and other allergies. Smoking: Smoking causes a marked increase in the decomposition and during the excretion of Vitamin C, whereby the body's requirements are more than doubled and the risk of a deficiency increases. Arterial sclerosis: Vitamin C increases the depletion and the excretion of cholesterol and can reduce blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels.Due to these mechanisms Vitamin C can prevent coronary arteriosclerosis and cerebral sclerosis. Protection against cancer: Vitamin C plays a central part in terms of the regulation of oxidation processes, providing protection against carcinogenic additives in foods and heavy metals. In this way Vitamin C reduces the risk of cancer, especially in the case of cancers of the digestive tract. Healing of wounds: Vitamin C can accelerate the healing of wounds and fractures and has a positive effect on burns, traumas and convalescence following operations.
