Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that functions as a powerful antioxidant. It is water-soluble, which means a continuously replenishing supply is required. Vitamin C supports the production of collagen, the ‘glue’ that strengthens the muscles and blood vessels. Vitamin C also supports the body immune system. Junior C contains 250 mg of Vitamin C in a delicious tasting orange flavored tablet.
Junior C, Advanced Chewable Vitamin C, Natural Orange Flavor, 250 mg, 180 Tablets (Discontinued Item) (Zahler) – Ingredients
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)
- Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) (C6H8O6)
Vitamin C protects the immune system, reduces the severity of allergic reactions and helps to fight off infections. Vitamin C contributes to immune defense by supporting various cellular functions of both the innate and adaptive immune system. Vitamin C supports epithelial barrier function against pathogens and promotes the oxidant scavenging activity of the skin, thereby potentially protecting against environmental oxidative stress. Vitamin C deficiency results in impaired immunity and higher susceptibility to infections. Vitamin C improves immune function, and facilitates enteral uptake of nonheme iron, reduction of folic acid intermediates and synthesis of collagen (wound healing), cortisol, catecholamines and carnitine. Vitamin C depletion may occur scurvy, long-term complications such as increase cardiovascular and neoplasic risks or cataract.
