Vitamin C is an essential nutrient well known for its vital role in immune system function. It is a highly effective antioxidant that can protect the body’s structures from oxidative damage generated during normal metabolism. Vitamin C is also necessary for the production of collagen and is therefore important for skin, bone, and joint health. It is also needed for amino acid metabolism and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron. Sodium Ascorbate is a non-bitter, non-acidic, buffered form of Vitamin C in a highly soluble form.

Regular supplementation have shown that vitamin C reduces the duration of colds. Extra doses of vitamin C could benefit some patients who contract the common cold despite taking daily vitamin C supplements. 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.
