Vitamin C is a crucial component of the immune system, and it cuts down the time it takes the body to fight infection. Vitamin C activates and converts other nutrients, like B vitamins and folic acid, into fuel for the metabolism. You can’t go wrong with vitamin C, so pick this box if you’re fighting an acute illness such as the common flu or a chronic condition such as cancer.
Your body cannot synthesize vitamin C on its own, so it must come from another source like food or supplements. Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant alone, but it also directly affects C-reactive protein found in cells which is the cause of excessive inflammation. High doses of vitamin C are effective at reducing inflammation caused by a virus or even cancer. In fact, the National Library of Medicine states that, “mega doses of vitamin C have been widely used in the treatment and prevention of a large number of disorders like diabetes, atherosclerosis, common cold, cataracts, glaucoma, macular degeneration, stroke, heart diseases, cancer and so on”.
Box contains: vitamin C (10,000mg), zinc, glutathione, B-complex, magnesium, & B-12 shot.
