General Product Information:
Formulated with eight forms of buffered vitamin C, Vitamin V8 contains additional cutting edge nutraceuticals dedicated to excellent health. It is also less acidic for enhanced gastrointestinal tolerance.
For your body to truly get all the benefits of vitamin C, it needs to get it from more than one source. Vitamin C8 combines calcium, magnesium, potassium, zinc, manganese, selenium, and sodium mineral ascorbates with ascorbyl palmitate to provide a full spectrum of antioxidant benefits. Vitamin C8 helps immune function and is an excellent source of electrolytes which can replenish those lost through perspiration. It also delivers the antioxidant action of three cups worth of green tea per capsule.
Vitamin C8 is formulated with minerals bonded with vitamin C, a superior form called ascorbates.
Calcium ascorbate is a natural form of vitamin C which is more readily absorbed in the bloodstream than other forms of calcium. Importantly, calcium is coupled with vitamin C to deliver the benefits of both calcium and vitamin C.
Magnesium ascorbate is a buffered form of this critical mineral. It is essential to build the bones and teeth, and has numerous metabolic functions. Magnesium ascorbate is a neutral salt having good gastrointestinal tolerance.
Potassium ascorbate - potassium is an essential dietary mineral and electrolyte. Electrolytes are substances that disassociate into ions (charged particles) in a solution, making them capable of conducting electricity. Our bodies depend upon the tight regulation of potassium concentrations, both within and surrounding the cells.
Manganese ascorbate - manganese is important in the breakdown of amino acids and the production of energy. It activates enzymes critical for digestion and nourishes skeletal development.
Selenium (from L-selenomethionine) protects cells from free radicals.
Zinc ascorbate is buffered (non acidic) and will not contribute to gastric irritation in acid sensitive persons. Calcium/magnesium, potassium, and manganese all play an important role, since a constant blood value of these minerals is required for a normal rhythmic heartbeat, healthy nerve transmission, and strong muscle contractions. Once a muscle contracts, calcium leaves and only then magnesium replaces it. The muscle can then return to a relaxed state.
Ascorbyl palmitate is a fat soluble antioxidant, allowing it to be incorporated into cell membranes. When taking ascorbyl palmitate orally, it becomes hydrolyzed and breaks apart into palmitate and ascorbic acid in the human digestive tract before it is absorbed. The presence of ascorbyl palmitate in Vitamin C8 contributes to the ascorbic acid content and helps protect lipid soluble antioxidants during storage.
Vitamin C8 also contains green tea, bilberry, grape seed, cranberry, citrus bioflavonoids, quercetin, rutin, black pepper, and proteolytic enzymes.
