People who are physically active, stressed, living in large agglomerations, elderly people, smoking cigarettes, consuming excessive amounts of alcohol, as well as people taking certain medications, e.g. oral contraceptives, show an increased demand for vitamin C.
Vitamin Cbelongs to the least persistent vitamins. It is not very stable. It decomposes easily under the influence of: temperature, light, metals (copper, iron), food preparation, improper storage conditions. Due to the fact that people do not have the ability to synthesize it, it must be supplied with food. It performs extremely important functions in the system. It supports the body’s immune system, the functioning of the nervous system, maintains proper psychological functions and reduces the feeling of fatigue and weariness. It is involved in the production of collagen, which has a positive effect on the functioning of blood vessels, skin, gums, bones, teeth and cartilage. It also contributes to the maintenance of proper energy metabolism,
Vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) belongs to the group of water-soluble vitamins, which means that it is quickly excreted from the body. However, thanks to modern production methods (Delayed Release Tablet Technology ), the active ingredients of the product are released more slowly, which ensures their gradual absorption into the blood and a constant level in the body.
