Doctor’s Best
Do You Know Where Your
Vitamin C Comes From?
●
Vitamin C, a water soluble nutrient, is best
known for its ability to boost immune system
health, but what most people don’t realize is that
virtually all of this crucial nutrient is produced in
China
. For that reason, not nearly enough is
known about its quality.
●
The primary source of nearly all vitamin C is
corn. We have no idea if a GMO (genetically mod-
ified organism) or non-GMO ingredient is being
used in China, as the finished product cannot be
tested for this.
●
Unfortunately, a very large percentage of corn
used to produce vitamin C is genetically modified.
●
There is also significant concern about the envi-
ronmental impact of the production processes being
used in that country.
●
The bottom line is, we know about as much
about the vitamin C made in China as we do about
what’s swimming around in Loch Ness.
The Best Vitamin C Is From Scotland
●
Best Vitamin C featuring Quali
™
-C
provides
a brand of ascorbic acid (also known as ascorbate)
manufactured at the only plant outside of China
that produces high-quality vitamin C.
●
Located on the pristine coast of Scotland, the
facility is strongly committed to minimizing the
environmental impact of its production process.
●
Equally important, the vitamin C produced in
this plant is made from glucose originating from
non-GMO cornfields in Europe.
For Cardiovascular
and Immune System Support
●
High levels of certain proteins in the blood are
indicators of disruptions to cardiovascular and
immune system health. In a study of 3,258 healthy
men, levels of vitamin C in the blood have been
found to be inversely associated with the protein
markers of unbalanced immune activation.
●
Most prospective studies assessing vitamin C
intake in large numbers of people who are fol-
lowed over time indicate that the highest intakes
of vitamin C are associated with enhanced cardio-
vascular benefits.
●
Oxidative stress is a central component of car-
diovascular health, and vitamin C acts vigorously to
counteract the multiple avenues of oxidation that
detract from cardiovascular health.
●
Vitamin C works in conjunction with vitamin E
as a potent antioxidant reducing free radicals in the
body. When vitamin E uses its antioxidant function
in neutralizing free radicals, it also loses this antiox-
idant function. Vitamin C can regenerate vitamin E
back to its native form.
Essential for Collagen Production
●
Not only does vitamin C support cardiovascular
and immune systems and enhance the antioxidant
network, it is also essential for the production of
collagen, the main structural protein found in con-
nective tissue!
