Adelle Davis Liposomal vitamin C 200 ml - 12 mes.

Vitamin C is a substance that our body cannot function normally without (in cases of extreme deficiency, it would even lead to death), but it cannot produce it on its own. Therefore, it must be obtained from external sources. Sources of vitamin C include food and dietary supplements. The disease caused by a lack of vitamin C is called scurvy and its symptoms include bleeding gums, tooth loss, and softening of the bones. If vitamin C is not administered, the body will die. This disease once primarily affected sailors. Legend has it that Columbus's sailors were cured of this illness by citrus fruits they found when they discovered America. So, when we look at the symptoms of scurvy, it tells us what vitamin C is essential for.
The effects of vitamin C include supporting the body's defence mechanisms, aiding wound healing, and contributing to the formation of bones, teeth, and cartilage. A deficiency can also trigger excessive cravings for sugary foods. As an antioxidant, it fights free radicals, which are produced during excessive stress or exposure to pollutants and toxic substances, and it assists in various chemical processes in the body.

Research into the effects of vitamin C

Research into the effects of vitamin C is ongoing; during the coronavirus pandemic, for instance, it was used in New York to treat infected patients. This vitamin is even administered by injection. All this indicates, and it seems to be the case, that vitamin C is truly necessary and irreplaceable. The biggest drawback of common forms of vitamin C, such as tablets, powders, or drinks, is that most of the vitamin C is broken down in the digestive system, and only a fraction of the amount stated on the supplement's packaging reaches its intended destination in our body. Moreover, unlike common forms, liposomal vitamin C has up to 6× higher absorbability. For comparison, the following basic forms exist: capsules, tablets, powder form – absorbability up to 20%; vitamin C administered intravenously – absorbability approximately 70%; Liposomal form – absorbability over 90%. In very simple terms, the vitamin C itself is enclosed in tiny bubbles (called liposomes, hence the name 'liposomal', which are made from the natural substance lecithin using a special process). These mini-bubbles protect the vitamin C and also 'get along' with the intestinal walls, allowing them to easily pass through into the bloodstream, which then carries them to the cells themselves. They also get along with the cells, so the cell can very easily accept the 'delivery', and that is why more than 90% of the vitamin C gets to where it is needed and is utilised. Furthermore, this form is gentle on the stomach.
