Life Extension Vitamin C and Bio-Quercetin Phytosome 250 Tablets

Vitamin C and ultra-absorbable quercetin in Vitamin C and Bio-Quercetin Phytosome deliver a shot of vitamin C to the body that it cannot provide on its own. These compounds can protect your body from oxidative stress, promote collagen formation, promote healthy immune function and iron absorption. The biological activity of vitamin C is complemented by an easily absorbed form of quercetin. Vitamin C and bioflavonoids like quercetin are often found together in healthy foods.

Why it works:
The health benefits of vitamin C are well known to nutritional researchers, but it is an essential nutrient that humans cannot produce in the body. This means we must get all of our vitamin C from our diet and supplements. The unique formulation of Vitamin C and Bio-Quercetin Phytosome combines high-quality vitamin C with the antioxidant quercetin, which complements the activity of vitamin C to support whole-body health. In this formula, quercetin has been combined with a phospholipid-based delivery system called phytosome, making it up to 50 times more absorbable and easier for the body to use compared to conventional quercetin.

The science behind the product:
Research has been done on vitamin C and it has shown that vitamin C can be a powerful antioxidant. It can scavenge free radicals and protect against oxidative stress. Vitamin C can also stimulate iron absorption. In addition, it may also be involved in the formation of collagen, which supports artery walls, skin, bones, and teeth. Vitamin C also plays a role in protecting against environmental and physical stresses such as heavy metal ingestion, cigarette smoking, compromised immunity, and extreme temperatures.

There is scientific evidence that specialized compounds in fruits and vegetables provide critical protection against free radical attack. Quercetin is a bioflavonoid found in grape skins, onions, apples, buckwheat, and other food sources.

Quercetin has a long history of use to help alleviate the effects of seasonal immune problems. It has been shown in clinical studies to promote a healthy immune response in physically healthy adults. Quercetin inhibits oxidative stress and inflammation. Quercetin also promotes both cardiovascular and endothelial health and helps maintain healthy blood pressure already within the normal range.
