Description
Garden of Life Vitamin Code Raw Vitamin C - 120 Vegan Capsules
Comprehensive Vitamin C Sourced from Whole Food Ingredients
Also known as ascorbic acid, Vitamin C plays an important role in the growth, development, as well as repair of body tissues. It is used up by the body when it comes to performing different physiological functions. It is important in the formation of collagen, wound healing, maintenance of strong bones and teeth, improvement of the immune system, and absorption of iron. The body does not produce its own Vitamin C thus it gets this nutrient from food sources. Sources of Vitamin C include citrus fruits and green leafy vegetables. However, one must need to eat a lot in order to supply the body’s daily needs for Vitamin C. This is the reason why supplementing with Garden of Life’s Vitamin Code Raw Vitamin C is crucial.

Raw Is Power
Perhaps the biggest benefit of this supplement is that all active ingredients are sourced from raw organic materials. Whole food ingredients contain high amounts of enzymes, amino acids, phytonutrients, and fatty acids that are in their unadulterated form because they were not subjected to heat. Because it is raw, it is bursting with chlorophyll, trace elements, probiotics and prebiotics to help support efficient bioabsorption of nutrients. Each serving of the supplement contains 17 nutrient-dense vegetables and fruits that are freeze-dried and kept inside capsules. And since everything is raw, the density of the nutrients is jam-packed in one tiny capsule thus one gets more from this supplement.
Beneficial For Everyone
Vitamin C is essential for everyone but since this supplement contains a potent amount of such Vitamin, it is great for people who are exposed to a lot of environmental pollutants as well as stress. People who are constantly on a go without getting enough sleep or rest, as well as smokers, can benefit from this supplement. It can also be great for children and healthy adults to provide a steady supply of Vitamin C to avoid deficiency. Deficiency of Vitamin C can lead to scurvy, excessive bleeding, and abnormalities on the connective tissues. And since this supplement is sourced from plant-based ingredients, it is good for those who are following the vegan or vegetarian diet.
May Benefit Immune System and All
While this particular vitamin is known to boost the immune system, it can also do many things to the body. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that can help protect the cells against the damage caused by Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) or free radicals. This is essential in building as well as strengthening the immune system. Vitamin C is also essential in the formation of collagen, cartilage, and bones. Without it, the integrity of such structures is affected. It is also used by the adrenal glands to regulate both emotional and physical responses. Lastly, it is needed to convert folic acid into its active and usable form. Folic acid is essential for the brain development of babies. Thus, Vitamin C is essential for pregnant women.
