Vitamin C plays an important role in normal immune function, and maintaining adequate vitamin C status helps support the body’s natural defenses. Supplementation with vitamin C has been shown in research to support immune health and help maintain normal immune responses.1, 2 Supports Cellular Health. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that scavenges for free radicals, protecting cells from oxidative stress. Pro-C Complex also contains rose hips, acerola, rutin and citrus bioflavonoids that all act as antioxidants, including hesperidin, eriocitrin, naringin and narirutin.1 Supports Skin Health. Vitamin C is essential for healthy skin, as it is needed for collagen synthesis. Collagen production starts to decline as early as age 25, leading to wrinkles and sagging or thinning skin. Vitamin C also supports skin health through its role as an antioxidant, which helps to protect against UV damage.3 Enhances Iron Absorption. Recent research concluded “Vitamin C is the only dietary constituent other than animal tissue that has been shown to promote iron absorption”. 4 References: 1. Carr AC, Maggini S.

It also aids in wound healing, helps with collagen production and assists in the absorption of iron. Vitamin C also supports cellular health and skin health, including boosting collagen synthesis for healthy skin, bones, cartilage, blood vessels, teeth and gums. ProHealth’s Pro-C Complex™ is formulated using a unique buffered form of vitamin C with metabolites to enhance absorption, along with research-supported ingredients and dosing to address various aspects of health and longevity. Calcium ascorbate neutralizes stomach pH to reduce stomach issues common with high vitamin C dosing. Additionally, calcium ascorbate increases absorption by 400% and remains in the body 3-4 times longer. Acerola powder is a natural source of vitamin C and antioxidants that is more absorbable compared to the synthetic form of ascorbic acid.   Rose hips powder is a natural source of vitamin C added to support immune health. It’s also shown to support collagen synthesis and reduce oxidative stress, which is known to contribute to premature aging.  Rutin is a powerful antioxidant that supports the body’s use of vitamin C, protects from free radical damage, offers immune system support and increases the production of collagen. The citrus bioflavonoid complex (hesperidin, eriocitrin, naringin, narirutin) work synergistically with vitamin C to neutralize free radicals and complement the antioxidant potency. In addition they’ve also been shown to support healthy circulation, joint health and cognition.* Supplement Facts Serving Size: 1 Tablet Servings Per Container: 120 Amount Per Serving %DV Vitamin C (as Calcium Ascorbate) 1000 mg 1111% Calcium (from Calcium Ascorbate) 100 mg 8% Citrus Bioflavonoid Complex 200 mg † Acerola Powder (Malphighia glabara) 25 mg † Rose Hips Powder (Rosae pseudofructus) 25 mg † Rutin 25 mg † *Percent daily values based on a 2,000 calorie diet † Daily Value (DV) not established REV. 12.23 OTHER INGREDIENTS: Microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, silicon dioxide, magnesium stearate.
