Vitamin C is an essential, water soluble vitamin that we need daily. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that fights free radicals and plays an important role in immune function, by helping white blood cells function more effectively. Our Scorbi-Cee is pure ascorbic acid (100% vitamin C) in fine granular powder form.

Benefits may include:
-Prevents onset of colds and viruses, and shortens the length and severity of illness
-A natural antioxidant and anti-inflammatory that can regulate the immune and nervous systems
-Assists with collagen formation and bone, cartilage, gum, skin, teeth, and blood vessels health
-Reduces fatigue, and contributes towards psychological health
-Helps in wound healing, and assists in connective tissue formation

Vitamin C is essential for the formation of collagen and is involved in protein metabolism. It is a vital component of connective tissue and also promotes wound healing. Vitamin C presents anti-oxidative properties and can scavenge free radicals and reduce oxidative stress – this contributes to the prevention of certain cancers and cardiovascular disease as well as helps slow down the aging process.

Our Sally-Ann Creed® Scorbi Cee is 100% ascorbic acid. It’s a fine, granular powder that can easily be dissolved in water. One of the best ways to incorporate it into your daily regime is by adding the recommended daily dose to a bottle of water. You can sip on this throughout the day, conveniently getting your daily dose of vitamin C.

Some further health conditions that may benefit from vitamin C supplementation are those suffering from high blood pressure, joint pain, and high cholesterol. Vitamin C is also becoming increasingly popular in skin products, to assist with dryness, acne, or ageing.
