Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
Calcium Ascorbate
Calcium Ascorbate is a combination of Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and Calcium, offering several advantages:
Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid)
Immune Function: Enhances the production and function of white blood cells, helping the body defend against viruses and bacteria.
Collagen Synthesis: Vital for the production of collagen, a protein that supports skin, blood vessels, ligaments, tendons, and joints.
Antioxidant Protection: Neutralises free radicals and helps regenerate other antioxidants like Vitamin E, protecting cells from oxidative damage.
Iron Absorption: Improves absorption of non-heme iron (from plant sources), making it particularly useful for vegetarians and those with low iron.
Skin Health: Helps maintain skin elasticity, prevent wrinkles, and reduce oxidative damage linked to ageing and sun exposure.
Wound Healing: Aids in tissue repair and speeds up recovery from cuts or abrasions.
Calcium (from Calcium Ascorbate + TriCalcium Phosphate)
Bone Health: Essential for the maintenance of strong bones and teeth.
Nervous System: Supports nerve transmission and muscle function, including the heart.
Gentle on Stomach: Because calcium ascorbate is pH-neutral, it does not cause the gastric discomfort often associated with acidic vitamin C forms.
