Bioflavonoids

Bioflavonoids are those natural pigments that give the color of fruits and vegetables. A flavonoid can be regarded as a bioflavonoid if it has got a p-factor effect: it fills the veins and capillaries, it prevents the degradation of collagen thus strengthening the blood vessel wall. The effect of medicines to prevent blood vessels are also based on this function.

Vitamin C combined with bioflavonoids possesses significant blood vessel protective and strong antioxidant effects, thus it can be used efficiently to preserve the youth of skin and to prevent diseases related to tumors.

Additionally, it helps vitamins and nutrients to be used and thus proteins can be also used in a better way.

L- ascorbic acid or as also known Vitamin C

Among ascorbic acids, L-ascorbic acid can be found in nature.  Only this form is enable to nourish the human body that is known as Vitamin C. Contrary to, D-ascorbic acid is harmless and useless for our body. For this reason, we only add L-ascorbic acid to our food supplements.

Vitamin C is water soluble and is not stored in human body. That is why, in order to have the adequate Vitamin C level, people need to supply it every day.

Daily hardships, physical work, and sport place a great strain on the body that responds with stress. Due to the effect of stress, the balance of free radicals and antioxidants is disturbed and if it persists, it can lead to diseases and the acceleration of ageing. Therefore, Vitamin C supplement is greatly important for the proper functioning of immune system.

How can it help?

It can strengthen the resilience against stress.  No matter if our human body is exposed to either physical or psychological strain, Vitamin C intake can make it easier to endure.

It can accelerate the recovery of micro damages in muscles.

It can reduce the feeling of tiredness that is possible because of its role in the functioning of thyroid.

It makes toxic elements in body harmless that accumulate in the form of the so-called free radicals. These are so fierce molecules that can damage the cells of the body. Antioxidants like Vitamin C take these chemical compounds and help them to remove from the body.

It can help to develop collagen, L-carnitine and some neurotransmitters. Collagen can contribute to the growth of muscles, L-carnitine can reduce the level of body fat, some neurotransmitters can support the central nervous system and can improve sleep quality.

Vitamin C can be more useful if we intake it together with bioflavonoids. It is a good news that Vitamin C coming from natural resources contain bioflavonoids.
