Isotonix Vitamin C contains 500 mg of vitamin C per serving, which helps to maintain the immune system. In times of illness or distress, it may be helpful to supplement with a greater amount of vitamin C.

Vitamin C has been heralded for quite possibly being the best immune system supporter and antioxidant available today. People who take daily doses of vitamin C can boost their immune system. Vitamin C supports the immune system by protecting the body from free radical damage. As a water-soluble vitamin, ascorbic acid performs its antioxidant functions within the aqueous compartments of the blood and inside cells and can help restore the antioxidant potential of vitamin E (a fat-soluble antioxidant). Support of immune cell function is also a key role performed by vitamin C.

Everyone over 18 should use Isotonix Vitamin C Formula to add vitamin C to their diet because very few of us get the recommended five servings of fruits and vegetables in our daily diets. Those who may especially need supplemental vitamin C include the elderly, those with weakened immune systems, smokers, those under heavy amounts of stress, those with cardiovascular conditions and athletes.

Ascorbic acid is extremely safe even at relatively high levels (because most of the excess is excreted in the urine). At high doses (over 1000 mg/day), some people can experience gastrointestinal side effects such as stomach cramps, nausea and diarrhea. It is recommended that you take vitamin C supplements in gradual servings throughout the day to achieve maximum benefits.
