VITAMIN C PROMOTES HEALING AND IS NECESSARY FOR PROPER ADRENAL FUNCTION Adrenal glands secrete the hormones needed to fight infection. When under stress, the adrenal gland can consume up to 200 mg of Vitamin C per hour. Vitamin C also plays a role in detoxifying the body and fighting disease. Vitamin C and its metabolites, such as ketoglutaric acid, may act as chelating agents aiding in the removal of lead and other heavy metals from the body. Its antioxidant properties protect cells from damage and disease. Vitamin C also strengthens the lens of the eyes, thereby decreasing the occurrence of cataracts, inflammations, and infections of the eyes. VITAMIN C SUPPLEMENTATION IS IMPORTANT IN ADULTS Researchers from the National Institute on Aging report that elderly people who take vitamin C supplements have a 50 percent lower risk of dying prematurely from disease than do people who do not supplement. Other researchers have found that people who suffer from asthma, arthritis, cancer, diabetes, and heart disease have much lower levels of vitamin C in their blood than do healthy people. Daily supplementation with 500 mg or more of Vitamin C for 10 years has been found to cut the risk of developing bladder cancer by 60 percent. The spread of breast cancer (metastasis) is now believed to be predominantly due to free radical damage which can be controlled through intake of increased amounts of vitamin C. Supplementation with 3 g/day of vitamin C has been found to effectively prevent further polyp growth in colon cancer and a vitamin C intake of more than 157 mg/day has been found to reduce the risk of developing colon cancer by 50 percent. Recommendations As a dietary supplement, one teaspoon per day following a meal or as directed by your health care professional. May be mixed with juice or water.
