The “Vitamin C” we’ve learned to love is not actually vitamin C. It is a synthetic form called ascorbic acid!
Ascorbic Acid is: ❌ Made in a lab ❌ Derived from Genetically Modified Corn 🔬🧪🫠 ❌ Missing its cofactors and not recognized by the body
When we frequently take ascorbic acid we not only MISS THE MARK when it comes to Vitamin C, we run the risk of creating other deficiencies and off balancing our microbiome and flavonoids. Isolated Ascorbic Acid (Most Supplements): This is a lab-made, single chemical compound. It acts as an antioxidant "wrapper," but it is missing the co-factors, enzymes, and bioflavonoids found in nature. It is missing very important synergistic cofactors that allow our bodies to properly utilize and reap the benefits of this powerhouse Whole Food Vitamin C (Nature): Natural vitamin C is a complex working system containing bioflavonoids, rutin, tyrosinase, and trace minerals. These companions help the body absorb and utilize the vitamin more effectively.
