Discover the Health Benefits of Vitamin C Complete
Vitamin C, also called ascorbic acid, is a water-soluble vitamin and
antioxidant. Like all other essential vitamins, humans cannot synthesize
Vitamin C and must absorb it from foods that are consumed. Vitamin C is
water soluble meaning that humans must ingest it in large quantities.
Vitamin C is found in many fruits and vegetables and is critical to
stimulating and supporting many biological functions. Although Vitamin C
deficiency is not often a problem for those living in Western countries
(like the United States and Canada), many individuals have harnessed
the protective and rejuvenating effects of Vitamin C by supplementing
with MaxLiving Vitamin C Complete. Vitamin C plays a significant role in
the production of collagen, which is the fibrous constitute of the
skin, tendon, bones, cartilage, and all other connective tissue.
Supplementing with Vitamin C supports the body’s ability to repair
tissues, heal wounds, and maintain healthy skin, bones, and nails.
Humans undergo oxidative stress as a result of the build-up of free
radicals in the body. Free radicals are formed as reactive by-products
of ATP production or from toxins in the environment. Oxidative stress is
damaging to all cells and promotes the development of many chronic and
degenerative diseases, such as cancer, arthritis, aging, autoimmune
disorders, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. Vitamin C
supplementation helps the body’s natural ability to reduce free radicals
in the body and naturally detox.
Citrus bioflavonoids and quercetin are plant-derived compounds with
antioxidant properties that function synergistically with Vitamin C to
counteract the oxidation of free radicals and reduce toxicity in the
body. Bioflavonoids increase the bioavailability of Vitamin C. Without
the addition of citrus bioflavonoids and quercetin, as is in MaxLiving
Vitamin C Complete, other Vitamin C supplements may not offer the same
or offer a reduced antioxidant activity level.
Vitamin C has also been found to be antihypertensive and lower serum
LDL cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations; thereby, reducing one’s
risk for heart disease, and vitamin C enhances the bioavailability of
iron.
MaxLiving Vitamin C Complete works with the body’s natural defense
system and metabolism to increase immunity, nourish and repair tissues,
and ward off diseases.

Free radicals are reactive by-products of ATP production, which is
the biological process of metabolism. Humans undergo the process of
oxidation more during bouts of exercise, which causes more free radicals
to accumulate in the body. In addition, humans are also exposed to
toxins in the environment such as pollutants in the air or chemicals in
food, which also contribute to the accumulation of free radicals in the
body. High concentrations of free radicals cause oxidative stress which
is damaging to all cells and promotes the development of many chronic
and degenerative diseases such as cancer, arthritis, aging, autoimmune
disorders, and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases.
Vitamin C is also a powerful, natural antioxidant. Citrus
bioflavonoids and quercetin are plant-derived compounds with antioxidant
properties that function synergistically with Vitamin C to counteract
the oxidation of free radicals and reduce toxicity in the body. Vitamin C
has also been found to be antihypertensive and lower serum LDL
cholesterol and triglyceride concentrations; thereby, reducing one’s

and ward off diseases.
- Free radicals are reactive by-products of ATP production, which is
the biological process of metabolism. When exposed to toxins in the
environment such as pollution, cigarette smoke, radiation, and
medication, the human body may also produce free radicals. High
concentrations of free radicals cause oxidative stress, which is
damaging to all cells and promotes the development of many chronic and
degenerative diseases, such as cancer, arthritis, aging, autoimmune
disorders, and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. In
addition, the body undergoes more oxidative stress during bouts of
exercise.
- Antioxidants are compounds that neutralize free radicals and
minimize damage to cells. However, because the process of destroying
free radicals is the oxidation of the antioxidant, they must constantly
be replenished, which is why it is advantageous to supplement with
Vitamin C. Vitamin C supplements enhance the body’s natural ability to
minimize the damage caused by oxidative stress and boost the immune
system.
- It is recommended that humans intake at least 80 mg of Vitamin C per
day to maintain an optimal pool of the vitamin, which is approximately
five servings of fruits or vegetables. However, supplementation with
Vitamin C is recommended for maximum saturation. In addition, because
highly aerobic tissues undergo greater oxidative stress, they require
greater protection in the form of enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity
which can be gained from supplementing with vitamin C.
- Citrus bioflavonoids and quercetin are plant-derived compounds with
antioxidant properties that function synergistically with Vitamin C to
counteract the oxidation of free radicals and reduce toxicity in the
body. Bioflavonoids increase the bioavailability of Vitamin C by
increasing the absorption into the blood plasma making it more available
to tissues. MaxLiving Vitamin C Complete is a highly active, rich
source of antioxidants.
- Vitamin C plays a significant role in the production of collagen,
which is the fibrous constitute of the skin, tendon, bones, cartilage,
and all other connective tissue. Vitamin C stimulates collagen
production by increasing the steady-state level of mRNA of collagen
types I and III through enhanced transcription and prolonged half-life
of the transcripts. The human epidermis is the initial barrier to
oxidant assault and collagen is the target of photoaging, including
UV-induced cancers (melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell
carcinoma). The epidermis has a higher level of antioxidants than other
areas of the body, and the greater antioxidant activity in the epidermis
protects humans from photoaging, cutaneous aging, and skin
inflammation. Oxidative stress increases with aging because of reduced
antioxidant activity. Supplementation with a Vitamin C complex may
assist in increasing the antioxidant activity in the epidermis for
individuals who wish to reduce the signs of aging in the skin.
- Vitamin C reduces high blood pressure and blood serum level,
therefore may reduce the risk of heart disease for which those are
common precursors. Hypercholesterolemia is a primary risk factor of
coronary heart disease, which is a leading cause of premature death and
disability in the United States. Vitamin C has been found to have an
antihypertensive effect due to its association with a reduction in
vascular sensitivity to noradrenaline and enhancement of
endothelium-dependent relaxation due to increased nitric oxide
bioavailability. In fact, Vitamin C supplementation offers a greater,
significant reduction in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and
triglycerides.
- There is no physiological mechanism for iron excretion; thereby,
absorption alone regulates the stores of iron in the body; iron must be
obtained from foods consumed. Iron metabolism is performed during the
breakdown of red blood cells, and there are two sources of dietary iron:
nonheme iron and heme iron. Heme iron is better absorbed by the body;
however, iron absorption depends on several other factors, including the
availability of Vitamin C.
- Vitamin C increases the bioavailability of iron in foods that are
consumed, not only due to its vital role in the synthesis of red blood
cells, but also because vitamin C enhances the reduction of ferric to
ferrous iron and reduces the negative effect of iron absorption of
inhibitors, such as phytate, polyphenols, and calcium and milk proteins.
Furthermore, iron increases the absorption of native and fortification
iron. A higher bioavailability of dietary iron can be achieved by
increasing the content of food components that enhance iron absorption,
such as Vitamin C. Furthermore, nutritional deficiencies have been
associated with the development of anemia; increasing Vitamin C intake
may help prevent iron deficiency and anemia.
- Immune reconstitution is hindered by a delayed T cell regeneration,
and Vitamin C supplementation has been found to enhance T cell
regeneration by its ability to proliferate and differentiate T cells. T
cells assist other white blood cells in immunologic processes.
