DR. MERCOLA LIPOSOMAL VITAMIN C
If there’s one key staple that belongs in everyone’s home supply kit, it’s vitamin C. Useful year round, this vitamin stands in a league of its own and is the perfect immune system support vitamin.
Vitamin C is often overlooked or passed over for newer, trendier supplements. And that’s too bad… This superstar vitamin continues to prove its worth and the research touting its potential benefits only grows each year.
What makes vitamin C so valuable? Considered the “grandfather” of antioxidants, vitamin C plays a dual role in your body. First, it functions as a powerful antioxidant. Second, it acts as an essential nutrient. Together, these two roles fuel many functions:
- Supports collagen synthesis, an important structural component of your bones, blood vessels, tendons, ligaments and skin
- Supports heart and vascular health
- Supports healthy blood pressure levels already within the normal range
- Supports immune system function
- Acts as an essential cofactor in enzymatic reactions
- Helps protect against damaging free radicals
- Supports your healthy metabolism
- Helps maintain healthy bones and teeth
- Aids in healthy eye support
- Supports healthy hormone production
- Helps promote healthy uric acid metabolism
- Helps your body absorb iron
- Supports brain health by aiding the production of neurotransmitters
- Boosts the actions of other antioxidants
NATURE'S SUNSHINE ZINC
The trace mineral zinc is involved in hundreds of important functions in the body, including sugar metabolism, DNA formation, protein metabolism and energy production. It is also needed for the growth and development of bones. Pregnant and lactating women require extra zinc. More zinc is found in the body than any other trace element except for iron. Relatively large amounts are found in bone and muscle. It’s also prevalent in the prostate and retina.
NATURE'S SUNSHINE VITAMIN D3
Vitamin D comes in two forms: D2 and D3. Of the two, D3 is more bioactive. The body synthesizes vitamin D3 from cholesterol and sunlight; which makes it difficult to obtain adequate amounts of vitamin D during cloudy or winter months. In the body, vitamin D is responsible for maintaining normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus, and helping to build strong bones. It works with other vitamins, minerals and hormones to promote bone mineralization. Research shows that vitamin D may help support a healthy immune system by regulating lymphocyte function, cytokine production and macrophage activity. Studies also show that Vitamin D may improve mood.
