Vitamin C is an essential vitamin, but since it is a water soluble compound, the body eliminates it very quickly. As an antioxidant, it protects against the harmful effects of pollution, protects against infection, and reduces cellular damage incurred by free radicals (unstable oxygen molecules that cause damage to our body's cells). Furthermore, it assists with formation of collagen in connective tissue, protects against blood clotting and bruising, strengthens the immune system under stress, and enhances iron bioavailability. Vitamin C has been traditionally used for cold and flu prevention and is

believed to shorten the duration of an existing cold.

In order for this antioxidant to prove its efficacy, Vitamin C must remain in the bloodstream for a long period of time. Since Ascorbic Acid is a highly acidic ingredient, Vitamin C quantity in the stomach should be

limited.

Vitamin C is used up more rapidly with alcohol use, smoking and under stressful conditions. Other factors that increase the need for Vitamin C include viral illness and fever, certain medications, environmental toxins and exposure to heavy metals such as

lead, mercury or cadmium.

Why Time Release Vitamin C?

More-C™ utilizes a unique-microsphere technology that provides a gradual release of Vitamin C supplying the body with sustained Vitamin C activity for a 24 hour period. More-C™ is formulated with Quali-C™ - a European derived source of Vitamin C. More-C™ is beneficial for individuals who normally have difficulty tolerating Vitamin C in its ascorbic acid form. This is because it is slowly broken down and released into the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, so it is less likely to cause diarrhea or stomach upset. Additionally, since our Vitamin C releases slowly over the entire day, repeated doses each couple of hours are not needed With More-C™. Taking a dose every 12 hours is

fine.

A human clinical trial by an independent research organization concluded that over a 24-hour period, higher plasma levels of Vitamin C are achieved with More-C™ than with other Vitamin C products currently on

the market. Also, More-C™ is absorbed in a more consistent manner than immediate-release formulas, resulting in less excretion of this nutrient and more efficient use by the body.

Other brands of Vitamin C on the market, including premium buffered forms such as calcium ascorbate, function by releasing this nutrient too fast, leading to a spike in Vitamin C levels in the first couple of hours. Unfortunately the body can only use a limited amount of Vitamin C at any given time because we are unable to store it for later use when needed. Therefore, much of the Vitamin C in these immediate-release brands will be excreted via the kidneys and out through the urine resulting in wasted Vitamin C. More-C™ provides a gradual release over a longer period of time so the body is able to use

it more effectively with less urinary loss.
