Alkalize-C is an excellent addition to any healing strategy, especially in cases of adrenal insufficiency, compromised immunity, or heavy metal detoxification. The buffered hypo-allergenic, alkalizing, neutral pH is a “non-bowel tolerance” buffered Vitamin C and trace mineral powder.
Vitamin C is an essential vitamin that can only be obtained through diet. It is a powerful antioxidant, required for at least 300 metabolic functions in the body.
Vitamin C plays a critical role in tissue growth and repair. It supports connective tissue by building collagen and is required to produce folic acid, phenylalanine, and tyrosine. It enhances the absorption rate of iron in the body and supports the adrenal glands through the formation of anti-stress hormones.
Stress, at all levels, dramatically increases the need for Vitamin C. Smoking significantly decreases Vitamin C levels, as does the use of estrogen supplementation from birth control pills or hormone replacement in menopause, cortisone, and aspirin.
Although Vitamin C is one of the most commonly supplemented nutrients, many basic formulas cannot be assimilated, and high doses of these formulas needed for therapeutic benefit can lead to some uncomfortable side effects, like loose stools and subsequent loss of essential trace minerals.
Alkalize-C is a non “bowel tolerance” Vitamin C alkalizing mineral drink. As a powerful immune enhancer, it aids in reducing oxidative stress and supports healthy adrenal function.*
A combination of high-quality ascorbic acid and supportive essential trace minerals, Alkalize-C protects against trace mineral loss, which sometimes accompanies high ascorbate therapy. These carefully selected trace minerals support the production of energy, reduction of oxidative stress, and cellular repair and can support immune function.
