NSI Vitamin C with Rose Hips -- 500 mg - 250 Capsules

NSI Vitamin C with Rose Hips -- 500 mg - 250 Capsules

NSI® Vitamin C with Rose Hips helps strengthen the immune system. Offers powerful antioxidant protection. How Does NSI® Vitamin C with Rose Hips Work? Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is necessary for normal growth and maintenance of the human body. It plays a part in the development and repair of all bodily tissues and is crucial for healing wounds and repairing cartilage, bones and teeth. Vitamin C is also involved in the production of collagen, used to make skin, ligaments, tendons and blood vessels. Vitamin C is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants, helping to protect the body from harmful free radical damage. It is found in some concentration in fruits and vegetables, but citrus fruits, strawberries, cantaloupe, tomatoes, broccoli, potatoes and leafy greens are the best sources. As a water-soluble vitamin, vitamin C is not stored in the body and must be regularly replaced through diet or supplementation, since the body cannot make it on its own. Smoking, stress and certain health concerns may reduce levels. Supplementing with vitamin C is well-known to help strengthen the immune system. Rose Hips contain vitamin C, vitamin K, carotenoids and flavonoids which may help boost the immune system, provide antioxidant protection and enhance cardiovascular health. NSI® Vitamin C with Rose Hips is better because it: . - Delivers 500 mg of vitamin C per one-capsule serving! - Contains 50 mg of rose hips to provide additional health benefits and to facilitate the absorption of vitamin C. . - Provides exceptional quality at extraordinary value.  . Did You Know? All NSI supplements are packaged in HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) bottles. These bottles keep moisture vapor out, protecting the freshness and integrity of their contents, and are 400% more effective compared other brands currently using PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) bottles. HDPE bottles do not break as glass can and are also recyclable so we urge you to please recycle them.
