Puritans Pride Vitamin C 500mg 100 Per Pack

Vitamin C’s important role in immune health does not stop at the surface. During the initial stages of the immune response, white blood cells of the innate immune system start the inflammatory response as one means of dealing with unwelcomed visitors. In a state of inflammation, an abundance of free radicals can be produced. Free radicals are unstable compounds that can interfere with a normal cell’s ability to function optimally. Free radicals cannot differentiate between your own healthy cells and the target of your immune system so they can end up damaging your own cells. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps to fight free radicals. It also helps to regenerate other antioxidants like vitamin E to their active state to maintain antioxidant support.
