This is a powerful blend of vitamin C and plant bioflavonoids recognized for helping to support the immune system.* And while you may think immediately of the immune system when you think of vitamin C, this nutrient has many other crucial roles in the body. Among them is facilitating proper construction of collagen, which is one of the body’s most abundant proteins, and is the primary protein in bones, skin, tendons, ligaments, and blood vessels.*
additional highlights:
+quercetin is called “king of the flavonoids” because of its powerful antioxidant properties and its ability to
promote a healthy inflammatory response.* It is found in many foods recognized for their health benefits,
including red onions, apples, olive oil, dark berries and grapes, salad greens and culinary herbs, such as dill,
cilantro, and radicchio (quercetin contributes to the richly colored pigments in these foods). A potent antioxidant, quercetin is also a good helper for the immune response during times of seasonal upper respiratory challenges.*
+hesperidin is another potent but lesser-known bioflavonoid found in oranges and grapefruits, particularly in the white part of the peel, called the pith.
+rutin is an antioxidant found in asparagus, citrus fruits, dark colored berries, plums and prunes
