Why Whole-Food Vitamin C Supplements Are Superior
When you hear "vitamin C" your first instinct might be to think of oranges & berries. But did you know that most supplements are not made from food at all?
Typical vitamin C is made from ascorbic acid, typically derived from GMO corn that has been heavily chemically treated and radiated. Our bodies are intelligent, so they can recognize when the vitamins we're consuming are natural or synthetic. In the case of ascorbic acid, the kidneys have to work extra-hard to get rid of any excess - and that's just one of the ways synthetic vitamins can be harmful. We know chemical exposures and GMO's have been studied and linked to many chronic diseases as well.
So what's the solution? Supplements made from food! Our vitamin C options are made from whole, organic fruits like camu camu berry, acerola cherry, and amla. these non-synthetic options are better absorbed and free of harmful chemicals.
