Produktinformationen
Well equipped for every challenge in any weather with Vitamin C
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is the best-known and one of the most important vitamins the body needs to live. Ascorbic acid performs numerous functions in the body. It is especially important for the immune system and cell protection, as it functions similarly to a rust inhibitor. It protects cells from oxidation and thus neutralises free radicals (reactive oxygen molecules left over from metabolic processes).
Vitamin C is the all-rounder among vitamins
Vitamin C is also involved in various metabolic processes and in collagen formation for cartilage, bones, skin, blood vessels, connective tissue and teeth. Good vitamin C supply is therefore of great importance for maintaining health.
Its effect was discovered rather by chance in 1752 by a ship's doctor. He noticed that fresh fruit, such as lemons and oranges, helped against the then-common seafarer's disease scurvy. Sailors often suffered from tooth decay, joint inflammation and muscle wasting. Fresh food was rarely available at sea. In 1933 Walter Norman Haworth then elucidated the chemical structure of vitamin C, for which he received a Nobel Prize.

Why choose Unimedica Vitamin C capsules?
As the body cannot store vitamin C in sufficient amounts, it must be taken regularly through the diet. Long transport distances and storage times reduce the vitamin C content of fruit and vegetables.
Citrus fruits in particular travel a long way to reach us. To prevent them from spoiling, they are often harvested before full ripeness. They therefore cannot develop their full range of nutrients. They are then ripened and stored — in some cases for several years — in controlled gas atmospheres.
It is therefore better to rely on fresh, local sources of vitamin C or on supplements such as Unimedica Vitamin C capsules.
Each jar of Unimedica Vitamin C capsules contains 180 capsules. That corresponds to a 3-month supply.
