Most people are aware that vitamin C promotes healthy immune function.* But vitamin C also has several additional mechanisms of action. For example, it's an essential nutrient for promoting wound healing and supporting injury repair.* Vitamin C also plays a role in liver detoxification and helps protect against the toxic effects of heavy metals such as lead, aluminum, and cadmium.* Thorne's Ascorbic Acid contains only crystalline vitamin C – with no added corn starch, magnesium stearate, or other lubricants and diluents – to ensure optimal absorption and efficacy.*
The combined positive effects of vitamin C on collagen synthesis, antioxidant status, and immune function make it an important nutrient for surgery patients and for supporting wound healing.* Vitamin C is necessary for the proper action of those enzymes involved in phase I liver detoxification.* In addition, as an antioxidant, vitamin C helps quench the free-radical intermediates that are created during this first phase of the detoxification of harmful substances in the liver.* Furthermore, vitamin C helps increase the level of the important antioxidant glutathione by increasing glutathione's rate of synthesis, which enhances the liver's phase II detoxification.*

I like this brand of Vitamin C. I started taking it when I got covid. I’d like to think it helped and has continued to help stay healthy and recover when I do get sick.

I felt the support immediately once I began taking the Heart Holder. It's like one big hug that doesn't let go. Instead of feeling burdened, heavy, and depleted from ongoing grief, I feel held, stabilized, even energized. Thank you for creating this beautiful healing medicine needed in a time of so much loss.
I love this fragrance-free Vacha cleanser. It's hydrating and moisturizing but rinses clean without using a cloth to wipe away the excess. Feels great for my postmeno skin using it for my nighttime skincare ritual.
So far so good with this cleanser for polysensitive facial skin. I like that it doesn't have a strong fragrance or essential oils which can irritate my skin. So far , soothing and clear skin.
