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’ve been taking this liposomal supplement for a short time, but so far I’m really liking it. I take it as a shot first thing in the morning and wait about 20 minutes before having breakfast, so my body can absorb it properly. I feel it’s starting to work — I’ve noticed less bloating and I feel better overall. I’m looking forward to seeing more results as I continue using it. So far, very happy with this product.
This has been my favorite thing to put on my skin after shaving. It also is the only thing that is currently helping keep my eczema on my arms at bay. It was perfect all summer after swimming and being in the sun. I could go on...love this oil.
