Humans are one of the few species that cannot manufacture its own vitamin C. Although most fresh fruits and vegetables are a good source, vitamin C is one of the least stable vitamins and can therefore be destroyed by exposure to heat, such as through cooking. In addition, vitamin C cannot be stored by the body since it’s a water-soluble vitamin. This makes daily repletion necessary to avoid development of deficiency symptoms.
PLV Vitamin C provides 1000 milligrams of clean and pure ascorbic acid in each vegetable capsule. In this form it can be used as a vitamin C flush protocol to promote detoxification, or as an oral adjunct to IV-vitamin C treatments (when recommended by your ND). It is sourced from tapioca and is free of sodium and calcium. Like all PLV products, PLV Vitamin C is gluten-free.
