WHOLEFOOD vitamin C supports your immune health. But it has another quality often overlooked by dermatologists and the skin-care industry. Vitamin C could very well be one of the most underappreciated beauty enhancers in the world. Not only does it protect your skin from free radical damage to help keep your face smooth and even-toned, it also helps your body create something that is the telltale marker of youth – collagen. Topical collagen is too big to be absorbed through the pores in your skin. It’s much more effective to supplement vitamin C. And if you can get enough, you’ll start to notice a difference in the elasticity and overall feel of your skin. Vitamin C will help keep your body producing healthy, normal amounts of collagen for fresh, glowing skin, hair and nails. But don’t buy cheap synthetic “vitamin C” pills which are derived from GMO corn. Nearly all the "vitamin C" sold across America right now is derived from GMO corn. It's typically called "ascorbic acid," and nearly 100% of the ascorbic acid used in the natural products industry is derived from GMOs.

Real vitamins are the living ones derived from whole foods and that are maintained in their natural states. These contain the necessary cofactors and enzymes which help the body to process and use them, and they provide the most benefit to the body. The vitamin C found in Wildcrafted Camu Camu Berries, Wildcrafted Rose Hips and Organic Acerola Berries does not exist as ascorbic acid, but as a complex that includes bioflavonoids and calcium. You will notice that now most vitamin C supplements contain added bioflavonoids and calcium because over time supplement manufacturers have learned that the body doesn't utilize pure ascorbic acid without the rest of the vitamin C complex present. But nature had it right from the very beginning. If you want vitamin C, go with Madre Labs, Madre-C, Vitamin C which is whole-food concentrates. You'll get plenty of vitamin C in a full-spectrum package that gives you antioxidants, phytonutrients, and cancer fighting compounds all at the same time.

Like that the Vitamin C comes from real food and is not isolated synthetic ascorbic acid I searched for a real, natural Vitamin C. This is it. Wholesome tasting and feels good. I buy it repeatedly being a whole food and happy using a whole food supplement.I'm using it with a combination of other whole food supplements and experiencing improved health. Use this product in conjunction with the madre labs immune punch bought at http://goo.gl/7byp6 and so far in the few months ive used it, I have not been sick. A wonderful source of all natural vitamin c. You also get all of the other benefits from the fruits it's made from. It is not all that great tasting and a bit gritty, but I don't mind because it is such a healthful product. Recommend another power-packed antioxidant complex at http://goo.gl/eByim, featuring standardized extracts from fruits, especially berries, as well as herbs, combining more than 25 plant-derived free radical fighters with a full 500 mg per tablet of the antioxidant vitamin C.

The reviews about the container seeming a bit empty are right- probably this is to make it look larger and to allow for larger labels...BUT, you must judge it by weight! The weight is accurate- just over 6 oz. This is a decent amount if you get a good price on the product. The ingredients are of high quality, the taste is great, and you'll feel energized after consuming it. It's good for cold/flu season. Click on my profile if you liked this review, See My profile too!

Vitamin C is a well known antioxidant that is known to reduce high blood pressure, help protect from the cardiovascular diseases, hypertension, stroke, prevent cancer, kidney stones, boost immune system, helps to detox by binding to heavy metals, pro moting healings in cells, support good bacteria while destroying bad bacteria, protect from environmental toxins, osteoporosis, support collagen in maintaining healthy skin and many others! Vitamin C has over 80 years of research, over thousand studies and a very safe record even if taken at high doses. What is best about this product it consists of natural Vitamin C and its co factors, Natural Vitamin C complex are known to work in synergy with bioactivity up 10-30 times more than isolated Vitamin C! In addition, its co factors like rutin, bioflavonoids come with its set of their own benefits as well! As for the taste, it is bitter and best to mix with sweeter stuff. The product consists of either organic (no pesticides) or wild crafted (more nutrition than farm-based) which is a plus factor. The downside is that they use silica in their product as a flow agent and the powder does not dissolve well enough. It is also more pricey per mg as compared to other natural vitamin C products.
