ZENITH NUTRITION VITAMIN C & ZINC
Zenith Nutrition vitamin C and Zinc is a dietary supplement which contains vitamin C derived from amla (Phyllanthus Emblica) extract and Zinc Sulphate which is a micronutrient essential for several biological functions in the body.
The combination of vitamin and mineral work to ensure the optimum absorption of both.
VEGAN | SUGAR-FREE | GMP-CERTIFIED | 100% BIOAVAILABE | SUITABLE FOR MEN & WOMEN
WHY SUPPLEMENT WITH VITAMIN C & ZINC?
Vitamin C cannot be synthesized in the body and hence obtaining it through diet or supplements is essential.
The diet in the elderly does not provide a sufficient level of nutrients needed to maintain an adequate health status which leads to micronutrient deficiencies and poor immune response.
WHAT CAUSES POOR ABSORPTION OF VITAMIN C?
Stress/alcohol intake/smoking/ illness/usage of antibiotics/exposure to heavy metal toxicity/poor diet/strenuous exercise
Increased absorption of vitamin C in these conditions or decreased absorption from the gut could be a cause of decreased vitamin C level.
SYMPTOMS OF DEFICIENCY OF VITAMIN C & ZINC
Frequent infections
Bleeding gums
Muscle degeneration
Low immunity
iKEY NUTRIENTS FOR IMMUNITY: Our immune system is complex and needs specific nutrients to keep it strong and healthy. Zinc is responsible for several functions in the human body, it stimulates the activity of at least 100 different enzymes. It affects how our cells respond to infections and can help keep inflammation under control. Vitamin C is proven to be a crucial player in various aspects of the immune system
POWERFUL ANTIOXIDANT: Vitamin C is an important physiological antioxidant which has been shown to regenerate other antioxidants within the body, including vitamin E. It protects the cells from damage caused by free radicals that we are exposed to in the environment such as air pollution, cigarette smoke, UV-light. Vitamin C readily scavenges reactive oxygen, nitrogen species
SUPPORT HEALTHY IMMUNE RESPONSE: Maintaining the immune system at optimum levels is key to avoid infections. Vitamin C supports epithelial barrier function against pathogens and promotes oxidant scavenging activity of the skin, thereby potentially protects against environmental oxidative stress. It facilitates the ability of cells to initiate protective cellular defenses. Zinc deficiency adversely affects the T and B cells.
OPTIMUM MICRONUTRIENT INTAKE: Both vitamin C and Zinc are crucial for immunity but the body is unable to synthesize endogenously. Zinc is essential for the normal development and growth of the cells mediating innate immunity like neutrophils, natural killer cells. Lifestyle-related factors like eating an unbalanced diet, facing periods of excessive physical or psychological stress, smoking, and alcohol consumption may all increase this micronutrient status in the body.
