Home made Vitamin C

MAKE YOUR OWN REAL VITAMIN C WITH NO COST TO YOU

Synthetic vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is not found in nature. It does not grow naturally in plants or trees and cannot be grown on a farm. It can only be made in a lab. Contrary to popular belief, ascorbic acid and vitamin C are not the same thing. Ascorbic acid is not a complete vitamin, but really only the outer layer of the complete complex known as vitamin C. Most vitamin C is made from glucose derived from GMO corn.

Ascorbic acid kills the good bacteria in your gut. They add ascorbic acid to many juices, including some organic apple juices, and do not have to list it in the ingredients.

The complete complex of vitamin C as found in natural food sources is composed of these elements:

- Rutinbiofavonoids (vitamin P) factor K

- Factor Jfactor P Tyrosinase

- Ascorbinogen ascorbic acid

All of the above elements must be present in order for the body to absorb and benefit from the vitamin complex. Since synthetic ascorbic acid does not contain the full complex, your body must either gather the missing components from the body's reservoir, or simply eliminate the ascorbic acid from the body through the urine without benefit to the body.

According to the latest scientific research, Vitamin C leads to more effective skin regeneration and protects the skin from DNA damage. Vitamin C detoxifies our bodies and aids in the healing of all of our cells. Unfortunately, most people do not get enough of Vitamin C to reap all the wonderful properties it has to offer.
