KAIZEN ASCORBYL PALMITATE is a fat (lipid) soluble VITAMIN C, which means it is more stable and won't flush out of
your system like water soluble VITAMIN C (Ascorbic Acid) supplements.
Because of its solubility in fats, KAIZEN ASCORBYL PALMITATE may be more effective as an antioxidant in preventing lipid peroxidation
than water soluble VITAMIN C . You may require less dosage, because
it is not being wasted. ASCORBYL is the VITAMIN C component. PALMITATE is the fat soluble part. The two together are a chemical
bond making one molecule. 500mg of KAIZEN ASCORBYL PALMITATE supplies
225mg of VITAMIN C.

Many people think VITAMIN C is just used to prevent and cure the
common cold, but it also has many other important functions. The main
role of VITAMIN C is in the manufacture of collagen. This protein
forms the basis of connective tissue, the most abundant tissue in the
body, and acts as a cementing substance between cells. It helps support
and protect blood vessels, bones, joints, organs and muscles. It forms
a sizable proportion of skin, tendons, the cornea of the eye, ligaments,
cartilage, teeth and bone. Collagen forms a protective barrier against
infection and disease, and promotes healing of wounds, fractures and bruises.
The symptoms of a lack of VITAMIN C , mainly due to poorly formed
collagen, include the breaking open of small blood vessels, the reddening
and bleeding of gums, loose teeth, joint pains, dry scaly skin and blood
vessel damage. Other symptoms include general weakness, fluid retention,
depression and anemia. A lack of VITAMIN C could eventually lead
to scurvy.
VITAMIN C is critical to immune function and is a powerful antioxidant.
High intakes of it has
shown to lower the risk for cancers of the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach,
colon and lung.
VITAMIN C also plays a role in the manufacture of neurotransmitter.
It is necessary for the conversion of tryptophan to serotonin, and of
tyrosine to dopamine and adrenaline.
VITAMIN C is important in the synthesis of adrenal hormones and
is depleted from the adrenal glands in times of stress.
VITAMIN C is involved in the manufacture of carnitine, a substance
necessary for the production of energy from fatty acid in cells. It is
necessary for the activity of the enzyme system, which metabolizes drugs
in the body. It is also necessary for iron absorption and plays a role
in the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids for excretion.
