Enerex uses PETE plastic containers, a thermoplastic polymer  resin. PETE plastic provides a superior moisture and oxygen barrier  compared to the more common HDPE plastic that most vitamin manufacturers  use.

Vitamin C is actually a vital nutrient to keep you healthy all year  long, being involved in virtually every biochemical and biological  reaction in your body. It works hard every minute to keep your body  alive in addition to its immune supporting role.

Enerex Bio C 1000 provides an equal ratio of pure Vitamin C and its  cohort Bioflavonoids in 500 mg potencies each. These two are better  absorbed in the presence of each other and more effective when working  together. We use the highest quality ingredients with the Bioflavonoids  derived from citrus fruit and having a high 22% Hesperidin content.

Vitamin C doesn’t just fight Colds; it makes Collagen and Connective  tissue; it’s needed during Chronic stress; it is vital for  Cardiovascular health; and it may fight Cancer.

The list of its daily duties is long. Here are just some of the health benefits it provides: 

• Tissue formation: Vitamin C manufactures collagen, the most important protein in the  human body that is needed for healthy skin, bone, teeth, gums,  connective tissue, tendons and cartilage. 
• Stress reduction: The greatest concentration of Vitamin C is in our adrenal glands where  it is used to produce the stress response hormones adrenaline, cortisol  and histamine. Vitamin C is essential to handle stress. 
• Anti-aging: Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant, protecting cells against the destructive effects of free radicals. 
• Cancer: Vitamin C stimulates the activities of natural killer cells (a type of  white blood cell) and anti-cancer agents. Low blood levels of Vitamin C  are correlated with a greater risk of having certain forms of cancer. 
• Osteoporosis: Vitamin C may help to prevent bone loss by reducing the “break-down”  activity of the cells that removes calcium from bones. It also helps the  body to absorb calcium from foods, which aids in bone development. 
• Cardiovascular health: Vitamin C, in combination with Vitamin E, raises HDL (good) and lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol, reduces plaque formation, helps lower high blood pressure, and lowers heart disease risk. 
• Immune function: Vitamin C stimulates lymphocytes (immune cells that fight infection and  disease), and increases other types of white blood cells to enhance the  immune system’s effectiveness.

Bioflavonoids

Bioflavonoids – Hesperidin, Quercitin, Naringin and Rutin – are  needed for the body to absorb and use Vitamin C. In research, Ascorbic  Acid by itself does not have the same benefits that it does with  co-factor nutrients including Rutin, “Vitamin P” and other  Bioflavonoids. (For example, Ascorbic Acid, which is the only ingredient  in many Vitamin C supplements, does not even prevent scurvy when used  by itself, according to studies.)         

They offer antioxidant protection especially for the heart and circulatory system, strengthen  the immune system, protect the liver, help protect blood vessels from  rupture or leakage, and prevent excessive inflammation throughout the  body. The bioavailability of Bioflavonoids is increased when Vitamin C  is present.          

Enerex Bio C 1000 offers a 1:1 ratio of Vitamin C  and its absorption-helper nutrients called Bioflavonoids to make these  nutrients work most effectively, and help your body gain the full power  of Vitamin C. There is 500 mg of each provided in every dose (combining  Ascorbic Acid and citrus fruit Bioflavonoids) to total 1000 mg.

Are you getting enough?

Stress, smoking, eating excessive sugar, exposure to UV rays, and  certain pharmaceuticals (cortisone, tetracycline, birth control pill,  aspirin) impact Vitamin C in the body. Studies have shown that people  under chronic psychological or physical stress have lower levels of  Vitamin C since stress increases Vitamin C excretion. Health Canada has  set the recommended daily intake of Vitamin C at a maximum 2000  milligrams. In data from NHANES*, a nation-wide study done from 2003  through 2006, the population surveyed ate only 37% of the recommended  daily amount of Vitamin C in total from all food sources (excluding  supplements).                      

The Enerex Advantage

Enerex Bio C 1000 contains the highest quality  ingredients available: "C99" Vitamin C and "22% Hesperidin" (as measured  by High Pressure Liquid Chromatography) Bioflavanoids. These quality  markers place this immune product above other supplements. BIO C 1000 tablets contain 500 mg of Vitamin C plus 500 mg of citrus  Bioflavonoids; this equal ratio is solidly based upon published  peer-reviewed human studies showing this to be the optimal approach.

Many products that contain Bioflavonoids use a less costly and less  effective form. The only way to determine the quality in a formula is to  see if the label indicates the amount of Hesperidin present. If no  claim is made for the Hesperidin content, then the product is less  likely to contain the higher grade.
