Acerola 1000 by Orthonat is a food supplement that provides natural vitamin C from acerola. Vitamin C is involved in a multitude of reactions in the body:
-Participates in the formation of collagen to ensure the normal functioning of blood vessels, bones, cartilage, gums, teeth, but also the skin. -Contributes to energy metabolism and helps reduce fatigue. -Participates in the functioning of the nervous system. -It is involved in the proper functioning of the immune system. -Helps protect cells against oxidative stress. It is also necessary for the regeneration of the active form of vitamin E. -Increases the absorption of iron.
The associated bioflavonoids offer a complementary action to that of vitamin C, especially reinforcing capillary resistance. This association is characterized by a very high bioavailability as well as a long-lasting, delayed action.
To maintain the properties of the vitamin C contained in acerola and prevent its oxidation, all necessary precautions are taken in the production of this product. The cherry juice is first squeezed and then concentrated by a zéohydration process. This process achieves that a concentrated active powder is obtained without the molecule having undergone any alteration.
