Product Details:
Most people are familiar with the term “limey” for a sailor, and know that its origin came from the fact
that sailors were advised to eat limes and other citrus fruits to avoid developing scurvy. Although
scurvy has been described and documented as far back as Hippocrates, it was not until the 1700s
when a Scottish captain in the British Royal Navy, Dr. James Lind, proved that eating citrus fruit
prevented scurvy. Deciding it was the acidic nature of the citrus fruit, doctors of that time thought
limes would be even more beneficial and thus the British Royal Navy stocked limes on their ships.
Since that time a great deal of research and study has gone into documenting what the constituents
of these fruits are and how they benefit our health.
Due to this work we have greatly advanced our understanding of ascorbic acid. It has been widely
used clinically and nutritionally as an antioxidant; for immune support; as treatment for colds and
the flu; to support adrenal function; for its ability to make healthy tissue through the formation and
maintenance of collagen; to assist with a wide range of viral, bacterial, and fungal infections; and for
inflammatory problems of all kinds.
Alka-C is ascorbic acid from ascorbates. Ascorbic
acid has been shown to be absorbed into the body
within two hours and be gone from the blood within
three to four hours. It is used up more rapidly under
stressful situations, with diabetes, in the elderly, with
smoking and with alcohol use. It is likely the most well
known and most commonly supplemented vitamin.
The combination of ascorbic acid, other chelated
forms of minerals and a significant amount of
bioflavonoids makes Alka-C an easily absorbed and
effective vitamin C supplement and a staple for any
natural pharmacy.
