taxofit® Zinc + Vitamin C Depot
Ingredients
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid)OccurrenceAscorbic acid occurs in fresh fruits and vegetables. Good vitamin C suppliers are e.g. blackcurrants, bell peppers, broccoli, straw berries and citrus fruits.
EffectsVitamin C is an antioxidative vitamin, this means it protects cells but also other vitamins from destruction by aggressive oxygen – the so-called free radicals. It regulates the oxygen supply of the cells and stimulates the body defence activity of white blood cells.
ZincOccurrenceCopious amounts of zinc can be found in yeast, oysters, rye and wheat germs, wheat bran, oatmeal, innards, and cheese. Milk, nuts, vegetables, and drinking water contain a little less zinc.
EffectsZinc activates 70 enzymes that are essential to the human body; it enhances the effectiveness of insulin, has an influence on sexual hormones, and is also involved in twilight vision and wound healing. It plays an essential role in amino acid metabolism and assists in the production of antibodies for the immune defence system.
