VITAMIN C WITH POLYPHENOLS

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is much more than just an antioxidant to support our immune system as we've been taught. It is primarily a redox balancer which means that it regulates the gain and loss of electrons of various molecules in various biological systems. For example, vitamin C is needed to make hydrogen peroxide by immune cells to kill pathogens. Vitamin C however, is also needed to neutralize any excess is made. Vitamin C is involved in renewing vitamin E levels.  We live in a microwaved world that we cannot escape, and this lowers our redox potential (Reduction-Oxidation) of our mitochondria. Quite literally, the mini-sun in our cells, , the mitochondria, requires a balanced redox state to generate energy and maintain the electrical effects of our bodies Ascorbate is the negatively charged anion of ascorbic acid, and it is found in almost every tissue of the body. By taking ascorbic acid, we increase our plasma levels of ascorbate which then transfers into our tis
