<p>Episode 21:35 Here’s What’s Wrong With Your Vitamin C</p> <p>There’s a problem with most nutritional supplements being sold today.</p> <p>Especially those that are vitamins.</p> <p>For example, vitamin C.</p> <p>To sell a Vitamin C supplement, a manufacturer only has to include ONE component of “real” Vitamin C.</p> <p>Just one component of the “complex” of nutrients that comprise Vitamin C in nature.</p> <p>That one component is Ascorbic Acid.</p> <p>Make Ascorbic Acid and you can sell it as Vitamin C.</p> <p>Here’s the problem:</p> <p>NOWHERE in nature does Ascorbic Acid exist by itself.</p> <p>Not in any fruit… nor in any vegetable.</p> <p>Instead, Ascorbic Acid is ALWAYS surrounded by “co-factors”… nutrients such as bioflavonoids, antioxidants and enzymes.</p> <p>The COMBINATION of these nutrients is what makes Vitamin C effective… NOT simply Ascorbic Acid by itself.</p> <p>Unfortunately, most supplement companies don’t care about that so they take the easy way out.</p> <p>They hire a manufacturing plant (most likely in China) to synthetically produce Ascorbic Acid from petroleum and GMO corn.</p> <p>Yuck.</p> <p>Not to mention that this so-called Vitamin C is void of its vital co-factors.</p> <p>And its effectiveness.</p> <p>Listen to this episode and learn WHY your body doesn’t need what is currently being sold by most supplement companies:</p> <p>1000mg, or more, of Vitamin C in the form of Ascorbic Acid.</p> <p>A much better supplement would be one that provides a fraction of that amount of Ascorbic Acid... surrounded by its co-factors.</p> <p>And…</p> <p>The ONLY way to do that - the only way to provide REAL Vitamin C as a “Complex” - is by making the supplement from “whole foods.”</p> <p>The way companies like Standard Process do.</p> <p>One more thing:</p> <p>This principle of “Vitamin Complexes” being more effective than ONE isolated component applies to ALL vitamins and minerals.</p> <p>That is, vitamin and mineral supplements are much more powerful when they are derived from WHOLE FOODS and not s
