Vitamin C Thorne – 90 Cap(s)

Although you might rely on vitamin C only during the winter months, this vitamin can support your overall health every day. Vitamin C has many roles in your body and is linked to impressive health benefits, including immune function, collagen formation, and supporting liver detoxification.*

Because vitamin C is a vitamin that the body can’t produce, it must be obtained from the diet or by supplementation.

Thorne’s Vitamin C with Flavonoids contains ascorbic acid and naturally occurring citrus flavonoids. The flavonoids provide greater antioxidant capacity than Vitamin C does alone, thus better scavenging free radicals within the body.*

Benefits of Vitamin C with Flavonoids:

  • •   Promotes optimal immune function*
  • •   Important in collagen production, which enhances skin, nail, and hair health*
  • •   Supports healthy tissue and cartilage formation, a benefit during wound healing and injury repair*
  • •   Plays a role in phase I liver detoxification, plus its antioxidant properties help protect against the toxic effects of heavy metals*
  • •   Helps increase glutathione, a potent antioxidant necessary for supporting phase II liver detoxification*

The benefits of collagen production, its antioxidant status, and immune support make vitamin C an important nutrient for surgery patients to support wound healing.

Vitamin B Supreme – 120 Cap(s)

This very powerful B vitamin combination formula supplies most of the B vitamins in their coenzymated forms, so the body does not have to phosphorylate them in order to be used in biochemical reactions.

Made with non-GMO ingredients.

Liposomal Vitamin C – 24 teaspoons

Liposomal Vitamin C provides this key foundational nutrient formulated with liposomal technology. Liposomes are spheres made of phospholipids—the primary building blocks of cell membranes. Owing to this structure, liposomes bond easily with cell membranes to facilitate intracellular delivery of their nutrient cargo. Thanks to this enhanced delivery and absorption, nutrients delivered in liposomal form offer superior absorption and bioavailability.

Each 5 mL serving (approximately 1 teaspoon) of this lemon flavored formula provides 1000 mg vitamin C, as sodium ascorbate. The 130 mg sodium per serving helps to further facilitate absorption of vitamin C.

Vitamin K – Genova Labs

Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that functions as a cofactor in the production of blood coagulation factors (in the liver), osteocalcin (in bone), and matrix Gla-proteins (in cartilage and vessel walls), each resulting in the deposition of ionic calcium. This is a blood test. This price includes the lab test and interpretation by Dr. Celaya.

Vitamin K status is especially important in individuals:

  • With cardiovascular disease or those with a family history of arteriosclerosis
  • At high risk of bone loss, such as pre- and post-menopausal women or those with a family history of osteoporosis
  • On certain drug therapies, particularly blood thinners, such as warfarin or aspirin
  • On restricted diets
  • On long-term antibiotic therapies

Vitamin B12 – 60 Lozenges

Vitamin B12 lozenges are a great tasting, high dose vitamin B12 product. Each berry flavored lozenge contains 5000 mcg methylcobalamin, a naturally occurring, highly bioavailable form of vitamin B12. They are designed to deliver B12 through the mucous membranes in order to bypass the need for intrinsic factor, a protein produced in the stomach that is necessary for maximal GI absorption of B12. Vitamin B12 in supplement form also reduces the need for stomach acid, which is typically required to separate food-derived B12 from food proteins.

It is important to let the lozenge dissolve slowly and not chew it in order to allow the vitamin to be absorbed properly through the mucosal tissue that lines mouth.

Made with GMO-free ingredients.

Vitamin D (50 mcg or 2,000 IU) to meet increased needs for fetal growth and bone development,* and phosphatidylcholine, a bioavailable form of choline that supports fetal brain development and maternal liver function help round out the formulation.*

Metafolin® is a registered trademark of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany
