ProtoSorb™ C is a unique formulation featuring Transport C-PLUS® threonic Acid, which has been shown to enhance uptake of vitamin C. This buffered, non-acidic vitamin C supplement also contributes alpha-lipoic acid, a free radical scavenger known to help regenerate both vitamin C and glutathione in the body. Studies suggest that alpha-lipoic acid may further promote the body’s utilization of vitamin C, by activating uptake into cells via the glucose transport pathways. Bioflavonoids also synergistically participate at the cellular level to create a well-absorbed, highly biologically available vitamin C supplement. Vitamin C is required for the synthesis of collagen, a structural component of blood vessels, tendons, ligaments, and bone.
