Humans are among the few animals that are unable to make their own vitamin C. Instead we have to get it from food, drink or 
supplements.
Scientists claim that the stresses of modern life heavily deplete the body of vitamin C. Smokers in particular are effected with one cigarette reported to destroy 25mg of vitamin C.
Why Absorbent vitamin C? The vitamin is water soluble so it passes quickly through the body and the benefit can be lost. Forever’s Absorbent-C contains oat bran which acts like a sponge in the stomach, slowing down the digestion period and allowing much more of the vitamin C to be absorbed.
Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant, a natural anti-histamine and is said to be beneficial for skin, joints, respiratory problems and cataracts. Research is continuing into the possible role of the vitamin in the prevention of cancer and heart disease.
