Description

The Vitamin E and Vitamin C Softgel capsules contain a unique combination of the goodness of vitamins E and C. Vitamin C is also known as ascorbic acid, usually found in citrus fruits, and vegetables. It is an antioxidant that helps protect the cells against the effect of free radicals (molecules produced when your body breaks down food or is exposed to tobacco smoke and radiation from the sun, X-rays, or other sources). These free radicals are responsible for causing many serious health conditions like heart attacks and cancer. Regular intake of Vitamin C is known to provide benefits like boosting antioxidant levels, lowering blood pressure, protecting against gout attacks, improving iron absorption, boosting immunity, and reducing heart disease and dementia risk.

Vitamin E is a fat-soluble vitamin, which means that it requires fat for its absorption in the body. The most potent and commonly known Vitamin E is Alpha-tocopherol which is used to be sold as a dietary supplement. Due to its affinity to fat, its natural sources are mostly fat-dense food items. Vitamin E is present in nuts (peanuts, almonds, hazelnuts) and vegetable oils (wheat germ oil, sunflower, corn, and safflower and soybean oils). Vitamin E is also an antioxidant that counters oxidative stress in the body. Regular consumption of Vitamin E is known to benefit by maintaining healthy skin and eyes and strengthening the body’s natural defense against illness and infection (the immune system). The Softgel capsules contain the combined benefits of Vitamin E and C, giving you all benefits in one place.
