Benefits:
- Melrose vitamin C powders give you the flexibility to quickly and easily take what you need, when you need it. Your daily vitamin C requirement depends on a variety of factors (e.g. age, gender, lifestyle, the seasons and other health challenges) and is best taken in smaller, frequent doses to maximise absorption and keep your levels high.
- Vitamin D, the “sunshine vitamin”, helps support the immune system by triggering an antimicrobial response, allowing the body to fight off pathogens before they cause infection. Vitamin D deficiency is a common problem affecting over 30% of adults in Australia. Low vitamin D levels can negatively affect the metabolism of minerals, bone health, and muscle function.
- Zinc is the second most abundant essential trace mineral in your body. It’s crucial for the normal development and function of immune cells plus skin health and healing. Beta-glucan from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) is a soluble dietary fibre that stimulates white blood cells responsible for killing off disease-causing pathogens
- Olive leaf extract contains the active ingredient oleuropein, a strong antioxidant shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties. It may help to support your immune system by reducing free radical damage, inflammation and germs.
