When you add Vitamin C to Aloe vera, you get
a new combination with significant benefits. A
recent study conducted by Dr. Joe Vinson at Scranton
University concluded that consuming Vitamin E
or Vitamin C with Aloe vera increased the half-life
of those vitamins in blood plasma. This research
suggests that you can increase the bioavailability
of Vitamin C when it is combined with Aloe vera.*
Vitamin C is a nutritional star on its own. While
no one claims it can cure the common cold, it
may help you feel a whole lot better by reducing
a cold’s severity and duration.* In fact, one
study showed Vitamin C reduced the duration of
a common cold by 21%, while another found it reduced
both the severity and length of respiratory infections
in a group of marathon runners.*
But the Vitamin C story doesn’t end there. Other
studies show that Vitamin C may protect against
free radical damage to the eye lens. An ongoing
nurse’s health study found that women using Vitamin
C supplementation long term had healthier eyes
and a 77% lower risk of eye problems, compared
to women who did not take the supplement. Of course,
it is important to eat a healthy diet, too. Remember
to eat plenty of Vitamin C-rich foods like kale,
spinach and oranges.
