It’s well-known that Vitamin C is good for our bodies and that it benefits our immune system. A dose of Vitamin C can help get through nasty colds, and a big plus is that it tastes reaaally good in those chewable tablets. But do you know the two faces of Vitamin C, and what it actually does to benefit your body?

 

Vitamin C Infusion

Vitamin C, aka Ascorbic Acid, is an antioxidant that scours your body for harmful free radicals and both preserves and promotes healthy cell growth, all while boosting your immune system. But Vitamin C is also a pro-oxidant that prevents harmful damage to lipids and other small molecules in your body. When your body receives a Vitamin C infusion that is paired with zinc, this two-faced combination maturates T-cell function, which is a fancy way of saying that it produces a critical component that our bodies need to fight off colds and cases of flu.

At Onus IV, we know how important it is for you to feel your best. That's why we offer our High-Dose Vitamin C IV, to add an additional “Tool in your toolbox” of wellness.You'll need a doctor's note for this one from your primary care provider, so call ahead for questions and answers on protocol.
