Quest Vitamin C 1000 mg Timed Release is a high-quality vitamin C supplement formulated to release the vitamin C gradually over a period of four hours, thus keeping the tissues saturated and replenished with the vitamin C that is used up during physiological activities. This supplement is also enhanced with citrus bioflavonoids for added potency. Vitamin C helps to protect all body tissues from damage by free radicals and toxins. This nutrient plays an important role in the normal development and maintenance of bones, teeth, gums, cartilage, and skin. Vitamin C with citrus bioflavonoids helps maintain the structural health and permeability of capillaries, thus helping to prevent bleeding disorders, including spider veins, varicose veins, hemorrhages, and easy bruising.
