Vitamin C Quali®C in capsules

In high -level sportsmen, the daily intake of 250 mg of vitamin C + 400 IU of vitamin E decreases muscle damage following the repetition of training (2). Vitamin C thus promotes recovery. In combination with zinc (10 mg), a 5 -day cure of vitamin C (1 g) makes it possible to reduce the duration of a cold by 9 to 27 % (3).

Vitamin C also promotes carnitine assimilation (4). On the contrary, a lack of vitamin C results in difficulties of eliminating fat, due to the bad metabolism of carnitine thus caused (4). In the event of a decrease in vitamin C level, the transfer of carnitine from blood to muscles (where it produces its anti-fat action) is lowered.

Because of your acidic pH, it is preferable to separate the intake of vitamin C and potassium bicarbonate of at least 30 minutes.

Quali®-C is vitamin C (or L-ascorbic acid) of pharmaceutical quality produced by the European brand DSM Certified HACCP and ISO9001. DSM has been making vitamins for over 75 years, this is one of its specialties, with "high-tech" proteins like Peptopro®.


the DSM laboratory that makes the Quali® -C is the only one in Europe to produce vitamin C. Thanks to the Quali®-C DSM, you can supplement yourself with a rigorously controlled vitamin C rather than with a product of unknown origin, of dubious traceability, of purity of purity questionable and random dosage. On the other hand, Quali®-C guarantees that no GMO product is included in the manufacture of your vitamin C.

Vitamin C molecules are altered by heat, light, oxygen. It is therefore preferable not to heat it or transfer it to a transparent pot. If you do not use your Vitamin C Quali®-C Nutrimuscle regularly and you want to keep it for subsequent use, its refrigeration allows its effectiveness.

Vitamin C exerts antioxidant properties both inside and outside our cells. It also increases the proliferation of immune cells. On the contrary, a diet poor in vitamin C for 32 days lowers the effectiveness of certain immune defenses of 69 %. The immune weakening induced by a lack of vitamin C is very durable: after 28 days of a daily re-supplementation of 245 mg, the immune response remains 52 % lower than that of departure. > The immune benefits of vitamin C is translated concretely into the incidence of colds, for example. For 5 years, men and women received daily either 50 mg or 500 mg of vitamin C (1). Compared to the 50 mg, supplementation at 500 mg reduces the chances of catching a cold by 20 % and 70 % the chances of having more than three colds over 5 years.

Vitamin C also participates in reducing fatigue and exhaustion, as well as the normal formation of collagen to promote the health of the skin, teeth, cartilage and bones.

Finally , it protects cells from oxidative stress and contributes to normal psychological functions.

Vitamin C Quali®-C Nutrimuscle is addressed:

To athletes, so the needs in vitamins C are more important than sedentary.
to sedentary for its immune action and in order to protect up from future colds.

If some scientists recommend mega doses of vitamin C, others preach for moderation. Thus, we will only make everyone's arguments here.

In patients with advanced cancer, whose conventional pharmaceutical treatments have been held in check, taking mega doses (1 g per minute) vitamin C in infusion for 4 weeks was very well tolerated (1 -2). Indeed, only very large doses are capable of producing destructive effects on cancer cells. Under these conditions, the life of certain cancer patients can be prolonged thanks to vitamin C (3).

Research concerning doses twice as high as those mentioned are being carried out. However, these are quantities that it is impossible to reach by oral sockets, but which underline the safety of vitamin C at the usually recommended doses. On the contrary, some studies show that more doses of vitamin C increase oxidative damage such as those induced by muscle efforts (4).
