Did you know that Flight Attendants have the highest rate of certain types of cancer than any profession? Dr Monica Lewis in a recent presentation stated that a study was conducted giving flight attendants a huge dose of Vitamin C before takeoff and within 2 hours all had been depleted from their system. So now we know what to take when we fly! And that taking it once a day is not adequate.Benefits of Poly C:
>>Maintains healthy immune system
>>Supports the production of collagen
>>Prevents cancer
>>Gives you a longer life
Humans and pigs are the only two species that cannot produce their own Vitamin C. For other species when they are in a stressful situation – eg a zebra being chased by a lion – their body will produce high levels of Vitamin C to deal with the stress and prevent oxidation. We humans cannot do this – so when we deal with environmental or emotional stress we burn up all Vitamin C present in our body AND oxidize. Oxidation leads to degenerative diseases such as cancer. We must get all our Vitamin C entirely from our diet.
And now with the current food chain and environment we must supplement to get what Vitamin C our bodies need.
Tyson Ng stated that it is generally recommended that people take a daily dosage of at least 2000mg of Vitamin C. He also said that if you are under a lot of stress, have cancer, are in a place with a lot of pollution then you should take more – 5000mg and above depending on your condition.
USANA Poly C differs from most other Vitamin C’s on the market as it is a patented blend of ascorbates with other minerals to ensure the Vitamin C stays in the body at a higher level for longer. Therefore bringing more benefit to you and your immune system.
