Cyto-Matrix - C-Matrix - 60 v-caps

1. Contains a synergistic combination of flavonoids from citrus, sea buckthorn and rutin to maximize absorption and recycling of ascorbic acid
2. Vitamin C is delivered in a pH neutral blend using a buffered mineral delivery system

C·Matrix contains a combination of buffered vitamin C and bioflavonoids that provide well-absorbed and well-balanced antioxidant support. By binding ascorbic acid with minerals such as magnesium, calcium, sodium and potassium, C-Matrix offers a product that is pH-neutral and, therefore, quite gentle on the digestive tract. The addition of various bioflavonoids allows for better utilization of vitamin C within the body.

Bioflavonoids are plant compounds found in citrus fruits, apples, tea and many other foods, with health-promoting properties. Research has shown that they have potent anti-inflammatory, anti-allergy, anti-bacterial, anti-thrombotic and anti-oxidant abilities, capable of inhibiting LDL cholesterol oxidation. When combined with vitamin C, their health-promoting capacities are even greater.

Bioflavonoids, including rutin, work synergistically with vitamin C to improve the integrity of blood vessels, capillaries and the cardiovascular system as a whole. Specifically, bioflavonoids inhibit the oxidation of vitamin C, thereby having a sparing effect on the crucial nutrient. Evidence of this ability to ‘recycle’ vitamin C and strengthen blood vessels can be seen in animal studies, where the addition of flavonoids to a vitamin C deficient population leads to significantly less bleeding.

Two capsules of C·Matrix provides 1000mg of pure ascorbic acid with therapeutic amounts of citrus bioflavonoids, rutin and sea buckthorn extract for optimal absorption and bioavailability.
