April 4th is National Vitamin C Day!
On National Vitamin C Day (and every day), it's important to realize how much we need vitamin C. We quite literally can't live without it!
Vitamin C is essential for humans, but unlike most animals, we can’t make it ourselves. We must get it from food – or when deficient, from therapeutic high-dose vitamin C treatments like ASCOR® (Ascorbic Acid Injection).
Vitamin C deficiency is more common than you may know, affecting many at-risk populations. The symptoms can be subtle and often overlooked, resulting from impaired collagen synthesis, oxidative stress and weakened immune function.
Symptoms of vitamin C deficiency may include:
- Fatigue
- Irritability
- Depression or mood swings
- Loss of appetite
- Bleeding gums
- Dry skin
We’re proud to offer doctors ASCOR as a treatment option for their patients.
ASCOR is the original FDA-approved Ascorbic Acid Injection for the treatment of patients with vitamin C deficiency, under the supervision of healthcare providers.
ASCOR was developed by McGuff without any preservatives, GMOs or traceable levels of corn.
