Occasional constipation is one of the most frequent gastrointestinal complaints in the United States, particularly among women and the elderly. To address this issue, Life Extension® offers a dose-adjustable nutritional solution—Life Extension Effervescent Vitamin C - Magnesium Crystal to provide immediate relief from occasional constipation.
Vitamin C is an antioxidant that scavenges free radicals in the body and protects tissues from oxidative stress. Vitamin C is a vital cofactor for the formation of collagen, the connective tissue that supports arterial walls, skin, bones, and teeth.
Magnesium is a cofactor in hundreds of enzymatic processes within cells, helps maintain healthy blood pressure levels already within normal range, improves the metabolic profile, and beneficially impacts insulin resistance and inflammation. Research shows many Americans do not obtain adequate magnesium in their diets.
Effervescent Vitamin C - Magnesium Crystals can be used in varying doses depending on individual need. It contains no harsh chemicals and is safe for up to three times per week, since it contains only nutrients that provide other benefits. Effervescent Vitamin C - Magnesium Crystals is not a fiber—so it never creates more fecal bulk than you can easily evacuate.
Directions: Drink one level teaspoon mixed in eight ounces of water, without food, followed by an additional eight ounces of water all at once, or as recommended by a healthcare practitioner. Take up to 3 times per week.
