Oxifit-C Drops

  • Vitamin C (As Ascorbic Acid) is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a vital role in immune function, the synthesis of collagen, and the maintenance of skin, blood vessels, bones, and cartilage.
  • It is a powerful antioxidant, helping to protect cells from damage by free radicals, which are unstable molecules that can contribute to chronic diseases and aging.
  • Vitamin C is commonly found in fruits and vegetables, especially citrus fruits, strawberries, and peppers. However, supplements like 100 mg/mL liquid forms provide a higher concentration, which can be beneficial for individuals with dietary deficiencies or increased needs.
  • Recommended Usage
Indications:

This high-concentration Vitamin C product may be used for:

  • Boosting Immune System: Vitamin C is essential for proper immune system function and can help reduce the severity and duration of cold symptoms.
  • Antioxidant Protection: As an antioxidant, Vitamin C helps protect the body against oxidative stress, which can damage cells and contribute to aging and diseases like cancer or heart disease.
  • Collagen Formation: Vitamin C is necessary for the synthesis of collagen, a structural protein that helps maintain healthy skin, cartilage, blood vessels, and bones.
  • Wound Healing: Since it is critical for collagen production, Vitamin C supports the healing of wounds and injuries.
  • Iron Absorption: Vitamin C enhances the absorption of non-heme iron from plant-based foods, which is beneficial for individuals with iron deficiency anemia.
  • Skin Health: Vitamin C is often used to improve the appearance of skin, reduce wrinkles, and promote collagen production, making it a common ingredient in skincare products.
  • Prevention of Scurvy: Vitamin C deficiency can lead to scurvy, a condition characterized by weakness, gum disease, and skin issues.
Dosage and Administration:
  • Standard Dosage: With 100 mg per mL, this is a high-dose liquid form of Vitamin C, typically intended to be taken in small amounts, often a few drops or 1 mL per dose, depending on the recommendation.
    • For general health, a common daily dose may range from 250 mg to 1000 mg of Vitamin C, but this can vary based on individual health needs.
    • If using it for boosting immunity or in the case of illness, you may be directed to take higher doses, under medical supervision.
  • Administering: The product would typically be taken orally:
    • 1 mL of this liquid will provide 100 mg of Vitamin C.
    • You can measure it using a dropper or a syringe provided with the product.
  • With or Without Food: Vitamin C is water-soluble, so it can be taken with or without food, but if it causes any stomach upset, taking it with food might help.
  • Note: Always follow the dosage recommendations provided on the product label or as directed by your healthcare provider.
Precautions:
  • Excessive Dosage: Although Vitamin C is generally safe, taking large doses (typically above 2000 mg/day) can lead to side effects such as:
    • Diarrhea
    • Stomach cramps or gastritis (inflammation of the stomach lining)
    • Kidney stones (in very high doses over a long period).

    It’s important to stick to the recommended dosage unless otherwise directed by your healthcare provider.

  • Gastrointestinal Disturbances: Some individuals may experience gastrointestinal discomfort, especially at higher doses of Vitamin C. If this happens, reduce the dose or take it with food.
  • Kidney Issues: Individuals with kidney disease or a history of kidney stones should use Vitamin C supplements cautiously, as large doses can exacerbate kidney stone formation due to the excretion of oxalates.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Vitamin C is considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding when taken in normal dietary amounts. However, for high-dose Vitamin C, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before use.
  • Drug Interactions: Vitamin C may interact with certain medications, such as chemotherapy drugs, anticoagulants (blood thinners), and statins. Always inform your doctor about any medications you're taking before starting a Vitamin C supplement.
