How does the ingredient of the medicine work?

The active ingredient is water-soluble vitamin C. It supports the immune system in the fight against pests and, together with vitamin E, renders aggressive oxygen compounds and so-called free radicals harmless. Less serious illnesses such as a cold or flu-like infection are positively influenced. It also accelerates blood clotting, keeps some toxic heavy metals in check and enables the body to absorb more iron from the intestines. The active ingredient can also act as a buffer, helping to make a medicine more stomach-friendly.
