Vitamin C. It’s vital for a reason. We often ass Vitamin C. It’s vital for a reason. We often associate this vitamin with immune system function but this vitamin plays a crucial role in our hormones as well. There are high concentrations of this vitamin in the pituitary gland, the adrenal glands and our reproductive organs. We can’t make this nutrient in our own, so we do need to get it in our diets or supplement. 95% of the vitamin C in our bodies is located in the adrenal glands. This is where stress hormones, cortisol and adrenaline are being made. When we have adequate levels of vitamin C, we ensure our adrenal glands are well nourished and able to maintain balance between those steroid hormones. As soon as you lower the stress levels in the body, the stage is set for other hormones to function more appropriately. Stress hormones compete with sex hormones, so it’s important to regulate that stress response when fertility is the goal. Regarding testosterone specifically, lower vitamin c levels in men is associated with higher levels of an enzyme that converts testosterone to estrogen… so for men concerned about healthy levels of testosterone, this is important! In men, Vitamin C is known to: ⚡️protect spermatogenesis ⚡️increases testosterone levels ⚡️chain breaking antioxidant (Fernandes 2011) In women: oxidative stress is attributed to endo, pcos, and the prospect of a successful pregnancy (Nath 2020) Ascorbic acid is the preservation layer on the exterior of the vitamin. Without the bioflavonoids, choline, vitamin K, tyrosinase (copper), you simply don’t get the benefit. This winter opt for a vitamin C that is in its purest, fullest form! Foods first, then pick a vitamin C if you do want to supplement (🙋🏼‍♀️) that’s made from food! If the back of the bottle has a list of foods as the main ingredient, then you’re on the right track. Come tell me your fav vitamin C foods in the comments: I’ll go first… 🍊🍓🍑🥔& cauliflower! #wholefoodnutrition #therootcauseprotocol #rcpc #mineralbalance #healthcoachaz #healthyhormones #fertility
By the end of this week, I’m going to convince y By the end of this week, I’m going to convince you of the fact that ascorbic acid IS NOT vitamin C. Ascorbic acid is simply the preservative on the exterior of the vitamin C structure. Our bodies cannot benefit in the same way taking ascorbic acid, as they can on a whole food vitamin C. In fact, our body does a really good job of excreting 90% of the ascorbic acid we ingest… perhaps there’s an inate intelligence here that we should lean into. Start looking for whole food vitamin C. It’s actually quite easy to find once you know what to look for. Obvious examples are oranges, lemons, grapefruit, tomatoes… What are some other good options? 💫 Camu camu berries 💫 Acerola cherry powder 💫 Kakadu plum 💫 black elderberry (sambucus nigra) 💫 purple coneflower echinacea 💫 St. John’s wort 💫 black currant buds A fully structured vitamin C has all of this: ⚡️Ascorbic Acid — this is the preservative part of the the complex. ⚡️Ascorbigen ⚡️P factors: At least one polyphenol flavinoid (Rutin or Hesperidin) which maintain our vascular integrity ⚡️J factor: Choline — increases the ability of our blood to carry oxygen ⚡️Vitamin K — promotes prothrombin which helps in blood clotting ⚡️Tyrosinase enzyme — Tyrosinase has copper at it’s core which is adrenal activating and linked to lymphocyte activity. All of these are important! Go back to nature and the way you’re meant to eat. Real food, whole foods, foods in seasons, foods you’ve preserved. #healthcoachaz #coldandfluseason #wholefoodnutrition #vitaminc #minerals #vitamins #adrenalgland #adrenalfatigue #adrenalcocktail #rootcauseprotocol
Have you been given the impression that vitamin C Have you been given the impression that vitamin C and ascorbic acid are the same? This is FALSE! These two are not the same. In fact, one is a naturally occurring plant substance, and the other is synthetically produced (there’s two methods of production, I’ll save that for another post). And while most of the “vitamin C” you’re being sold during cold and flu season is being marketed as vitamin C, it’s really just synthetic ascorbic acid and doesn’t hold a candle to whole food vitamin C. (WFC) In 1/10th the amount of ascorbic acid, WFC will yield superior results. “Vitamin C is a very poorly misunderstood vitamin and somewhere along the line it was decided any vitamin C product can be rated according to the amount of ascorbic acid it contains. Alone ascorbic acid is a weak antioxidant” Synthetic ascorbic acid is 90% excreted from the body and that alone should indicate the very poor health benefits of this substance. The body doesn’t recognize ascorbic acid as a natural compound and therefore does the work of rapidly getting rid of it. And if you think about it, it makes sense because it’s just a protective coating on the exterior of the full vitamin C structure. When you provide your body with real, naturally occurring vitamin C, you’ll be pleased to know that it is nearly 100 PERCENT ABSORBED.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…. MINERALS ARE IT ✨ If your hormones are off, I’d suggest taking a closer look at mineral levels. If you have recurrent infections, look at mineral imbalances. If you suffer from headaches, fatigue, low energy, lowered immune function, PMS, anxiety… you need minerals!! If there is a mineral deficiency or imbalance, there will be symptoms. Under stress, we use up mineral stores, especially magnesium! In order to replenish those stores we need to ensure we balance the system with adequate sodium and potassium. This primes our cells so they can take in the magnesium we are working to replenish. I like to start my day with a spin-off adrenal cocktail. I’ll use either fresh squeezed orange or lemon juice or bottled OJ in a pinch, just a shot for flavour. Then I do 1/2C coconut water, 1TBSP master mineral (or magnesium bicarbonate), a sprinkle of mineral rich salt and a 1/4tsp cream of tartar. Let me know if you give this a try! PS. This week the newsletter is doing a deep dive into adrenal cocktails & electrolyte balance! You can sign up at the link in my bio! If you’re interested in getting a closer look at your own mineral levels, consider working 1:1 with me. Together we go over an HTMA, bloodwork and chart a path forward for you to feel better & stay well! Dm for a discovery call.
