It is essential for the healing of wounds and repair and maintenance of cartilage, bones and teeth and can help prevent stretch marks.
NZ Blackcurrants are known as the 'King of Berries' and contain potent antioxidants have many health benefits including boosting immunity, supporting vision and eye health, cellular integrity and skin health.

- Inflammation of mucous membranes
Key Benefits:
- Fights fatigue
- Protects against oxidative stress/free radical damage
- Promotes wound healing and tissue repair
- Boosts immunity

- Necessary for synthesis of carnitine
As a water soluble essential nutrient, Vitamin C is used more rapidly when we’re stressed or unwell. It has multiple activities in the body to support the immune system, firstly it is antimicrobial, and increasing the cellular mediated response of immune cells like natural killer cells, leukocytes and others. Through this role Vitamin C boosts resistance to many microbes and helps reduces severity and length of any infection.
Vitamin C has a role in eight different enzyme reactions that synthesize collagen and carnitine. Through its role in collagen synthesis, Vitamin C is vital to growth and wound repair, strengthening blood vessel walls, repair and maintenance of tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bones and teeth. With carnitine synthesis, Vitamin C ensures that Carnitine plays its critical role in energy production at a cellular level, specifically it transports fatty acids into cells where it is burned as energy. Carnitine, another antioxidant, is active in the body to increase the rate at which fats are burned, thereby increasing the metabolic rate.
Required for healthy growth in children and in the general maintenance and repair of tissues throughout the body. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient in helping to maintain skin integrity, heal wounds, boost immunity, increase elasticity of ligaments and tendons and is crucial to every cell in the body.
Other key roles of Vitamin C include that it protects low density lipoproteins (LDLs) from free radical damage and it helps to recycle Vitamin E to help prevent further free radical damage and oxidative stress.
Some common sign and symptoms of deficiency include bleeding gums during/after brushing teeth, fatigue, frequent illness, dental carriers, bruising easily and poor wound healing. Dietary supplementation should be considered in various health conditions including growth spurts in children, premature ageing, pregnancy, low immunity, inflammation and slow would healing, sports injuries and oxidative stress.
NZ Blackcurrants are known as the 'King of Berries' and have many health promoting nutrients that have benefits to visual health, capillary tone, cellular integrity and immunity. With 100 g of blackcurrants providing more than 300% of daily-recommended intake value of Vitamin C it’s not hard to see why Blackcurrants have one of the highest anti-oxidant values (Oxygen radical absorbance capacity- ORAC) of all fruit.
