Yumivits Vitamin C Supplement 250 mg Kids Lozenges Orange Flavor is a food supplement provides Vitamin C in the form of delicious lozenges with juicy orange flavor. Pleasant sweetness comes from the use of Finnish xylitol (a plant-derived substance extracted from the birch tree) and steviol glycosides (from stevia leaves, a South American plant with a very low glycemic index, 300 times sweeter than sugar). Vitamin C has a positive impact on the functioning of immune system, helping to maintain proper functioning of the nervous system and normal psychological functions. Vitamin C contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and helps to protect cells from oxidative stress, when exposed to free radicals.
