How does Comfort-C help replace essential minerals?
When the body excretes excess vitamin C, other minerals are excreted along with it. The essential minerals sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, iron, copper and zinc, as well as the undesirable pollutants lead, mercury, cadmium, and strontium are excreted along with vitamin C. The diuretic action of vitamin C increases the excretion of sodium and potassium, while the chelating action of vitamin C increases the excretion of the other minerals mentioned.
