Vitamin C, or ascorbic acid, is an essential nutrient for the proper physiological functioning of animals. Since it cannot be synthesized by the organism, its intake is recommended as a vitamin supplement for fish and shrimp. Its main function is as a powerful intracellular physiological antioxidant. It plays an important role in the defense mechanisms of crustaceans and fish; supplementation has been shown to be very necessary for animals in captivity subjected to constant stress, as well as for normal reproduction.
• Essential nutrient not synthesized by the body, requires supplementation.
• Potent intracellular antioxidant that protects cells.
• Strengthens the immune system and enhances natural defense.
• Important for reproduction and stress management in captive animals.
• Stable phosphate-bound form that protects the vitamin and improves absorption.
• Absorption occurs through enzymes that release the active vitamin for maximum assimilation.
