Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps to reduce oxidative stress in your nervous system. It is a versatile ingredient that works with glutathione, which is included in our Restore Formula. The two together help to reduce oxidative stress and remove unwanted drug metabolites from your body that can build up over time due to long-term antidepressant use and cause unintended side effects.
