Vitamin C 30 Tablets

Vitamin C is very important as a daily supplement as it's rich in antioxidants that help maintain good health.

Vitamin C is Water soluble which means that it gets flushed out of the body, the body itself cannot produce it, so intake through diet is necessary.

Did you know?

Not all forms of vitamin C are created equal. Most vitamin C supplements contain ascorbic acid which is super effective but can cause stomach discomfort for many because of its high levels of acidity. Calcium ascorbate has a lower acidity and is therefore gentler on the digestive system.

Why we should supplement with vitamin C daily:

Vitamin C is water soluble which means that it gets flushed out of the body
The human body itself can’t produce it, so intake through diet is necessary
We don’t get enough through foods and fruits, so supplementation is key
Some medications, like aspirin, oral contraceptives, and corticosteroids, may interfere with absorption

The suggested adult intake on buffered Vitamin C is minimum of 500mg and up to 1000mg per day. If you suffer from colds and flus the intake can be increased with help of your healthcare practitioner.

People at risk of vitamin C deficiency:

Smokers and those with poor diets: Smoking and inadequate consumption of vitamin C-rich fruits and vegetables can deplete the body’s vitamin C levels.
Those with challenged digestive systems: Conditions like Crohn’s disease or celiac disease hinder proper vitamin C absorption, as does undergoing dialysis.
Elderly: Age-related changes may reduce vitamin C intake and absorption efficiency.
Regular alcohol drinkers: Excessive alcohol consumption interferes with vitamin C absorption and utilization.
People with certain chronic diseases: Conditions like diabetes or certain cancers may increase vitamin C requirements or elevate the risk of deficiency
