Vitamin C

Why vitamin C stays popular year after year

Vitamin C supports normal immune function, collagen formation and antioxidant protection. It is also water soluble, which means your body does not store large amounts for long. That is why many people prefer a steady intake through food and, when needed, a supplement format that is easy to take consistently.

Which vitamin C format suits your day?

The best vitamin C choice is often about format, strength and who will be using it. A tablet may suit one person, while a chewable can be easier for someone who dislikes swallowing tablets.

What to look for before buying

Check the amount of vitamin C per serve, the format, and whether the formula includes cofactors such as rosehips, acerola, camu camu or citrus bioflavonoids. If you have a sensitive stomach, kidney stone history, iron overload or are taking medication, ask a healthcare professional before using high strength vitamin C.
