Fern-C Vitamina C 30 Cápsulas (Ascorbato Sódico)

What makes Fern-C Vitamin C special?

Fern-C Vitamin C is not your typical ascorbic acid supplement. It comes in the form of sodium ascorbate, a buffered, non-acidic variant that is gentler on the stomach. In addition, it uses Quali-C, European-sourced vitamin C recognized for its high purity and quality. But what really sets it apart is its high bioavailability: sodium ascorbate is absorbed up to 95%, meaning your body can get the most out of each capsule.

Benefits of vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with multiple functions supported by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Among its most notable benefits are:

• Normal immune system function: Helps maintain defenses in optimal conditions.
• Protection of cells from oxidative damage: Acts as an antioxidant to neutralize free radicals.

• Normal energy metabolism: Contributes to energy production at the cellular level.
• Reduction of tiredness and fatigue: Ideal for maintaining daily performance.
• Normal functioning of the nervous system and psychological function: Supports mental well-being.
• Increased iron absorption: Favors the assimilation of this mineral in the diet.

Recommended dosage

Each container contains 30 capsules. The recommended dose is 1 capsule per day, preferably with a meal. Do not exceed the indicated daily dose. Remember that food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet.

Types of vitamin C: Why choose sodium ascorbate?

Vitamin C comes in various forms. The most common is ascorbic acid, which can be irritating for people with sensitive stomachs. Sodium ascorbate, on the other hand, is a buffered (pH neutral) form that minimizes acidity. In addition, by being bound to sodium, it is absorbed more efficiently through the digestive tract. Studies indicate that sodium ascorbate reaches higher plasma levels than ascorbic acid, which translates into greater availability for tissues. Other variants include calcium ascorbate (also buffered) and liposomal vitamin C, but sodium ascorbate stands out for its balance between tolerance and absorption.

How to choose the best vitamin C

When selecting a vitamin C supplement, consider the following aspects:

• Form: Sodium ascorbate or calcium ascorbate are ideal if you are looking for something non-acidic. If you prefer maximum concentration, ascorbic acid may be suitable, provided your stomach tolerates it.
• Origin: Opt for brands that use proven quality ingredients, such as Quali-C, which guarantees purity and traceability.
• Absorption: Buffered forms usually have better bioavailability. Look for information on the absorption percentage if available.
• Dosage: 500-1000 mg per day is a usual dose for maintenance. Higher doses may be necessary in specific situations, but always under professional recommendation.
