The Vitamin Shoppe C-1000 1000 mg, 100 cápsulas

What makes The Vitamin Shoppe's Vitamin C 1000 mg special?

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that your body needs daily. With 1000 mg per capsule, this supplement offers a high dose to help you meet your needs. Each capsule contains pure ascorbic acid, a widely studied and highly bioavailable form of vitamin C.

Furthermore, this product has been manufactured following strict quality controls and purity tests, so you can trust every dose.

Benefits of vitamin C supported by EFSA

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved several health claims for vitamin C. These include:

• Contributes to the normal function of the immune system.
• Contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative damage.
• Contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of bones, cartilage, gums, skin, and teeth.
• Contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
• Contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system.

Recommended dosage and use

The recommended dose is one capsule per day, preferably with a meal to facilitate absorption. Each package contains 100 capsules, providing a supply for more than three months of continuous use.

Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. It is important to maintain a healthy diet and an active lifestyle.

Why choose vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid?

Ascorbic acid is the most common and studied form of vitamin C. It is effectively absorbed in the small intestine and distributed throughout the body's tissues. Although some people with sensitive stomachs may prefer buffered forms (such as sodium ascorbate), ascorbic acid remains the most economical and concentrated option.

Each capsule of The Vitamin Shoppe C-1000 contains 1000 mg of pure ascorbic acid, with no unnecessary additives. This allows for precise and reliable dosing.

How to choose the best vitamin C for you

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

• Dosage: 1000 mg is a common dose for adults. If you are looking for a lower dose, 500 mg presentations are available.
