How much Vitamin C do I need daily?

Daily Vitamin C requirements vary depending on age, sex, and lifestyle. In adults, the reference intake (RI) in the European Union is 80 mg per day. However, many people opt for higher doses, such as the 1000 mg offered by this capsule, to ensure optimal intake, especially during periods of increased physical demand or stress. It is important to remember that a 1000 mg dose may exceed basic needs, but the body eliminates the excess through urine. It is advisable to adjust the dose according to your personal needs and always respecting the product's indications.

Why choose the 1000 mg capsule form?

Capsules are a practical and precise form of supplementation. With 1000 mg per capsule, you get a high dose in a single intake, which makes it easy to integrate into your daily routine. Ascorbic acid is the purest and most economical form of Vitamin C, and in this presentation, it is offered without unnecessary additives. Ecological Formulas is a brand recognized for its commitment to the quality and purity of its ingredients, which guarantees you a reliable product.

What to consider when choosing a Vitamin C supplement?

When selecting a Vitamin C supplement, consider the form (ascorbic acid, ascorbate, liposomal), the dose, and the brand's reputation. Vitamin C in the form of ascorbic acid is well absorbed by the body, although some people with sensitive stomachs may prefer buffered versions. In this case, the product offers pure ascorbic acid, ideal for those who tolerate this form well. In addition, verify that the packaging protects the content from light and humidity, as is the case with this bottle of 120 capsules.
