Solgar Vitamin C 1000 mg, 250 Vegetable Capsules - Antioxidant and Immune Support with Bioflavonoids

Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential nutrient with multiple functions in the body. According to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), vitamin C contributes to the normal functioning of the immune system, the protection of cells from oxidative damage, and the normal formation of collagen for the normal functioning of the skin, bones, cartilage, gums, and teeth. In addition, it helps increase iron absorption and contributes to normal energy metabolism.

How much vitamin C do I need per day?

The reference intake for adults in the European Union is 80 mg per day. However, many people opt for higher doses to obtain additional benefits. Solgar Vitamin C 1000 mg provides a high dose (1000 mg per capsule), ideal for those seeking extra support for their immune system or to compensate for a stressful lifestyle. It is recommended to take one capsule daily, preferably with a meal.

Types of vitamin C: ascorbic acid and bioflavonoids

This supplement contains ascorbic acid, the purest and most concentrated form of vitamin C. In addition, it includes citrus bioflavonoids, natural compounds that can improve the absorption and effectiveness of vitamin C. Bioflavonoids also act as antioxidants and support capillary and circulatory health. The combination of vitamin C with bioflavonoids is a popular option to maximize benefits.
