Vitakruid Vitamin C 1000 with Bioflavonoids & Rosehip

Vitakruid Vitamin C 1000 with Bioflavonoids & Rosehip
Ascorbic acid is the form of vitamin C in vegetables and fruits
Ascorbic acid is by far the most well-known form of vitamin C. It is also the variant that naturally occurs in our food. Oranges, broccoli, and apples; the vitamin C in these foods is all classified under the name ascorbic acid. The often-heard argument that ascorbic acid is not such a good form of vitamin C is somewhat misplaced. Ascorbic acid from supplements has exactly the same bioavailability and absorbability as the vitamin C from the piece of fruit you eat daily!

Citrus bioflavonoids for better absorption of vitamin C
Bioflavonoids are plant nutrients also known as vitamin P. Citrus bioflavonoids can be found, among other places, in the soft white part under the skin of the citrus fruit. Unfortunately, during cooking, vitamin P disappears from our food by 70 to as much as 90 percent. Therefore, supplementation is far from an unnecessary luxury.

Research also shows that vitamin P ensures a 35 percent better absorption of vitamin C. Citrus bioflavonoids also ensure a slower absorption of ascorbic acid and a reduced excretion via urine. Better absorption and higher bioavailability were the pillars for adding vitamin P to this ascorbic acid supplement!

Rosehip extract
Rosehip is the fruit of our well-known love flower: the rose. The antioxidant already contains vitamin C on its own, which amounts to as much as 45 percent for this extract. But that is not the reason we have added a rosehip extract. The plant from which the rose comes is much more than just a symbol of love!

User-friendly due to tablet form
Furthermore, we offer you Vitamin C 1000 mg in tablet form. Supplementation in tablet form is seen as user-friendly by most people; fussing with water, stirring, and mixing is not necessary. If your preference lies with supplementation in tablet form, then Vitamin C 1000 is an excellent choice!
