Instead of pure ascorbic acid, Vit4ever uses calcium L-ascorbate, a form of vitamin C bound to calcium. Two capsules per day provide you with 1000 mg of vitamin C, which is 1250% of the reference intake (RI). The bottle contains 365 capsules, so you have a supply for over half a year of daily doses at one time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin C is one of the best-known vitamins, but the form in which you take it makes more difference than you might think. For a dosage of 1000 mg per day, Vit4ever therefore opts for calcium L-ascorbate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes buffered vitamin C different from regular ascorbic acid\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference lies in the chemical form. Regular ascorbic acid is quite acidic, with a pH approaching that of vinegar. Calcium L-ascorbate, on the other hand, is \"buffered\": the acid is partially neutralized by binding it to calcium via a mineral bond, making the pH value closer to neutral. This form is therefore commonly used in higher-dosage vitamin C products. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and helps reduce tiredness and fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e1250% RI, isn't that a lot?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt first glance, 1250% of the reference intake sounds like a substantial amount. However, vitamin C is a water-soluble vitamin: whatever your body does not use, you simply excrete through your kidneys. Manufacturers therefore often choose a higher dosage than the legal minimum, precisely because excess vitamin C does not pose a problem like it can with fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K), which your body does store in fatty tissue. In addition, vitamin C helps protect cells against oxidative stress and contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism. Furthermore, vitamin C contributes to normal psychological function and the normal function of the nervous system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin C, iron absorption and collagen formation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin C increases iron absorption. In addition, vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the skin, bones, cartilage, blood vessels, teeth and gums, all tissues in which collagen plays a structural role as a kind of connective tissue scaffold. The point is that these claims are not separate: collagen is one protein, but it is incorporated into very different tissues throughout your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePractical: from capsule shell to daily intake\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVit4ever capsules contain a plant-based capsule shell (hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, also known as HPMC) instead of gelatin, making the product suitable for those who prefer not to use animal-derived ingredients. In addition, the formula contains stearic acid as an anti-caking agent, so that the powder remains easy to process during production and is distributed evenly in each capsule. With 365 capsules in the bottle and a daily dose of 2 capsules, you get over 180 daily doses, so you do not need to order a new bottle every month. For those who prefer to spread it out: you can also take the 2 capsules separately, for example one with breakfast and one later in the day, although that makes little difference to the total daily absorption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: with calcium L-ascorbate, you are choosing a form of vitamin C that is less acidic than ascorbic acid, in a high dosage per daily dose and packaged in a supply that lasts over half a year without having to order a new bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vit4ever","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43826608636124,"sku":"vit4-297","price":20.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/vit4ever-gebufferde-vitamine-c-1000mg-365-capsules-vit4ever-1.jpg?v=1793623876","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/gebufferde-vitamine-c-1000mg-365-capsules-vit4ever","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
