Each tablet contains 1000mg of vitamin C and 25mg of rosehip powder, packaged in a sustained-release tablet. This means that the vitamin C is slowly released in your digestive system. With 250 tablets and 1 tablet per day, you have a supply for over eight months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat sustained release actually means\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA regular tablet breaks down in your stomach quite quickly, after which all the vitamin C is available at the same time. With a sustained-release tablet (English for delayed or gradual release), that is different. The tablet is constructed in such a way that it dissolves slowly, allowing the vitamin C to be released over a longer period. In short: the same 1000mg, but spread over a larger part of the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVitamin C and your body\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHumans are among the few mammals that cannot produce vitamin C themselves. You are therefore dependent on food or a supplement. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system. In addition, vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of the gums, as well as the skin and cartilage. For people who exercise a lot, there is another point: vitamin C contributes to the maintenance of the normal function of the immune system during and after strenuous physical exertion. This effect is obtained with a daily intake of 200 mg of vitamin C in addition to the recommended daily amount; one tablet provides 1000 mg. And vitamin C contributes to the protection of cells against oxidative stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRosehip as a natural addition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rosehip is the fruit of the wild dog rose (Rosa canina). Our grandparents made syrup from it in the winter, precisely because of the high vitamin C content. This tablet contains 25mg of dried rosehip powder from the fruit. The majority of the vitamin C comes from ascorbic acid, the pure form of the vitamin. The rosehip powder supplements that with some from the fruit itself. By the way: it also applies to this tablet that vitamin C increases iron absorption. If you take it with a meal containing plant-based iron sources, you make use of that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to use the tablet\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause the sustained release is built into the structure of the tablet, you swallow it whole. Breaking, chewing, or crushing it is therefore not a good idea. Take it with a meal, for example at breakfast, with a large glass of water. A fixed time also helps: whoever puts the bottle next to the coffee machine or the toaster, rarely forgets it. Good to know: vitamin C contributes to the regeneration of the reduced form of vitamin E. Those two vitamins work together, so to speak, and many people therefore combine them in their daily routine. In addition, vitamin C contributes to a normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Store the bottle in a cool, dry place after opening, so that the tablets do not become damp. Moisture can damage the coating and thus also the gradual release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor those who like to take one tablet per day and prefer to get the vitamin C spread out, this is a logical choice. One tablet, one time, and the tablet does the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"NOW Foods","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54816719634770,"sku":"Now-123","price":28.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/9006\/2812\/files\/vitamine-c-1000-met-rozenbottel-sustained-release-now-foods.jpg?v=1790167032","url":"https:\/\/www.luto-supplements.nl\/en\/products\/vitamine-c-1000-met-rozenbottel-sustained-release-now-foods","provider":"LUTO Supplements","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
