Key Benefits of Vitamin C

Vitamin C is one of the most researched nutrients, renowned for its antioxidant properties. It helps neutralise free radicals that cause oxidative stress, supporting your body's natural defence. Essential for collagen synthesis, it contributes to healthy skin, bones, tendons, and blood vessels. It also supports normal immune function and plays a role in brain, eye, heart, circulation, and joint health. By maintaining adequate vitamin C levels, you help keep these critical functions in top shape. Doctor's Best provides 1000 mg per serve to make it easy to reach the levels needed for optimal support.

Recommended Dosage and Safety

The suggested adult dose is one level scoop (approximately 1 gram) mixed into 8 ounces of fruit juice or your preferred beverage daily. It is best taken without food, or as directed by a nutritionally informed healthcare professional. As vitamin C is water-soluble, excess is generally excreted, but do not exceed the recommended dose without professional advise. If you are pregnant, nursing, or taking any medications, consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement. Always read the label and follow the directions for use.
