Vitamin C is a great supplement for our health and immunity. We offer it in capsules, tablets, powder, effervescent and liquid form. Our range also includes liposomal vitamin C, which has a better utilization. Vitamin C is also involved in the synthesis of collagen, so it is important for the strength of the ligament system and vascular walls, also supports the absorption of iron, stimulates the formation of white blood cells and generally contributes to the healthy development of our bones, teeth and cartilage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Intense training represents physical stress for the body, generating a large amount of free radicals. Vitamin C acts as a strong antioxidant that neutralizes these radicals and accelerates recovery. Furthermore, it is absolutely crucial for collagen production (health of joints, tendons, and cartilage) and helps reduce levels of the stress hormone cortisol after an exhausting workout.
Regular Vitamin C has limited absorbability and can irritate the stomach of sensitive individuals in high doses. The liposomal form encapsulates the vitamin in special microscopic bubbles (liposomes) that protect it from stomach acids. Thanks to this, it offers almost 100% absorption directly into the cells and is extremely gentle on your digestion.
Vitamin C is water-soluble, meaning the body cannot store it in long-term reserves. If you consume more than your body currently needs, you will simply and completely safely excrete the excess in your urine. However, extremely high single doses (over 2000 mg) can cause temporary digestive discomfort.
Because the body cannot process a massive dose of Vitamin C all at once (and wastefully excretes the rest), time-release tablets are a brilliant solution. They release the vitamin into the bloodstream gradually over several hours, ensuring much more efficient utilization and stable immune protection throughout the whole day.
It is best to take it together with a meal or right after it, which significantly improves its absorption and prevents potential irritation of an empty stomach. You can take it in the morning to boost your immunity for the new day, or with your post-workout meal. For maximum effect, it is recommended to split your total daily dose into two smaller portions.
