Lamberts Cranberry Complex 100g Powder is a food supplement made from cranberry extract, with fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) and vitamin C. Each 5g serving, about one teaspoon, provides cranberry (as 2,470mg extract) at 47,000mg, and the powder is mixed into cold water or fruit juice, so it suits people who prefer not to swallow capsules. Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system.

• Suitable for vegetarians and vegans: The powder contains no animal-derived ingredients listed on the label.
