Description
Pure Encapsulations Vitamin C Chewables provide 525 mg of vitamin C in a natural orange and strawberry flavoured chewable tablet, with 60 tablets in each pack.
Key Features
- 525 mg vitamin C per tablet (656% NRV): a high-strength dose of vitamin C in a single chewable tablet, so no water is needed to take it.
- Formulated with buffered, mineral ascorbates: alongside ascorbic acid, this tablet contains calcium ascorbate and sodium ascorbate, non-acidic forms of vitamin C.
- Contributes to normal immune function and reduced tiredness: vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- Supports normal nervous system and psychological function: vitamin C also contributes to the normal functioning of the nervous system and to normal psychological function.
- Free from major allergens and artificial additives: made without wheat, eggs, tree nuts, peanuts, gluten, artificial colours, flavours, sweeteners, coatings, shellacs or GMOs.
Why does this tablet contain calcium ascorbate and sodium ascorbate as well as ascorbic acid?
Calcium ascorbate and sodium ascorbate are buffered, non-acidic forms of vitamin C. Combining them with ascorbic acid gives a high dose of vitamin C without the tablet relying solely on the more acidic ascorbic acid form.
Does this contain added sugar?
No sugar appears in the ingredient list. The tablet is sweetened with xylitol and mannitol, both sugar alcohols, rather than added sugar.
Who should check with a doctor before taking this?
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, have a health condition, or are taking any medication, speak to a healthcare professional before taking this supplement.
How long does one pack last?
Each pack contains 60 tablets. At the suggested dose of 1 to 2 tablets daily, one pack provides between 30 and 60 days' supply.
