Description
Solgar Ultimate B+C Complex 30 Tablets are a food supplement that provides 1000 mg of vitamin C and all eight B vitamins in each tablet, together with rose hips powder and citrus bioflavonoids. Taking 1 tablet a day gives you the full set of B vitamins and vitamin C in a single dose, and this pack of 30 tablets is a 30-day supply at that dose.
Key Features
- 1000 mg of vitamin C: Vitamin C contributes to the normal function of the immune system, to normal energy-yielding metabolism and to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- All eight B vitamins: Each tablet contains thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, biotin, folic acid and vitamin B12. Thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, vitamin B12 and biotin each contribute to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
- Reduction of tiredness and fatigue: Riboflavin, niacin, pantothenic acid, vitamin B6, folic acid, vitamin B12 and vitamin C each contribute to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue.
- Rose hips and citrus bioflavonoids: Each tablet also contains 25 mg of rose hips powder and 25 mg of citrus bioflavonoid complex, alongside the vitamin C.
- 1 tablet a day: The daily dose is a single tablet, taken preferably at mealtime.
Is Solgar Ultimate B+C Complex suitable for vegans?
Solgar lists Ultimate B+C Complex as suitable for vegans and vegetarians, and as gluten free and kosher. The tablet coating includes vegetable glycerin from palm kernel oil and coconut oil.
Can I take it with other vitamin supplements?
Check the other supplements first. Each tablet already provides 1000 mg of vitamin C and 50 mg of vitamin B6, and NHS guidance on how much of these vitamins is safe refers to the total you take from supplements each day. Adding another multivitamin, vitamin C or vitamin B6 product raises that total.
Can I take it during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
The label advises anyone who is pregnant or nursing, taking any medication or with a medical condition to speak to a healthcare practitioner before taking this product.
