How many capsules should I take, and is there a maximum safe amount?
The suggested use is one capsule daily, preferably with a meal, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Taking less than 1,000mg of vitamin C a day from supplements is unlikely to cause harm; higher intakes may cause stomach pain, diarrhoea and flatulence, which usually stop once the supplement is stopped.
Is this product suitable for vegans?
Yes. The capsule shell is made from vegetable-derived hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose rather than gelatine, and the product is suitable for vegans, vegetarians and those following a kosher diet.
What else does vitamin C contribute to, besides immunity and collagen?
Vitamin C also contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress and to normal energy-yielding metabolism.
