The basics

Vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid, is an essential water-soluble vitamin. It is well known for its role in supporting a healthy immune system but has many other functions. It aids in collagen production, which is crucial for skin, bone, and joint health. Additionally, it acts as a potent antioxidant, protecting our cells against oxidative stress.

The Science

Vitamin C is an essential immune system component, aiding the production and function of white blood cells, which fight off infections.

It is also involved in collagen synthesis, a protein that gives structure to our skin, hair, nails, bones, ligaments, and tendons.

As an antioxidant, Vitamin C neutralises harmful free radicals that can damage cellular structures. This antioxidant property promotes skin health by providing photoprotection and reducing photodamage. Vitamin C has also been shown to regenerate other antioxidants within the body, enhancing the overall antioxidant defence system.

How will I know its working?

You may experience a bolstered immune response, leading to fewer infections. You might also notice improvements in skin health, including more radiant, resilient skin.

When to take it?

Take 1 tablet daily with food and water, unless specified otherwise on the sachet.
