Vitamin C is a term used to describe several compounds that are considered essential for human health. There are three main forms of this vitamin - ascorbic acid, dehydroascorbic acid and erythro-transdehydroascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid is the form found in most natural sources and in our bodies. The acidic form of ascorbic acid has a strong taste and can cause foods such as tomatoes or citrus to taste sour. The other two forms taste less acidic and are called the dehydro- and erythro- forms. Dehydroascorbic acid has a stronger taste than the other forms, but all three show similar functions in our body.
Vitamin C plays an important role in maintaining healthy teeth and bones, as it helps in the formation of collagen. It also helps to maintain healthy blood vessels by creating blood proteins such as haemoglobin and myoglobin, which help to transport oxygen.

Vitamin C - 1000 mg - usually the term 'vitamin C' refers to L-ascorbic acid. Vitamin C is mainly found in plant-based diets and significant amounts can be found in rosehips, blackcurrants, strawberries, citrus fruits and vegetables such as cabbage and potatoes. Vitamin C is a perishable molecule that is particularly susceptible to heat, with the greatest losses occurring during improper food storage and heat treatment. It follows that too long and vigorous heat treatment will sterilise plants or fruit containing this type of vitamin. Therefore, it is important nowadays to supplement with additional vitamin C, as the amount consumed from food may be insufficient.
1 serving, 1 tablet per day.
