Vitamin C vegan capsules

The classic for a well-functioning immune system. Calcium ascorbate is particularly gentle on the stomach and has a long-lasting effect.

• Buffered vitamin C
• Gentle on the stomach + digestible
• High dose

Our vitamin C in the form of calcium ascorbate is a gentle, stomach-friendly alternative to conventional vitamin C, also known as ascorbic acid because the vitamin is chemically bound to calcium. Buffered means that it is not present as ascorbic acid, but in a basic form, making it very gentle on the stomach and well-tolerated. The entire dose is not available to the body immediately, but is absorbed over a longer period of time. This leads to positive effects on both the storage and availability of the absorbed vitamin.

What can vitamin C do?

Vitamin C is a water-soluble organic acid and involved in many metabolic processes in the body. Among other things, vitamin C has antioxidant properties. This means it captures harmful compounds, such as free radicals, and thus protects the body's cells from damage. As an antioxidant, vitamin C therefore plays a key role in protecting the immune system. Ascorbic acid also contributes to normal collagen formation. Collagen is present in almost all organs and connective tissue structures. It also contributes to normal energy metabolism and the nervous system, and it supports the absorption of iron in the intestines.

Where does vitamin C occur?

The body cannot produce vitamin C itself. It is stored in the brain, liver, spleen, lungs, the lens of the eye, and white blood cells. However, it breaks down relatively quickly in the body and is also used up quickly. Therefore, it should be consumed as consistently as possible through food or supplements. Vitamin C is found in many foods in varying concentrations. Parsley, potatoes, peppers, sauerkraut, and tomatoes contain plenty of it. Sea buckthorn, acerola, and rose hips are true vitamin C bombs. Citrus fruits, on the other hand, do not contain as much vitamin C as is often expected.

Who has an increased need for vitamin C?
There is an increased need during growth, for older people, for competitive athletes, during pregnancy, while breastfeeding, and when taking the contraceptive pill. Smoking also leads to reduced vitamin C absorption and should therefore be taken into account with supplemental vitamin C.

How much vitamin C does the body need?
Linus Pauling (Nobel Prize winner in chemistry) recommended several grams per day. Opinions differ considerably on this point. However, up to 3 g daily can be ingested orally.
