Vitamin C 1000mg Low Acid 30/90/120/180/240 Tablets

Buffered with sodium ascorbate and calcium ascorbate alongside pure ascorbic acid, this 1000mg vitamin C is far gentler on the stomach than a standard high-strength tablet — a "tummy-friendly" form for people who find ordinary vitamin C too acidic, without dropping the dose.

Each tablet also carries 12.5mg rosehip extract (equivalent to 50mg of rosehips) and 50mg citrus bioflavonoids — the compounds that naturally accompany vitamin C in whole fruit. Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation for the normal function of skin, bones, cartilage, gums, teeth and blood vessels, supports the normal function of the immune system during and after intense physical exercise, contributes to normal energy-yielding metabolism and psychological function, helps reduce tiredness and fatigue, protects cells from oxidative stress, regenerates the reduced form of vitamin E and increases iron absorption.

Available in 30 / 90 / 120 (90+30 free) / 180 / 240 (180+60 free) Tablets

FAQs

What does “low acid” actually mean?
The vitamin C is partly buffered as calcium ascorbate and sodium ascorbate rather than being pure ascorbic acid. Those mineral salts are far less acidic, which is why this version suits people who find ordinary vitamin C harsh on the stomach.

Is this suitable for vegans?
Yes — suitable for both vegetarians and vegans, and free from GMO.

Which pack size should I choose?
All five packs are the identical formula and strength. 30 tablets is a one-month supply and 180 is six months; the 120 and 240 packs are promotional packs that include extra tablets free at the price of the smaller standard pack, so they work out cheapest per tablet.

Why are rosehip and bioflavonoids included?
In whole fruit, vitamin C never appears alone — it sits alongside bioflavonoids and other plant compounds. Including them here mirrors the way vitamin C occurs in food.

How big is the tablet?
22.5mm long and 9mm wide — a large oval tablet, as high-strength vitamin C tends to be.

When is the best time to take it?
One tablet daily with food. Taking it with a meal also helps if you are using vitamin C to improve iron absorption from that meal.
